Changes in the Physicochemical and Microbial Properties of Fresh-cut Cucumber during Storage as Affected by Modified Atmosphere Packaging and Films of polypropylene Containing Clay Nanoparticles
Background and Objectives: Food packaging is one of the main applications of nanotechnology in the food section. Clay nanoparticles are among the nanoparticles used in food packaging. In this study, the effect of packaging film containing nano-clay particles on the characteristics of cucumber slices was investigated. Materials & Methods: The effect of nano-clay particles (0, 1 and 3%) and ...
متن کاملModelling respiration rate of fresh fruits and vegetables for modified atmosphere packages: a review
Respiration rate and gas exchange through the package material are the processes involved in creating a modified atmosphere inside a package that will extend shelf life of fresh fruits and vegetables. Thus, modelling respiration rate of the selected produce is crucial to the design of a successful modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) system. In this paper, general aspects of the respiration proc...
متن کاملEnzymatic browning and its control in fresh-cut produce
Purpose of review: Enzymatic browning of fruits and vegetables during postharvest handling and processing degrades the sensory properties and nutritional value and discourages consumer purchase of fresh-cut products. Consequently, enzymatic browning results in significant economic losses for the fresh produce industry. This paper discusses the biochemistry of enzymatic browning, and focuses on ...
متن کاملA Decision Support System to design modified atmosphere packaging for fresh produce based on a bipolar flexible querying approach
18 To design new packaging for fresh food, stakeholders of the food 19 chain express their needs and requirements, according to some goals 20 and objectives. These requirements can be gathered into two groups: 21 (i) fresh food related characteristics and (ii) packaging intrinsic charac22 teristics. Modified Atmosphere Packaging (MAP) is an efficient way to 23 delay senescence and spoilage and ...
متن کاملApplication of Modified Atmosphere Packaging and Related Technology in Postharvest Handling of Fresh Fruits and Vegetables
Fruits and vegetables are important source of carbohydrates, proteins, organic acids, vitamins and minerals for human nutrition. When plants or plant parts are used by humans, whether for food, or for aesthetic purpose, there is always a postharvest component. Postharvest losses in fresh fruits and vegetables may occur anywhere from the point where the food has been harvested or gathered up to ...
