| Abstract |
Active packaging that prolongs food shelf life, maintaining its quality and safety, is an increasing industrial demand, especially if integrated in a circular economy model. In this study, the fabrication and characterization of sustainable cellulose-based active packaging using food-industry waste and natural extracts as antioxidant agents was assessed. Grape marc, olive pomace and moringa leaf extracts obtained by supercritical fluid, antisolvent and maceration extraction in different solvents were compared for their antioxidant power and phenolic content. Grape and moringa macerates in acetone and methanol, as the most efficient and cost-effective extracts, were incorporated in the packaging as coatings or in-between layers. Both systems showed significant freeradical protection in vitro (antioxidant power 50%) and more than 50% prevention of ground beef lipid peroxidation over 16 days by indirect TBARS and direct in situ Raman microspectroscopy measurements. Therefore, these systems are promising for industrial applications and more sustainable farm-to-fork food production systems. |
