“…Consumers’ demand for fresh, tasty, convenient food with prolonged shelf-life is the main impulsion for developing new food packaging technologies [ 8 , 9 ]. For now, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP)—intelligence or active packaging—is one of the most popular solutions [ 10 , 11 ]. The new active packaging approach uses emitters of active substances to prolong the shelf life of products by limiting microbial growth and decreasing oxidation processes.…”

Modified atmosphere packaging and active packaging were combined to prolong the shelf life and quality of the clean label, gluten-free (GF), yeast-leavened cakes enriched in oat fiber preparation. Star anise, cinnamon bark, and clove essential oils were used as emitters of active substances. The following concentrations of gases were chosen: 0% CO2/100%/N2 (MAP1), 60% CO2/40% N2 (MAP2), and approx. 78% N2/21% O2/0.04% CO2 (ATM). Microbiological and physicochemical analyses were conducted. GF cakes were stored for 14 days (analysis in 0, 7, and 14 days). The results showed a decrease in moisture content and lightness of crumb and an increase in hardness. EOs significantly (p ≤ 0.05) slowed down the growth of microorganisms regardless of the type of gas mixture. However, the best bacteriostatic effect was in MAP2. The content of beta-glucan did not change throughout the storage time. Generally, the best results were obtained with the combination of MAP and active packaging—60% of CO2 and 40% of N2—where cinnamon or clove essential oils were used.

“…450/2009 [14], active packaging is a system designed to deliberately incorporate components that would release or absorb substances into or from the packaged food or from the environment surrounding the food. Although active packaging is not a new concept, it has significantly evolved during the last decades [15]. The use of natural biopolymers (e.g., protein, starches, and cellulose) in the packaging material with biological activities (e.g., antibacterial and antioxidants) regulates the environment inside the packaging, ensuring freshness and extending the shelf life of the food [16,17].…”

The pivotal roles of smart packaging in the food industry are ensuring food quality and safety as well as providing consumers with important information about the food, allowing them to make more informed purchase/consumption decisions. The purpose of this study is to provide a holistic bibliometric analysis of smart food packaging. Bibliometric analysis collected 878 documents from the Scopus database. The annual trend revealed a three-phase growth, i.e., initial (1986–1999), development (2000–2016), and exponential (2017–2022). Since 2017, smart food packaging has attracted increasing research interest. From the keywords analysis, similar general topics of research were identified before and after the coronavirus outbreak (COVID-19). Remarkably, COVID-19 accelerated research and development toward finding sustainable and safe bio-based materials. However, most smart packaging materials are still not commercialized mainly due to the high cost of production and the absence of international standard regulations. Overall, academia is steps ahead in commercialization, where novel materials and mechanisms are tested for their efficiency and safety. The widespread of smart packaging relies on finding sustainable and safe solutions that are feasible at large scale and accepted by consumers.
