Trends in Food Science & Technology, Journal Year: 2020, Volume and Issue: 97, P. 196 - 209

Published: Jan. 9, 2020

Demand for healthy and safe food with minimal use of synthetic inputs (including preservatives) is increasing rapidly. Plastic polymers being hazardous to the environment, significant efforts have been devoted evaluate various bio-based as alternatives plastic packaging. Chitin its deacetylated derivative, chitosan, primarily a by-product crustacean, fish seafood processing handling. Chitosan possesses antimicrobial activities film forming property, making them attractive biopolymers packaging preservation applications applied through spraying, dipping, coating, or wrapping by films. This comprehensive review contemporary research focuses on chitosan based nanocomposites in area preservation. It includes different properties functionalities blends their fabrication techniques, shelf life extension fruits, vegetables, meat products. an alternative plastics due biodegradability, activity, properties. Incorporation nanomaterials into food-packaging systems can prevent growth spoilage pathogenic microorganisms, improve quality safety, extend shelf-life food. has reported that chitosan-based films coatings treatments resulted fresh produce, products, bread, dairy products such cheese which highlighted.

Peptides and protein hydrolysates as food preservatives and bioactive components of edible films and coatings - A review

Trends in Food Science & Technology, Journal Year: 2020, Volume and Issue: 106, P. 298 - 311

Published: Oct. 11, 2020

The consumer demand for food that is minimally processed and does not include artificial additives makes it necessary to look new natural sources of preservatives active packaging extends the shelf-life products. Protein hydrolysates biologically peptides isolated from proteins, due their antioxidant antimicrobial activity, can be used as preservatives. In addition, possible them in materials ingredients. this paper, possibilities using protein biopeptides are characterized ingredients extending by adding directly products, or biodegradable edible packaging. full implementation bioactive hydrolysate postponed some challenges such low chemical stability, bitter taste short-term effectiveness. Encapsulation, which also discussed work, could help overcome these limitations. It has been found added already small doses, mostly inhibit fat oxidation growth microorganisms. Edible with have shown effectiveness inhibiting pathogenic microorganisms lipid oxidation, improving safety. several studies, significant changes indicated mechanical properties surface morphology films addition peptides. Nonetheless, direction depends on type incorporated hydrolysates. a promising alternative synthetic biopolymer films. However, further research should carried out, focusing search compounds assessing

Published: Feb. 15, 2023

Food packaging systems are continually impacted by the growing demand for minimally processed foods, changing eating habits, and food safety risks. Minimally foods prone to growth of harmful microbes, compromising quality safety. As a result, need improved shelf life protection against foodborne diseases alongside consumer preference with no or lesser synthetic additives foster development innovative technologies such as antimicrobial packaging. It is form active that can release substances suppress activities specific microorganisms, thereby improving during long-term storage. However, continues be very challenging technology. This study highlights concepts, providing different used in We review various types systems. Emphasis given effectiveness applications, including fresh fruit vegetables meat dairy products. For packaging, several approaches have been used, use sachets inside films, coatings incorporating agents. Due their activity capacity extend life, regulate inhibit microorganisms ultimately reduce potential risk health hazards, natural agents gaining significant importance attention developing Selecting best system particular product depends on its nature, desired storage requirements, legal considerations.
