material and active ingredient carriers Separate the compartments of heterogeneous ingredients within food Incorporate food additives , such as anti-browning agents, antimicrobial, flavors , colorants Enhanced sensory properties of a food
Any type of material used for enrobing various food to extend shelf life
moisture losses
3. Provide surface sterility and prevent loss of other
important components
4. Its thickness is generally less than 0.3mm
Regulatory Status
Ingredients acceptable for use in edible films and
coatings should be GRAS Food and Drug Administration(FDA) Current Good Manufacturing Practice(cGMP) Nutraceutical incorporation , specific regulation regarding its use must be applied Coating containing a known allergen must also be clearly labeled
transmission rate and induce water loss when incorporated into film and coating
Surfactant:
Surfactants may be used to
mechanical properties of films and coatings Physicochemical and barrier properties of polymeric networks are affected by plasticizer concentration and molecular weight, water content of the film and strength and type of polymer-polymer, polymer-plasticizer interaction
stabilize the dispersed phase in a polymeric solution prior to applying it to food surface Emulsifiers are selected for use based on their HLB and PIT
used to transform food from the atom Nanotechnology will be an important tool in food designing by shaping molecules and atoms Food and agriculture industries invests billions of dollars into nanotechnology research with an unknown number of unlabeled nano food products already on the market The Helmut Kaiser Cosultancy Group suggests that there are over 300 nano food products available in the market worldwide
Increase the nutritional status in a given processed food Also enabled junk foods like ice cream and chocolate to be modified to reduce the amount of fats and sugar that the body can absorb
nutrients on demand Also sense when an individual is allergic to a foods ingredients and block the offending ingredient Smart packaging could release a dose of additional nutrients
in smart packaging will be capable of detecting food spoilage and releasing nano anti-microbes Nano-sensors embedded into food products as tiny chips
