Summary: Biodegradable blend films were tested for red chili storage under modified atmosphere packaging. Although the films did not achieve the recommended gas concentrations, they maintained desirable chili quality parameters due to high water vapor permeability. The packaging system used similar gas permeability to polypropylene film but significantly higher water vapor permeability.

Summary: This review provides a comprehensive overview of marine-sourced biopolymers used in food packaging and their gas permeability. Selection of packaging materials should consider the specific requirements of different types of fresh foods. Non-thermal modification, blending, layer-by-layer assembly, cross-linking, and nanomaterial reinforcement can improve the limitations of marine biopolymer films. Future research should focus on combining active and smart packaging technologies with marine biopolymer films and exploring efficient recycling methods.

Summary: Polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) is a material with excellent gas-barrier properties and is widely used as a biodegradable, high-barrier coating on food packaging films. However, its sensitivity to water limits its applications with fresh foods and in high-humidity conditions. This study extensively characterizes the water vapor and oxygen permeability of high-barrier biodegradable films with PVOH/PLA + wax double coatings. A mathematical model is applied to predict the permeability of the multilayer films under varying humidity conditions. The results show that the PLA + wax coating effectively hampers the permeation of water molecules, reduces PVOH swelling, and provides UV-shielding abilities. Additionally, the double-coated films are suitable for preserving foods under modified atmospheres.

Summary: Packaging films for modified atmosphere packaging are often multi-layered structures with high barrier properties, but are difficult to recycle. Lower barrier properties could reduce material usage or allow for alternative materials. A mathematical model was developed to determine minimum permeability requirements for maintaining shelf life, showing potential for alternative films or reduced barrier thickness.

Summary: This study investigates the internal gas gradients in pear fruit during controlled atmosphere storage and their relation to internal browning. The study utilizes effective diffusivity maps reflecting the heterogeneous structure to predict the internal gas gradients. The results show that the distribution of internal gas concentrations and respiratory quotient (RQ) is affected by the heterogeneity of the diffusivity, and the occurrence of internal browning is related to the critical oxygen (O2) and RQ levels.

Summary: Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) provides excellent protection for food products, but its recyclability is limited. This study evaluated the recycling potential of MAPs based on composition, compatibility, and temperature. It found that lids and trays alone have limited recyclability, while barrier structures have better compatibility. However, the delamination of MAPs is required for recycling, highlighting the need for more compatible polymer components.

Summary: Excessive combustion of fossil fuels has led to the search for renewable sources of energy. Microalgae, which can produce biodiesel by synthesizing oil from sunlight and carbon dioxide, have potential as a source of renewable energy. However, their oil productivity is still low, requiring genetic engineering to improve synthesis and excretion. Recent advances in molecular tools have opened possibilities for tailored cell factories, but a holistic approach to metabolic engineering is necessary.

Summary: The physicochemical, biochemical, and microbiological characterization of Cobrancosa table olives was conducted in this study to support the potential granting of a PDO status. The study found that there were two shared stages in the production process: sweetening and salting. Yeasts dominated during the sweetening stage, while the viable counts of Lactic Acid Bacteria (LAB) were similar at the end of salting. Lpb. pentosus, Lpb. paraplantarum, Pediococcus parvulus, and Oenococcus kitaharae were the most abundant LAB strains identified.

Summary: This study investigated the effects of nanoencapsulation and gel incorporation on the antioxidant activity, stability, and release profile of curcumin. The results showed that CUR-loaded nanoparticles and CUR NPs-filled gelatin-genipin gels had significantly higher antioxidant activity, stability, and in vitro release profile compared to free CUR. The GL/GP-CUR NPs exhibited the highest antioxidant activity and increased stability, while the CUR NPs had a faster release rate. These findings suggest that GL/GP-CUR NPs have potential as an effective delivery system for CUR in the food industry.

Summary: This study developed solid microcapsules containing co-loaded vitamin B12 and D3 using a W1/O/W2 emulsions and spray-drying method. The addition of polysaccharides as co-encapsulants improved the morphological characteristics, encapsulation efficiency, storage stability, and gastrointestinal simulation of the microcapsules. The electrostatic bonding with chitosan and multilayer protection from the W1/O/W2 structure contributed to the high encapsulation efficiency of vitB12. Incorporating polysaccharides into W2 enhanced the particle integrity of the dried powders and improved the retention rate and encapsulation efficiency of vitamins. Sodium carboxymethylcellulose showed the best protection for vitB12 and lower degradation rates for vitD3, while sodium alginate exhibited controlled release and the highest cumulative release under simulated gastric and intestinal conditions, respectively.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of swelling on espresso extraction by incorporating a particle-level swelling model into a one-dimensional bed-level extraction model. The results show that swelling only slightly affects the yield and strength at a fixed flow rate, but considerably enhances the strength at a fixed pressure drop. The finer the coffee particles, the more pronounced the enhancement. It is suggested that better control of yield and strength can be achieved by fixing the flow rate in an espresso machine. It is also indicated that numerical extraction simulations, when properly incorporated with relevant physical effects, can be used to predict the extraction kinetics and guide the design and production of espresso machines.

Summary: Methyltetrahydrophthalic anhydride (MeTHPA) esterified corn starches (MeCS) with degrees of substitution (DS) ranging from 0.0066 to 0.072 were prepared and found to be effective in stabilizing Pickering emulsion. The modification of MeTHPA damaged the crystal structure of corn starch, roughened its surface structure, and increased its contact angle, which were positively correlated with the DS of MeCS. The particle size of MeCS increased and then decreased with increasing DS, with the smallest size observed for MeCS with a DS of 0.072. The Pickering emulsions stabilized by MeCS with a DS of 0.072 exhibited better stability compared to those stabilized by MeCS with lower DS, which can be attributed to their smaller particle size and higher viscosity. MeCS with a DS of 0.072, at a concentration of 3% (w/v), could maintain emulsion stability even after 50 days of storage. These findings suggest that MeCS with appropriate DS and concentration levels could be effective particle stabilizers for Pickering emulsions.
