Fish gelatin has gained importance in recent years as a result of the outbreak of bovine spongiform encephalopathy, and the banning of collagen from pig skin and bone in some regions for religious reasons. Furthermore, fish skin, which is a major byproduct of the fish-processing industry, causing waste and pollution, could provide a valuable source of gelatin (Badii & Howell, 2006). With the appropriate film forming properties and good barriers against oxygen and aromas at low and intermediate relative humidity, gelatin is suitable for production of biodegradable packaging materials, as reviewed by G๓mez-Guill้n et al. (2009b). However, gelatin has relatively poor water barrier and mechanical properties, which is the main drawbacks of gelatin films for application as packaging material (Chiou et al., 2008). One of the effective strategies, allowing maintaining the biodegradability, is to elaborate biocomposites by association of fish gelatin with other biopolymers exhibiting film forming properties and derived from renewable resources.
