A review on intelligent food packaging as innovation strategies for the future
Session
Agriculture, Food Science and Technology
Description
Food packaging is an integral part of the food industry associated with food quality and safety including food shelf life, and communications from the marketing perspective. Food safety is a major factor affecting public health. Therefore, nowadays based on consumer requirements are developed new methods to produce innovative food packaging which protects the food quality and monitors food products during their shelf' life. The purpose of this paper is to review the latest trends in the development of innovative packaging for food quality monitoring as a way to inform consumers about food quality and to reduce food loss, avoid food poisoning and consumer satisfaction can be optimized. One of the innovative food packaging is Intelligent packaging which contains an external or internal indicator that monitored the conditions of packaged foods and gives information to users about the food quality during their storage and transport and also informs consumers when the package has been tampered. The innovative technology discussed here holds great potential for applications in food packaging and brings us one step closer to enabling real-time monitoring of food throughout the supply chain. Substances used to monitor food quality like sensors, biosensors, other indicators, may be in contact with food, and must be authorized in the context of food legislation, and may be used only within the authorized limits.
Keywords:
smart packaging, innovative packaging, food quality, real-time monitoring, sensors, biosensors.
