Parx Plastics y Erze se asocian para reducir patógenos en elenvasado de alimentosPublicada el 01/01/2016

Publication date: January 2016 Source: Additives for Polymers, Volume 2016, Issue 1 Rotterdam-basedbiochemistry technology start-up Parx Plastics reports that it has successfully collaborated with Erze Ambalaj,Turkey's largest producer of expanded foam packaging for food, to incorporate antimicrobial properties into thelatter's range of packaging products. This will help reduce cross-contamination from disease-producingbacteria such as Salmonella on the packaging as well as prolonging the shelf-life of packaged food, thecompanies say. Erze produces around 15 million food trays per day from its two locations in Turkey.

Efecto de la incorporación de lípidos en las propiedadesfuncionales de películas comestibles a base de gluten de trigoPublicada el 06/04/2016

Publication date: 6 April 2016 Source:Journal of Cereal Science Author(s):Jeancarlo R. Rocca-Smith, Eva Marcuzzo, Thomas Karbowiak, JessicaCenta, Marco Giacometti, Francesco Scapin, Elena Venir, AlessandroSensidoni, Frédéric Debeaufort Wheat gluten is an inexpensive proteinderived from mill industries with good film forming properties, which allowsproducing semipermeable membranes able to slow down water migrationin foods. The first objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of theincorporation of a lipid phase (25 wt%, dry basis) in wheat gluten on thefunctional properties of the film, such water sorption, surface hydrophilicity,water barrier properties, mechanical properties and thermal properties.The second one was to asses if such incorporation was able to reduce thewater sensitivity of film mechanical properties.

Barreras funcionales o adsorbentes para reducir la migración dehidrocarburos de aceite mineral desde cartón reciclado haciaalimentos secosPublicada el 04/04/2016

In a practice-oriented storage test, the boxes of recycled cardboard featuring a barrier layer on the internalsurface or an integrated adsorbent available early in 2014 were investigated for their efficiency in reducingmigration of mineral oil hydrocarbons (MOH) into dry food. Three cardboards coated or laminated with barrierlayers on the food contact side and one containing active carbon as adsorbent were characterized bymicrotome cuts and infrared spectroscopy. By testing the barrier efficiencies with four surrogate compounds,limited efficiencies were observed for the investigated layers.

Publication date: April 2016. Source: Food Hydrocolloids, Volume 55Author(s): María José Fabra, Amparo López-Rubio, Jose M. Lagaron Inthis work, the electro-hydrodynamic process was used to encapsulate anantioxidant, alpha-tocopherol, using different hydrocolloid matrices (wheyprotein isolate–WPI-, zein and soy protein isolate–SPI-) as shell materials.These hybrid structures were directly electrospun/electrosprayed as acoating layer onto one side of a thermoplastic wheat gluten film, thusgiving rise to active/bioactive bilayer packaging structures.

Arrieta, José Maria Kenny,Laura Peponi Fully biobased edible films were prepared using nativepotato starch plasticized with glycerol and further reinforced with catechin(Cat) and starch nanocrystals (SNC) obtained by acidic hydrolysis fromwaxy maize starch granules. The thermal stability of starch nanocrystalsobtained at different pH was studied, resulting on a decreasing in thermalstability at higher pH values. The X-ray diffraction patterns of theplasticized reinforced materials display complete destructuration of starchby solvent casting process.
