Abstract

The bioactive compounds incorporation for the production of biodegradable food packagings comes as a viable and environmentally friendly substitute in order to improve the nutritional value as well as extend the shelf life of highly perishable food products. Moreover, the use of bioactive compounds has been directly associated with the promotion of health aspects; the ingestion of bioactive compounds is related with minimizing risks of some diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, and coronary heart diseases. Therefore, the present study carried out a review of the current scenario in the film's production with natural antioxidants addition. The prebiotics and probiotics compound addition in films properties produced were also discussed in this work. Additionally, the film biodegradation properties should also be taken into account for their right disposal in the environment. Some factors that can to affect the biodegradation process are the nature of the polymer, the interactions among the blend components, its crystallinity, and the environmental conditions (light, temperature, O2 concentrations; and humidity). Therefore, the evaluation of relationships between structure and the polymers biodegradability is the extreme importance.

生物活性化合物在功能性生物降解膜生产中的应用——综述

生物活性化合物用于生产可生物降解的食品包装是一种可行和环保的替代品，可以提高高度易腐食品的营养价值并延长其保质期。此外，生物活性化合物的使用与促进健康方面直接相关;摄入生物活性化合物与降低某些疾病(如高血压、糖尿病和冠心病)的风险有关。因此，本研究对目前在薄膜生产中添加天然抗氧化剂的情况进行了综述。本文还对益生元及复合益生菌在薄膜中的添加进行了探讨。此外，还应考虑到膜的生物降解特性，以便在环境中正确处理。影响生物降解过程的因素包括聚合物的性质、共混组分之间的相互作用、结晶度和环境条件(光、温度、O2浓度;和湿度)。因此，评价聚合物的结构与生物降解性之间的关系就显得尤为重要。

期刊介绍： Polymers from Renewable Resources, launched in 2010, publishes leading peer reviewed research that is focused on the development of renewable polymers and their application in the production of industrial, consumer, and medical products. The progressive decline of fossil resources, together with the ongoing increases in oil prices, has initiated an increase in the search for alternatives based on renewable resources for the production of energy. The prevalence of petroleum and carbon based chemistry for the production of organic chemical goods has generated a variety of initiatives aimed at replacing fossil sources with renewable counterparts. In particular, major efforts are being conducted in polymer science and technology to prepare macromolecular materials based on renewable resources. Also gaining momentum is the utilisation of vegetable biomass either by the separation of its components and their development or after suitable chemical modification. This journal is a valuable addition to academic, research and industrial libraries, research institutions dealing with the use of natural resources and materials science and industrial laboratories concerned with polymer science.
