Active Packaging
AP: Packaging that changes the condition of the packedAP: Packaging that changes the condition of the packedfood to extend the shelf-life or to improve safety orsensory properties, while maintaining the quality
All AP technologies involve some physical, chemical, orbiological action for altering the interactions betweenth k th d t d th k h dthe package, the product, and the package headspaceto achieve certain desired outcome
AP t b l ifi d i tAP systems can be classified into:
Active scavenging systems (absorbers) Active releasing systems (emitters)

O2 Scavenging Technology
High levels of O2 present in foodpackages may facilitate microbialgrowth, off flavours and off odoursdevelopment, colour changes andp , gnutritional losses
O2 absorbing systems provide an alternative to vacuum andg y pgas flushing technologies as a means of improving productquality and shelf life
Existing oxygen scavenging technologies utilise one or moreof the following concepts: iron powder, ascorbic acid,photosensitive dye and enzymatic oxidation (e g glucose

O2 Absorbers
O2 absorbers can prevent the growth of moulds, aerobicp g ,bacteria such as Pseudomonas and oxidative damage ofmuscle pigments and flavors to avoid discoloration
The majority of currently commercially available O2scavengers are based on the principle of iron oxidation
Applications in sliced cookedApplications in sliced cooked meats (e.g. ham) and prevent
discoloration in fresh beef

CO2 generators
The function of CO2 with a packaging environment is top g gsuppress microbial growth
Since the permeability of CO2 is 3–5 times higher than thatof O2 in most plastic films, it must be continuouslyproduced to maintain the desired concentration within thepackagepackage
High CO2 levels (10–80%) are desirable for foods such asmeat and poultry in order to inhibit surface microbialp ygrowth and extend shelf life

Antimicrobial packaging
Approaches to antimicrobial packaging can be dividedinto 2 types:
1. Preservatives that are released slowly from thepackaged materials to the food surface
2 P ti th t fi l fi d d d t2. Preservatives that are firmly fixed and do notmigrate into the food products
To confer antimicrobial activity antimicrobial agents mayTo confer antimicrobial activity, antimicrobial agents maybe coated, incorporated, immobilised, or surface modifiedonto package materials

SensorQ™: Senses spoilage in fresh meat
Detects food-borne bacteriologicallevels right inside the package
SensorQ™ is made of food gradematerials and is economical:costing less than 1% of the totalvalue of the average package ofvalue of the average package ofmeat or poultry that it labels
When the inside of the quality “Q” on the label istangerine orange, the product is fresh. When thebacteria count in the package builds to a critical level,the orange turns to tan to indicate spoilage
