The safety future of fruit preservation with biomaterials

Food quality preservation is as important as with food production. It is highly necessary for ensuring food security and sustainability on the earth. However, at the same time, food preservation methods, i.e. agrochemicals, may cause some food safety issues under misuse and/or excessive use conditions. Therefore, safety methods should be studied by the scientific world and to be commercialized by the industries for ensuring food safety and security. Herein, biomaterials are the most promising and safety alternatives to the agrochemicals. In this perspective paper, we aimed to highlight the importance of the subject and to summary the critical points (importance, advantages, disadvantages, mode of action and successful application) of the biomaterials for lighting the way for new researchers to commercialize such techniques. We believe that the biomaterials constitute an important part within the safety future of fruit preservation.
