Resumen:
Dairy products are highly prone to oxidation and microbial growth and required packaging with low oxygen permeability to assure shelf life. Light induced oxidation can cause descoloration, formation of off-flavors, nutrient loss and water evaporation. Traditional food packaging originates persisten wastes generating a negative environmental impact. Biodegradable polymers are friendly alternatives to conventional non degradable polymers.In this chapter, the recent research concerning biobased biodegradable packaging for applications to dairy products is revised and the faced challenges are evaluated in relation to the maintenance of biodegradability an safety improving packaging characteristics.
