Natural antimicrobial ingredients incorporated in biodegradable films based on cassava starch. (2010, methodology): “A careful environmental impact studymust also be performed before commercial implementation of these packages (López-Rubio et al., 2004).”
Cassava starch biodegradable films: Influence of glycerol and clay nanoparticles content on tensile and barrier properties and glass transition temperature (2012, unknown): “A great advantage of plastics is the large variety of materials and compositions available, so the most convenient packaging design can be adapted to the very specific needs of each product (López-Rubio et al., 2004).”
Food Packaging: A Comprehensive Review and Future Trends. (2018, background): “Additionally, oxygen has a considerable effect on the respiration rate and ethylene production rate of respiring foodstuffs such as fruits and vegetables (Lopez Rubio et al., 2004).”
Effect of nanoclay-type and PLA optical purity on the characteristics of PLA-based nanocomposite films (2013, background): “Moreover, food packaging has recently been affected by significant changes in food distribution, due to the globalization of food supply and the increasing consumer demand for better, fresher, and safer quality foods (Lopez-Rubio et al., 2004).”
