“…Food undergoes spoilage due to microbial contamination, enzymatic degradation, oxidation, excess of ethylene, uncontrolled temperature, undesirable moisture, and inadequate pH. Several techniques are implemented to avoid food spoilage, maintain quality and prevent wastage throughout the supply chain (Kumar et al 2021a ; de Souza et al 2018 ; Gupta et al 2021b ). But currently used techniques are not effective enough and have an adverse effect on the environment (Gupta et al 2021b ; Pandiselvam et al 2019 ).…”

Food wastage is a major concern for sustainable health and agriculture. To reduce food waste, classical preservation techniques such as drying, pasteurization, freeze-drying, fermentation, and microwave are available. Nonetheless, these techniques display shortcomings such as alteration of food and taste. Such shortcomings may be solved by active food packaging, which involves the incorporation of active agents into the packaging material. Recently, metal–organic frameworks, a class of porous hybrid supramolecular materials, have been developed as an active agent to extend food shelf life and maintain safety. Here, we review metal–organic frameworks in active packaging as oxygen scavengers, antimicrobials, moisture absorbers, and ethylene scavengers. We present methods of incorporation of metal–organic frameworks into packaging materials and their applications.

“…On a commercial scale, carrageenan is used as an additive in the food processing industry, as stabilizers, gelling agents, thickeners, etc. However, owing to its inherent properties, it is also used as the base material for the production of bio-based packaging materials [41]. In addition, bio-nano-composite films of carrageenan have an enhanced biodegradability index, which can mitigate environmental impacts [42].…”

Due to their complete non-biodegradability, current food packages have resulted in major environmental issues. Today’s smart consumer is looking for alternatives that are environmentally friendly, durable, recyclable, and naturally rather than synthetically derived. It is a well-established fact that complete replacement with environmentally friendly packaging materials is unattainable, and bio-based plastics should be the future of the food packaging industry. Natural biopolymers and nanotechnological interventions allow the creation of new, high-performance, light-weight, and environmentally friendly composite materials, which can replace non-biodegradable plastic packaging materials. This review summarizes the recent advancements in smart biogenic packaging, focusing on the shift from conventional to natural packaging, properties of various biogenic packaging materials, and the amalgamation of technologies, such as nanotechnology and encapsulation; to develop active and intelligent biogenic systems, such as the use of biosensors in food packaging. Lastly, challenges and opportunities in biogenic packaging are described, for their application in sustainable food packing systems.

“…A paucity of research has been performed on semi-refined carrageenan-based films due to various impurities that alter the mechanical and optical characteristics of the film. When specific ions such as calcium (Ca 2+ ) and potassium (K + ) are present, carrageenan has exhibited easy ionic cross-linking [ 2 , 3 , 5 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 ].…”

“…It has been demonstrated that incorporating nanofillers or plasticising reagents is crucial to enhancing the sorption capabilities of hydrophilic polymeric materials [ 43 ]. One method is to use nanoclays, nanofibres, and nanocrystals as nanofillers to reinforce the biodegradable polymers [ 39 ]. The mechanical, water vapour barrier, and UV barrier qualities of carrageenan films can all be enhanced by the addition of beneficial nanomaterials [ 40 ].…”

Recent Developments and Formulations for Hydrophobic Modification of Carrageenan Bionanocomposites

Versatility of the anionic algal polysaccharide carrageenan has long been discussed and explored, especially for their affinity towards water molecules. While this feature is advantageous in certain applications such as water remediation, wound healing, etc., the usefulness of this biopolymer is extremely limited when it comes to applications such as food packaging. Scientists around the globe are carrying out research works on venturing diverse methods to integrate a hydrophobic nature into these polysaccharides without compromising their other functionalities. Considering these foregoing studies, this review was designed to have an in-depth understanding of diverse methods and techniques adopted for tuning the hydrophobic nature of carrageenan-based bionanocomposites, both via surface alterations or by changes made to their chemical structure and attached functional groups. This review article mainly focused on how the hydrophobicity of carrageenan bionanocomposites varied as a function of the type and refinement of carrageenan, and with the incorporation of additives including plasticisers, nanofillers, bioactive agents, etc. Incorporation of nanofillers such as polysaccharide-based nanoparticles, nanoclays, bioceramic and mineral based nanoparticles, carbon dots and nanotubes, metal oxide nanoparticles, etc., along with their synergistic effects in hybrid bionanocomposites are also dealt with in this comprehensive review article.
