Application of Cold Plasma Technology on the Postharvest Preservation of In-Packaged Fresh Fruit and Vegetables: Recent Challenges and Development

Food and Bioprocess Technology, Год журнала: 2024, Номер unknown

Опубликована: Апрель 1, 2024

Abstract Cold plasma, an emerging and versatile non-thermal technology, has gained substantial attention, particularly in the domain of surface modification, specifically within context packaging films. Recent developments cold plasma technology have unveiled its potential to improve various aspects packaged films, including chemical composition, physical attributes, structural characteristics, overall functionality. These enhancements encompass roughness, contact angles, flexibility, thermal stability, barrier properties, antimicrobial efficacy. The imperative for advancement expansion decay-control technologies is crucial, not only preserving quality fresh fruits vegetables but also mitigating biological risks throughout postharvest, processing, storage. This, turn, extends shelf life these products. This review aims comprehensively outline systems utilized in-package (CP) treatments their interactions with key parameters that significantly influence efficacy process on vegetables. In this order, furnishes a comprehensive understanding mechanisms through which impacts characteristics diverse paper examines inhibiting spoilage pathogenic microorganisms, deactivating enzymes, altering physical, mechanical, during packaging. Furthermore, It deals effect increasing edible alongside utilization as agent food

Thermoplastic sugar palm starch reinforced graphene nanoplatelets for sustainable biocomposite films

BioResources, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 19(1), С. 1526 - 1541

Опубликована: Янв. 16, 2024

Graphene nanoplatelets (GNP) were incorporated into thermoplastic starch (TPS) films, and effects on water absorption mechanical properties investigated. GNP inclusion formed a barrier that significantly reduced absorption, resulting in denser TPS/GNP films. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) revealed changes chemical interactions, FESEM analysis showed improved dispersion at this concentration. Water contact angle results indicated increased hydrophobicity with higher content. Positive influences properties, such as tensile strength Young’s modulus, observed 12 wt% GNP, but excessive content caused agglomeration ductility. The study highlight the potential of GNP-reinforced TPS films for resistance emphasizing need careful optimization future research.

The aim of this study was to develop gelatin-based films incorporating Melaleuca alternifolia essential oil (MEO) and assess their application on refrigerated chicken breasts. results showed that MEO exhibited antimicrobial activity against Pseudomonas aeruginosa Salmonella sp., with inhibition zones 17 mm 9 mm, respectively. minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) 10% for P. 15% demonstrating greater efficacy aeruginosa. antioxidant analysis using the ABTS method revealed 1309 ± 18.0 μM Trolox/g, while FRAP resulted in 446 5.78 FeSO4/g. characterization by gas chromatography identified major compounds, including 2-carene, γ-terpinene, terpine-4-ol, α-terpineol. Incorporating into gelatin structural changes, such as an increase thickness (from 0.059 0.127 mm) water vapor permeability. Furthermore, addition conferred homogeneous properties no visible cracks. incorporation has shown activity, a significant higher concentrations. packaged samples retained more mass than control group, which lost about 90% its weight during storage. Texture only 8% variation Melaleuca-coated compared 19.6% group. These findings indicate containing effectively improve shelf life

Isolation and Characterization of Cellulose Nanocrystals from Bacterial Cellulose Synthesized via Ancylobacter sp. STN1A Using Residual Glycerol

Polymers, Год журнала: 2025, Номер 17(9), С. 1240 - 1240

Опубликована: Май 1, 2025

Given the growing interest in functional properties of nanocellulosic forms, bacterial cellulose nanocrystals (BCNCs) have gained attention as sustainable, high-performance materials for diverse applications. Although recent research has addressed use agro-industrial waste BCNCs production, limited been given to residual crude glycerol, a widespread byproduct biodiesel industry. Therefore, this work aimed synthesize and thoroughly characterize from nanocellulose (BNC) obtained through metabolism glycerol via novel strain Ancylobacter sp. STN1A. The influence sulfuric acid (H2SO4) hydrolysis time on BCNCs´ morphology physicochemical was evaluated. Severe conditions yielded shorter, narrower (0.91 μm × 40 nm; L/D = 22.8) with increased crystallinity (63%) high colloidal stability (-40.17 ± 0.68 mV), well slightly reduced thermal stability. In contrast, milder produced longer (1.13 42 26.9) similarly zeta potential (-44.13 0.73 while maintaining crystalline features starting BNC. These findings demonstrate tailor controlled support viability producing versatile byproducts, contributing both cost-effective production environmental sustainability.
