Abstract:Currently, there is an increased demand for advanced food packages, which can significantly increase the shelf life of food items. In the current context, it is envisaged that nanotechnology has the potential to address stability, toxicity, shelf-life, and low-cost issues of antimicrobials associated with the packaging industry. Antimicrobial nanocomposite systems are believed to be more efficient than their microscale counterparts due to the high surface area to volume ratio and quantum mechanical involvement… Show more
