“…Traditional food packaging materials have passive action in relation to food, since they merely serve to isolate foods from the environment, and do not ensure the required food quality to permit an adequate foods commercialization [7]. However, active packaging complement the traditional packaging with new features that make it possible to optimize the conditions inside the packaging of a food product, thus extending its durability.…”

Nano-biocomposite films based on plasticized cellulose acetate/triethyl citrate (CA/TEC) were prepared with silver nanoparticles (AgNPs)/gelatin-modified montmorillonite nanofiller (AgM) and thymol (Th). AgNPs were biosynthesized in situ the clay using Curcuma longa (C. longa) tuber extract. Full characterization of clay and the formulated films was conducted including morphological, physical and functional properties. From the results, the AgNPs showed spherical shape, face centred cubic crystalline structure, and small average size with narrow distribution.Intercalated structure of films was achieved with some exfoliated platelets and clay aggregates. The glass transition temperature (Tg) of CA increased slightly by the added clay but decreased by Th due to its plasticizing effect. Also, the thermal stability of CA was enhanced only by the added clay.Increasing contents of both additives into films declined the optical clarity but enhanced greatly the UV barrier ability. The clay improved the tensile and oxygen barrier properties, while the Th initiated an antagonist effect. Besides, the radical 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) tests highlighted antioxidant activities of Th-included films. The films showed antimicrobial activities against bacteria and fungi, where Escherichia Coli (E. Coli) was the most sensitive, with an efficient growth inhibition in vapour-phase method. These materials with antimicrobial/antioxidant properties are promising active packaging. ACCEPTED MANUSCRIPTSilver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are arch inorganic products from the nanotechnology field that have gained boundless interests in packaging applications thanks to their unique properties, such as large surface areas, high thermal stability, and antimicrobial activity. In this context, the incorporation of AgNPs into films packaging as an efficient antimicrobial agent to prevent microbial proliferation on food contact surfaces has emerged [9]. However, there is a need to develop a variety of high-yield and low cost green routes for the synthesis of silver nanoparticles.In this way, the biogenic synthesis of AgNPs mediated by plants has gained widespread interest as safer alternative to common methods, namely chemical, microbial, and physical (UV irradiation, microwave processing, thermal decomposition, electrolysis, ect) processes. This eco-friendly process is beneficial due to its cost effectiveness, non-pathogenic and easily scaled up for large-scale synthesis. Also, there is no need to use high temperature, pressure, energy and toxic chemicals for production. In this context, numerous reports have been published [10-12] concerning the biosynthesis of AgNPs using extracts of different plant parts such as root, stem, bark, leaf, fruit, flowers, and latex as natural resources. Phytocompounds in the plant extracts serve generally as reducing and capping agents in the reaction with silver nitrate (AgNO 3 ), a commonly used precursor in silver nanoparticles synthesis. This dual action is originated from the combined effects of biomolec...

“…These systems involved the chemical, physical, and biological activities which change conditions of the packed food and help in extending the product's sustainability and shelf life. Moreover, active packaging is also able to enhance the microbiological safety and the sensory properties while maintaining the quality of the intended product [18]. Commonly, active packaging systems are concerned with substances that absorb (scavengers) or release (emitters) gases or steam which actively modifies the atmosphere inside packaging.…”

“…Commonly, active packaging systems are concerned with substances that absorb (scavengers) or release (emitters) gases or steam which actively modifies the atmosphere inside packaging. Scavengers are used to remove unwanted items that commonly involved with the absorption of oxygen, ethylene, moisture, carbon dioxide, and flavors/odors from the environment into the internal packaging, while emitters are designed to release desired items that have a positive impact on food into the packaging environment that are commonly associated with the emitter of carbon dioxide, antimicrobial agents, antioxidants, and flavors [18]. Among those, antimicrobial packaging has been considered as the most promising method which incorporated antimicrobial agents into food packaging system that help in controlling the undesirable growth of a microorganism while extending the product's safety and shelf life [19].…”

This review discusses the protein-based active film as antimicrobial food packaging derived from various sources such as gelatin, casein, whey and zein-based protein. The films properties that exhibit antimicrobial activity are being reviewed along with their application in food packaging industry. This paper also studies the inhibition activity by antimicrobial agents from organic and metallic sources which were incorporated into the protein-based film. Nowadays, protein-based film has emerged as one of the most extensively studied in food packaging sector as it exhibits good mechanical, optical, and oxygen barrier properties. In addition, protein-based film also showed good compatibility to polar surfaces while having effective control on the release of additives and bioactive compounds in food packaging system. This paper also detailed out information on antimicrobial food packaging in order to increase consumer awareness regarding food safety and healthy lifestyle while maintaining the quality and prolonged the shelf life of food product.

“…Active and smart packaging technology has been developed as consumers have become more concerned about well-being and convenience (Wyrwa & Barska, 2017). Among such technology, packaging materials containing natural antimicrobial and antioxidant additives have received attention in terms of food safety and quality (Atarés & Chiralt, 2016;Chandrasekar, Coupland, & Anantheswaran, 2016;Suppakul, Miltz, Sonneveld, & Bigger, 2003).…”
