Abstract

The lifestyle of consumers along with the desire to consume naturally healthy beneficial products has increased the demand for production of fresh produce. Minimally processed fruits and vegetables deteriorate over time, either by means of microbial activity or by physicochemical reactions with the food environment. Therefore, the food industry is investigating ways to protect the integrity and quality of their products by developing better packaging technologies that can maintain or improve the quality attributes of fresh produce, as well as extend their shelf life and ensure the microbiological stability.
