Food Packaging and Preservation: Antimicrobial Materials and Technologies provides a scaffolded introduction to principles of biological science (food contamination and their effect on human health) as well as nanomaterials, natural antimicrobials and emerging non-thermal processing methods. The book's goal is to help users develop sustainable usage of these materials and technologies. It is designed to help researchers in food technology, materials science, nanoscience, and polymer science, but it will also be ideal for researchers and developers who develop antimicrobial technologies for food industry applications, in particular food packaging and the preservation of food products. Thoroughly explores the application of nanomaterials, nanocomposites, antimicrobial materials from natural sources, and emerging non-thermal processing technologies Covers nanomaterials, natural extracts and their usage in micro and nanoemulsion form Examines non- thermal processing methods and their combinations for food packaging and food preservation INDICE: Section 1. Antimicrobial materials for food packaging and preservation1. Microbial contamination of food2. Antimicrobial nanoparticles in food preservation3. Biopolymer-based antimicrobial nanocomposite material for food packaging and preservation4. Plastic and bioplastic-based nanocomposite material for food packaging and preservation5.
