Abstract

Globally, it is estimated that about one third of the food destined for human consumption is wasted each year, a total of about 1.3 billion tons. This staggering amount of food waste is a serious problem in the food supply chain. However, the development and use of smart-responsive packaging materials has the potential to reduce food waste and extend shelf life. For example, some novel materials such as composite films with photocatalytic properties have been developed for fruit packaging, which can preserve strawberries for an extended period. However, existing smart packaging materials still face challenges in providing efficient, flexible and timely response. Furthermore, health threats from current packaging systems are a concern. For instance, residual chemicals from processing techniques and the excessive release of active molecules, such as some nanomaterials used in packaging, can threaten human health. Therefore, further development and optimization of smart packaging materials that can timely respond to changes in the storage micro-environment are crucial for food preservation. This article provides an overview of the latest advances in smart responsive packaging that employ multiple stimulus responses, summarizing the response mechanisms and application advances of temperature, humidity, gas, pH, and light smart responsive packaging. In addition, the article consider the challenges to further developing smart responsive packaging systems and suggests possible solutions. Responding to actual production needs, new approaches, such as material safety assessment and improved response sensitivity, can be considered in combination with artificial intelligence techniques to better design applicable smart packaging systems. These developments are important for reducing food waste, improving food shelf life, and ensuring consumer safety.
食品保鲜智能响应包装的研究进展及未来趋势
据估计,在全球范围内,每年约有三分之一的供人类消费的食物被浪费,总量约为13亿吨。这一惊人数量的食物浪费是食品供应链中的一个严重问题。然而,智能响应包装材料的开发和使用有可能减少食物浪费和延长保质期。例如,一些新型材料,如具有光催化性能的复合薄膜,已被开发用于水果包装,可以延长草莓的保存时间。然而,现有的智能包装材料在提供高效、灵活和及时的响应方面仍然面临挑战。此外,来自当前包装系统的健康威胁也是一个问题。例如,加工技术产生的残留化学物质和活性分子的过度释放,如包装中使用的一些纳米材料,可能威胁人类健康。因此,进一步开发和优化能够及时响应储存微环境变化的智能包装材料对食品保鲜至关重要。本文综述了采用多刺激响应的智能响应包装的最新进展,总结了温度、湿度、气体、pH、光等智能响应包装的响应机制和应用进展。此外,文章考虑了进一步发展智能响应包装系统的挑战,并提出了可能的解决方案。根据实际生产需求,可以考虑将材料安全评估和提高响应灵敏度等新方法与人工智能技术相结合,以更好地设计适用的智能包装系统。这些发展对于减少食物浪费、延长食品保质期和确保消费者安全具有重要意义。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Stored Products Research provides an international medium for the publication of both reviews and original results from laboratory and field studies on the preservation and safety of stored products, notably food stocks, covering storage-related problems from the producer through the supply chain to the consumer. Stored products are characterised by having relatively low moisture content and include raw and semi-processed foods, animal feedstuffs, and a range of other durable items, including materials such as clothing or museum artefacts.
