This review examines the potential of nanomaterials in revolutionizing food packaging, focusing on their role enhancing barrier properties and extending shelf life packaged foods. Traditional packaging materials often fall short effectively protecting against oxygen, moisture, UV light, resulting diminished quality shorter life. Nanomaterials, including nanoclays, metal oxide nanoparticles (e.g., ZnO, TiO₂), carbon-based graphene, carbon nanotubes), biodegradable options like cellulose...
The paper presents a comparative analysis of the environmental impacts biopolymer-based packaging versus conventional plastic in food engineering applications. It begins by highlighting critical role preservation and safety, while addressing challenges posed traditional packaging, including pollution, waste accumulation, generation microplastics. review compares plastics like PET HDPE with biopolymers such as PLA PHA, discussing advantages terms carbon footprint reduction, renewable resource...
A form of cancer that affects the rectum or colon (large intestine) is called colorectal (CRC). The main risk factors for CRC include dietary, lifestyle, and environmental variables. Currently natural polyphenols have demonstrated impressive anticarcinogenic capabilities.
This present research was carried out to study the effects of spouting periods on the, proximate composition, mineral content, ant-nutritional factor and microbiological content sprouted sesame flour. Sesame seeds were soaked in water for 6 h period 0 h, 24 48 72 96 h. The dried at 70 °C 55 min milled into flour assayed anti-nutrient using standard methods. Results showed that increasing seed significantly (P < 0.05) increased protein (28.92–44.21 g/100 g) ash (9.13–9.93 but decreased...
