Antimicrobial polymeric packaging systems can be considered an emerging technology that could have an important impact on shelf life extension and food safety. Novel polymeric-based packaging materials are continually being developed. This book collects carefully chosen examples of the most recent and relevant advances in the preparation and characterization of antimicrobial composites for food packaging applications. Different polymer nanocomposites with improved packaging properties are discussed along with their mechanisms of action. Further, future perspectives for antimicrobial polymeric nanomaterials are provided.Research & information: generalbicssccoatingsEucomis comosa extractantibacterialantimicrobial propertiesantimicrobialEVOHessential oilscarvacrolhalloysite nanotubesmultilayered filmsstrawberrynano-Ag packagingstoragequality changeantibacterial activityfood packagingorange oilpectin filmbionanocompositespolyhydroxybutyratebacterial celluloseantimicrobial activitythermal propertiespackagingmorphologyPolylactic acid (PLA)TiO2 nanoparticlespolymer nanocompositesantibacterial packagingcinnamon extraction oilalgaebiodegradationshelf-lifechitosancomposite filmscross-linkingphysical propertiesbacteriostasis propertiesantiradical activityhydroxypropylmethylcelluloseligninpathogenic microorganismsorganosolvblackberryarrowroot starchgum arabicfreeze-dryingwater solubilitywater vapor permeabilityanthocyaninsantioxidant capacitypowderZnAl hydroxidehybridurea methodchitosan amountpoly(lactic acid)thymolβ-cyclodextrinantifungal activitymetal oxide nanoparticlesvegetable oilsthermosetting polymersantibacterial propertiesnanocompositesreactive oxygen speciesResearch & information: generalDíez-Pascual Anaedt0Díez-Pascual AnaothBOOK9910557632703321Antimicrobial Polymer-Based Materials for Food Packaging Applications3015787UNINA
