Foods, Journal Year: 2025, Volume and Issue: 14(3), P. 447 - 447

Published: Jan. 29, 2025

The application of smart packaging technology in fruit and vegetable preservation has shown significant potential with the ongoing advancement science technology. Smart leverages advanced sensors, materials, Internet Things (IoT) technologies to monitor regulate storage environment fruits vegetables real time. This approach effectively extends shelf life, enhances food safety, reduces waste. principle behind involves real-time monitoring environmental factors, such as temperature, humidity, gas concentrations, precise adjustments based on data analysis ensure optimal conditions for vegetables. encompass various functions, including antibacterial action, humidity regulation, control. These functions enable automatically adjust its internal according specific requirements different vegetables, thereby slowing growth bacteria mold, prolonging freshness, retaining nutritional content. Despite advantages, widespread adoption faces several challenges, high costs, limited material diversity reliability, lack standardization, consumer acceptance. However, matures, costs decrease, degradable materials are developed, is expected play a more prominent role preservation. Future developments likely focus innovation, deeper integration IoT big data, promotion environmentally sustainable solutions, all which will drive industry toward greater efficiency, intelligence, sustainability.

Recent Advances in Cellulose Nanofiber Modification and Characterization and Cellulose Nanofiber-Based Films for Eco-Friendly Active Food Packaging

Foods, Journal Year: 2024, Volume and Issue: 13(24), P. 3999 - 3999

Published: Dec. 11, 2024

There is growing interest in the use of bio-based materials as viable alternatives to petrochemical-based packaging. However, practical application films often hampered by their poor barrier and mechanical properties. In this context, cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) have attracted considerable attention owing exceptional biodegradability, high aspect ratio, large surface area. The extraction CNFs from agricultural waste or non-food biomass represents a sustainable approach that can effectively balance cost environmental impacts. functionalization improves economics raw production processes while expanding applications. This paper reviews recent advances nanofibers, including sources, modification, characterization techniques. Furthermore, we systematically discuss interactions with different composites development functional food films. Finally, highlight nanofiber preservation. Due environmentally friendly properties, are promising alternative petroleum-based plastics. aim present latest discoveries exploring future prospects for edible films, thereby encouraging further research field active
