“…Edible coatings and edible films belong to the modern food protection system; over the past few years, interest in the use of edible coatings for perishable foods has considerably increased due to their advantages and potential applications [14]. Edible active films can function either by releasing the active agents into the surrounding atmosphere or through the absorption of components that can deteriorate the quality of food such as oxygen, moisture and free radicals [15]. Active agents with antimicrobial properties may help to extend the shelf life and maintain quality and food safety by increasing the lag phase and slowing the growth phase of microorganisms [16].…”

Pomegranate fruit contains high content of phytochemical constituents which have many health benefits. Peel and rind are wastes of pomegranate fruit processing, represent up to 50% of its weight. This study aimed to evaluate the ethanolic extract of pomegranate fruit parts: arils, rind and peel as sources of bioactive compounds as well as their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities for their application as an active edible film. Results clearly demonstrated that peel extract (PE) had the highest content of total phenolics and flavonoids (342 mg GAE /g and 82.33mg catechol /g, respectively) followed by rind extract (RE) containing 213.00 mg GAE/g and 70.50 mg catechol /g, respectively, and finally arils extract (AE) (108.22 mg GAE /g and 55.58 mg catechol/g), respectively. Results indicated that total anthocyanins content was concentrated in PE (15.24mg Cynidian-3-glycoside/g) and AE (11.04 mg Cynidian-3-glycoside/g), while RE (6.51 mg Cynidian-3-glycoside/g) had the lowest value. Peel extract exhibited the highest antioxidant activity followed by RE and were significantly higher than that of AE. These results were confirmed with the DPPH and ABTS + assays. Consequently, PE followed by RE had higher antimicrobial activity against several pathogenic strains than AE and can be used as natural preservative for food. Peel extract and RE were incorporated into pectin film at concentration of 15 mg/ml to develop an active edible film. Pectin film without the tested fruit parts extract was used as the control film. The obtained results revealed that the film prepared from pectin with PE and RE was successfully developed and considers as an active edible film with antioxidant and antimicrobial properties.

“…Among the types of packaging used for foods, there are passive and active packaging [3] . The latter is used due to its performance under changing environmental conditions to maintain the sensorial properties of the food contents, thus providing quality assurance, increase of shelf lifetime, besides considerations of hygiene and food safety [4,5] . There are various types of active packaging [3] , among which antimicrobial stands out, developed in order to reduce the microbial growing on the food surface [6] .…”

“…Various methods for prolonging the shelf life of white button mushrooms have been proposed, ranging from freezing, salting, canning, washing with preservatives and cooling to active and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) . MAP appears to be the most promising approach, since it does not include direct chemical reactions or the use of preservatives, which are strictly controlled by EU regulations . Moreover, MAP is economically advantageous, especially for mushrooms with a high price and a short shelf life …”
