Food waste and food by-products have gained considerable attention in recent years. Based on the principles of circular economy, these materials can be used for preparation novel biodegradable packaging preservation. Among matrices that been well exploited, poly-lactic acid (PLA) comprises a key material to fortified with by-products, as shown by numerous studies literature. In this context, aim present review was provide an overview literature most trends use PLA prepare films shelf-life extension foods animal or plant origin. The results showed origin has greatly expanded last 20 application led stability. However, there is still gap specific origin, such peels, seeds, gels (i.e., onion grape seed extract, pomace, prickly pear cladode gel) whey, collagen, gelatin), PLA-based films. review, which thematic issue ongoing doctoral study, examines challenges regard topic not extensively studied.
