“…When the value of L*, a*, and b* is negative, the color tends to be black, green, and blue, respectively. 55,56 After storage for 14 days, banana in the absence of Pt/CeO 2 -P exhibited a lower L* value, higher a* value, and lower b* value than those in the bags containing Pt/CeO 2 -P. The higher L* value, low a* value with Pt/CeO 2 -P treatment than those in control samples were due to the black and brown color created over the ripening process of bananas. Moreover, as shown in Figure 7e, the b* value of bananas with Pt/CeO 2 -P is higher than that for the control, which is attributed to the ripening process of bananas resulting in the color change from green to yellow.…”

Catalytic oxidation of ethylene associated with the preservation of fruits and vegetables (F&V) at low temperatures remains challenging. To address this issue, CeO2-octahedron-supported Pt catalysts were synthesized and modified by capacitively coupled plasma for efficient catalytic oxidation of C2H4. After the plasma treatment, CeO2 with rich oxygen vacancies was created, which acted as a support to facilitate the regulation of the size and dispersion of Pt nanoparticles. Compared with Pt/pristine CeO2, the Pt/plasma-modified CeO2 catalyst (Pt/CeO2-P) showed significantly higher reactivity. More than 99.9% of ethylene conversion induced by Pt/CeO2-P could be sustained longer than 50 h at 25 °C, and 30 min even at 0 °C. Thus, Pt/CeO2 interface engineering by plasma modification technology is particularly promising for low-temperature catalytic oxidation of ethylene. Moreover, a comprehensive characterization was conducted to elucidate the reaction pathway and oxidation mechanism. From the preservation test using bananas as fruit samples, it was found that Pt/CeO2-P delayed postharvest deterioration and ripening of bananas due to the excellent ethylene scavenging effect created by the catalyst, thus demonstrating the great potential applications in F&V preservation.

“…Oregano (EO) was complexed with β-CD and encapsulated in PLA/PCL electrospun nanofibers [ 189 ]. The authors demonstrated that the postharvest quality of blackberry fruit during storage under 25 °C and 55% RH was preserved for 4 days due to the effective barrier of the nanofibers toward moisture [ 189 ]. EO/β-CD/PLA/PCL nanofibers delayed the release of EO, contributing to long-term storage even at different temperatures.…”

This review describes the state of the art in the field of poly (lactic acid) (PLA)-based materials activated by natural compounds and extracts (active ingredients, AIs) from plant sources for food and biomedical applications. With a multidisciplinary approach, after a description of the synthesis and properties of PLA, special attention was paid to the chemical properties and unconventional extraction technologies of AIs used for PLA activation. Innovative techniques for the incorporation of AIs into PLA; characterization and the antioxidant and antimicrobial properties of the novel materials were discussed. In view of future perspectives, this study has evidenced that some aspects need to be further investigated from joint research between academia and industry, according to the green chemistry principles and circular economy strategy.

“…However, synthetic plastics are non-renewable resources and not biodegradable, which is harmful to the environment . Polycaprolactone (PCL) formed by the ε-caprolactone monomer with ring-opening polymerization and a metal anion complex as a catalyst is now widely used in drug carriers and spinning fibers, showing good biodegradability and biocompatibility. , In addition, PCL has good compatibility with a variety of materials to prepare blends or copolymers with excellent properties. − PCL has great potential in packaging applications for protecting fresh fruits and vegetables. However, pure polymer packaging materials for the preservation of fruits and vegetables are far from enough.…”

Food-borne diseases caused by fresh fruits and vegetables seriously threaten human health. The polycaprolactone (PCL) polymer with good biodegradability has drawn growing interest in packaging and protecting of fresh fruits and vegetables. The disadvantage of pure PCL as a packaging material is the lack of the antibacterial function. Photodynamic sterilization as a safe and effective antibacterial method is now the emerging means for food safety. Therefore, the porphyrinic metal–organic framework MOF-545 as a highly effective photosensitizer was incorporated with PCL to prepare a biodegradable antibacterial composite film. The incorporation of MOF-545 nanorods significantly enhanced the hydrophilicity and mechanical strength of the film while slightly decreasing the transparency. The PCL/MOF-545 (10%) film exhibited the strongest antibacterial activity under a white LED light. This film was used for packaging fresh-cut apples and effectively killed 96% of the microorganisms, also delaying the apples’ discoloration and water loss. The PCL/MOF-545 film showed great potential for the antibacterial packaging of fruits and vegetables.
