Functionalized Polymeric Materials with Bio-Derived Antimicrobial Peptides for “Active” Packaging

Functionalized Polymeric Materials with Bio-Derived Antimicrobial Peptides for “Active” Packaging

Food packaging is not only a simple protective barrier, but a real “active„ component, which is expected to preserve food quality, safety and shelf-life. Therefore, the materials used for packaging production should show peculiar features and properties. Specifically, antimicrobi...
