Biodegradable films based on pure gelatin (GEL100), chitosan (CH100) and sodium caseinate (SCas100), and gelatin-chitosan (GEL50CH50) and gelatin‑sodium caseinate (GEL50SCas50) blends, without or with boldo-of-Chile leafs extract (BoC) were studied. The solubility in water (%) of all the pure films was analyzed. Moreover, the disintegration process was evaluated throughout the mass loss (%), structural (FTIR) changes and visual analyses of films up to 5 days of composting conditions. The Boltzmann function allowed obtaining the half-maximal disintegration time (t50) of all the films. Only Scas100 films exhibited complete solubility in water, compared to the other films (P less then 0.05). At day 1, SCas100 + B film exhibited total mass loss, meanwhile for the other film samples this parameter varied between 47.9 ± 3.0% (CH100 + B) and 6.8 ± 1.3% (GEL100 + B) (P less then 0.05). FTIR analysis showed some changes in the intensity of the typical bands of the pure or blended films. Photographs registered exhibited the complete disintegration of all films into 5 days. Finally, Boltzmann equation displayed that pure SCas100 film disintegrated in the shortest time (0.500 days), and GEL50CH50 blended film in the longest time (1.766 days). In conclusion, the results of this work show an appropriate and complete disintegration of all studied films in composting conditions. Auricularia mushrooms are known for their bioactive compounds, mostly polysaccharides, which have numerous biological activities, such as antioxidant, antitumor, immunomodulatory, hyperlipidemic, antidiabet
