Abstract

Plant protein (PP) based edible coating as a sustainable approach has attracted the global industry in the evolving landscape of active food packaging for shelf life (SL) and nutritional enhancement of foods. This critical review intends to offer a comprehensive overview of PPs as edible coatings for preserving the quality of perishable and highly nutritive foods. It explores the unique advantages of using various sources of PPs and their ability to act as mechanical, water vapor, gas, and microbial barriers. When combined with other additives (i.e., polysaccharides, lipids, antioxidants, antimicrobials, etc) these PPs also demonstrate superior hydrophobicity, higher barrier, and mechanical properties. This critical review also covers the combination of nanotechnology, non-thermal technologies, probiotics, and other advancements with PP-based edible coatings to preserve and ensure the safety and quality of foods throughout the storage period. Furthermore, the economic and safety perspectives of PP-based edible coatings are discussed to address the regulatory, consumer, and industrial concerns, so that better exploration of the above technologies can aid in combatting the food safety and security issues.

期刊介绍： Food packaging is crucial for preserving food integrity throughout the distribution chain. It safeguards against contamination by physical, chemical, and biological agents, ensuring the safety and quality of processed foods. The evolution of novel food packaging, including modified atmosphere and active packaging, has extended shelf life, enhancing convenience for consumers. Shelf life, the duration a perishable item remains suitable for sale, use, or consumption, is intricately linked with food packaging, emphasizing its role in maintaining product quality and safety.
