ABSTRACT
This new volume explores the recent innovations in active, intelligent, and smart packaging systems that embrace packaging potential to not only provide protection to food but to also improve its nutritive value, reduce contamination by releasing antimicrobials, and provide real-time status of food quality. The book presents novel edible food packaging, nanotechnology-based improvements in food packaging, and biodegradation and bio-based approaches for management of food waste and plastic waste from packaging.
