“…Meanwhile, some technical problems can be considered as opportunities to develop the industrial applications of NAs in postharvest processes and the commercialization [4,27,[29][30][31][32] of methods for pathogen and metabolite identification; studying the mechanisms of pathogens and NA compounds will promote the compound's registration and improve the use of these technologies. Furthermore, in vivo practices, whether conducted under semi-controlled or real conditions, must consider the composition of the microbiota in fruits and vegetables.…”

“…Additionally, research on the relationship between physiological changes in food products and genetic control will enhance the optimization of treatments. On the other hand, it is crucial to investigate the impact of nanotechnology on preservation strategies and safety [4,27,[29][30][31][32]. In fact, micro and nanocapsules have been employed as effective components in coatings, edible films, and PPh formulations.…”

“…Various methods, utilizing either natural biopolymers or synthetic polymeric materials, have been employed based on their specific use. They improve the physicochemical properties of the capsules or fibers to guarantee their technofunctional properties and applications [9,11,31,32]. For successful technological development, the selection of efficient emerging methods is needed.…”

El alginato es un biopolímero no tóxico, biodegradable, biocompatible, soluble en agua y renovable, extraído habitualmente de algas pardas o producido mediante cultivo microbiano. Este biomaterial está aprobado por la Food and Drug Administration (FDA) de Estados Unidos para su uso en humanos en ciertas aplicaciones biomédicas. Además, existe una amplia gama de tipos de alginato diseñados con propiedades diversas según la aplicación específica. En el presente trabajo de revisión se pretende mostrar las inmensas aplicaciones que ofrece este biopolímero y que siguen en crecimiento exponencial debido a sus excelentes propiedades químicas, físicas y biológicas. De este modo, se presentan aplicaciones actuales en áreas importantes como la industria farmacéutica, la industria química y textil, la industria gastronómica y de la congelación, la inmovilización biotecnológica de células y enzimas, la liberación controlada de biomoléculas, la industria biomédica y finalmente el análisis de su creciente uso en la bioimpresión 3D.

The use of natural antimicrobial agents is an attractive ecological alternative to the synthetic fungicides applied to control pathogens during postharvest. In order to improve industrial production systems, postharvest research has evolved toward integration with science and technology aspects. Thus, the present review aims to draw attention to the achieved advances and challenges must be overcome, to promote application of essential oils and polyphenols as antimicrobial agents, against phytopathogens and foodborne microorganisms during postharvest. Besides that, it attempts to highlight the use of coating and encapsulation techniques as emerging methods that improve their effectiveness. The integral knowledge about the vegetable systems, molecular mechanisms of pathogens and mechanisms of these substances would ensure more efficient in vitro and in vivo experiences. Finally, the cost‐benefit, toxicity, and ecotoxicity evaluation will be guaranteed the successful implementation and commercialization of these technologies, as a sustainable alternative to minimize production losses of vegetable commodities.
