“…Wrappings in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films with Ag NPs have been found to lengthen the sustainability of chicken fillets [167]. Moreover, the exposure of the films to UV radiation for 20 minutes exhibited a bactericidal effect on Pseudomonas fluorescens (P. fluorescens) and S. aureus [169].…”

Her expertise includes membrane synthesis and characterization, membrane application for water purification and wastewater treatment, membrane fouling, water disinfection technology, and adsorption. She had published more than 44 research articles, 22 conference proceedings, and 3 book chapters. Dr. Ebrahim Mahmoudi is working as a senior lecturer at UKM. He is researching separation and purification using polymeric membranes and membrane bioreactors. Current Approaches for the Exploration of Antimicrobial Activities of NanoparticlesInfectious diseases of bacterial and viral origins contribute to substantial mortality worldwide. Collaborative efforts have been underway between academia and the industry to develop technologies for a more effective treatment for such diseases. With their utility in various industrial applications, nanoparticles (NPs) offer promising potential as antimicrobial agents against bacterial and viral infections. NPs have been established to possess potent antimicrobial activities against various types of pathogens due to their unique characteristics and cell-damaging ability through several mechanisms. The recent accepted antimicrobial mechanisms possess by NPs include metal ion release, oxidative stress induction, and non-oxidative mechanisms. Another merit of NPs lies in the low likelihood of the development of microbial tolerance towards NPs,given the multiple simultaneous mechanisms of action against the pathogens targeting numerous gene mutations in those pathogens. Moreover, NPs provide a fascinating opportunity to curb microbial growth before infections: this outstanding feature has led to their utilization as active antimicrobial agents in different industrial applications, e.g. the coating of medical devices, incorporation in food packaging, promoting wound healing, and encapsulation with other potential materials for wastewater treatment. This review discusses the progress and achievements in the antimicrobial applications of NPs, factors contributing to their actions, mechanisms underlying their efficiency, and risks of their applications, including the antimicrobial action of metal nanoclusters (NCs).The review concludes with a discussion of the restrictions in present studies and future prospects of nanotechnology-based NPs development.

Food packaging has a crucial function in the modern food industry. New food packaging technologies seek to meet consumers and industrial's demands. Changes related to food production, sale practices and consumers' lifestyles, along with environmental awareness and the advance in new areas of knowledge (such as nanotechnology or biotechnology), act as driving forces to develop smart packages that can extend food shelf-life, keeping and supervising their innocuousness and quality and also taking care of the environment. This review describes the main concepts and types of active and intelligent food packaging, focusing on recent progress and new trends using biodegradable and biobased polymers. Numerous studies show the great possibilities of these materials. Future research needs to focus on some important aspects such as possibilities to scale-up, costs, regulatory aspects, and consumers' acceptance, to make these systems commercially viable.

“…Synthetic antimicrobial agents are frequently used due to their excellent performance. [176][177][178][179][180][181][182] However, the addition of synthetic antimicrobial compound may cause lack of natural flavor. The awareness of consumers about their potential toxicity also limits their use in food packaging applications.…”

The utilization of lipids is presently in the spotlight of food industry as they are one of novel renewable and sustainable raw materials. Lipids derived materials are considered as a promising alternate to petro‐based polymers as they are sustainable, biorenewable, biodegradable, and environmentally benign. These unique attributes draw the attention of scientific community for the use of lipids in food packaging applications with a potential to compete with fossil fuel derived polymers. This paper reviews recent advances in the use of lipids and their effect on the barrier, antimicrobial, antioxidant, and mechanical properties of films, coating and nanocomposites for food packaging applications. Modification of lipids and its chemical interactions with other biopolymers during processing for the synthesis of different materials are also discussed. Global patents and research trend in use of lipids for the preparation of biocomposites are also described. The role of lipids in the circular economy is highlighted and life cycle assessment of lipids derived products is outlined with examples. The review is concluded with synoptic view of existing and forthcoming potential use of lipids in various food packaging applications.
