Lipids and biopackaging

Abstract: Packaging is important to preserve food quality. It is a barrier to water vapor, gas, aroma, and solute migration between the food and the environment. With the recent increase in ecological consciousness, research has turned toward finding biodegradable materials. The different kinds of biopackaging are discussed with special focus on edible films. The aim of this review is to focus on the influence of lipids used in edible films, mainly for their efficiency as water-vapor barriers. The structure, degree of s… Show more

“…To ensure profitable sales, the deep-fat-fried banana chips have to be shelf-stable and crisp when they are consumed (Sacharow and Griffin 1980). In the processing and storage of banana chips, proper packaging is important to preserve the quality during storage and marketing (Callegarin et al 1997;Juin et al 1982).…”

“…Coatings and films based on cellulose derivatives are generally transparent, flexible, odour-free, tasteless, water soluble, and resistant to O 2 and CO 2 . WVP of these films is highly influenced by the hydrophobic: hydrophilic ratio of film components Callegarin et al, 1997). CMC has been found to reduce oil uptake in fried potatoes, particularly in combination with a blanching or calcium chloride pre-treatment.…”
