Abstract

Owing to the rising consumer awareness and demands for quality foods with eco-friendly packaging, researchers have shifted their focus to sustainable advancements in active packaging systems that preserve food quality and sensory characteristics over time. The inclusion of antimicrobial agents into the biopolymer-based edible films has been a significant advancement in active food packaging technology. It is exceptionally efficient in inhibiting or killing the pathogenic/spoilage microbes causing food contamination. It can reduce the potential undesirable flavors produced due to the direct incorporation of active compounds in foods. The efficiency of synergism of antimicrobial bio-based packaging systems has been further enhanced by applying nanotechnological concepts such as bio-nanocomposites and nanoencapsulation systems. This review analyzes the current scenario and applications of antimicrobial biodegradable films in the food packaging industry while highlighting the ongoing research investigations on the implementation of nanotechnology to develop novel bio-based packaging systems.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
