With growing concerns about environmental protection and sustainable development, the development of new biodegradable food packaging materials has become a significant focus for the future of food packaging. Polysaccharides, such as cellulose, chitosan, and starch, are considered ideal biodegradable packaging materials due to their wide availability, good biocompatibility, and biodegradability. These materials have garnered extensive attention from researchers in food packaging, leading to considerable advancements in the application of polysaccharide-based food packaging films, coatings, aerogels, and other forms. Therefore, this review focuses on the application of polysaccharide-based packaging films in food storage and preservation and discusses their preparation methods, application progress, challenges, and future development directions. Through an in-depth analysis of the existing literature, this review aims to provide sustainable and environmentally friendly solutions for the food packaging industry.

This study presents an investigation of the chemical composition of Aloe vera leaf tissue with a focus on the spatial distribution of compounds. The composition was studied using two mass spectrometry imaging techniques: silver-109 nanoparticles assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry imaging (AgNPs-LDI-MSI) and laser ablation-remote atmospheric pressure photoionization/chemical ionization mass spectrometry imaging (LARAPPI/CI-MSI) and the identification was aided by ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography and ultra-high-resolution mass spectrometry (UHPLC-UHRMS) analysis. The results showed an abundance of phenolic compounds with antioxidant, antimicrobial, and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a beneficial food additive and food packaging material.

Tender ginger is often used a fresh vegetable but hard to storage due to the delicate skin, high moisture content and prone to spoilage. In order to develop suitable preservation technology for tender ginger, the effects of vacuum packaging combined with different preservation temperatures (20-25 °C room temperature, 4 °C and 10 °C) on tender ginger shelf life were investigated. The results indicated that vacuum packaging combined with 4 °C (VP4) preservation could easily cause cold damage and postharvest physiological fluctuations.

Metallic nanostructures play a vital role in technological advancement, providing exceptional performance and improved adaptability in comparison to their bulk equivalents. Conventional synthesis techniques frequently depend on dangerous reducing agents to transform metal ions into Nanoparticles (NPs), which presents considerable environmental and health issues. In contrast, the approach of green synthesis, which emphasizes the use of non-toxic reagents, has garnered significant interest as a sustainable method for the fabrication of Metallic Nanoparticles (MNPs).

Background: Microbial spoilage in meat impedes the development of sustainable food systems. However, our understanding of the origin of spoilage microbes is limited. Here, we describe a detailed longitudinal study that assesses the microbial dynamics in a meat processing facility using high-throughput culture-dependent and culture-independent approaches to reveal the diversity, dispersal, persistence, and biofilm formation of spoilage-associated microbes.

Background: Chile's Food Labelling Law was implemented in three phases with increasingly stricter limits. After initial implementation, sugars and sodium decreased in packaged foods, with no significant changes for saturated fats. It is unclear whether full implementation is linked with further reformulation or if producers reversed changes due to consumers' preferences.
