Bioactive Edible Films and Coatings Based in Gums and Starch: Phenolic Enrichment and Foods Application

Edible films and coatings allow preserving fresh and processed food, maintaining quality, preventing microbial contamination and/or oxidation reactions and increasing the shelf life of food products. The structural matrix of edible films and coatings is mainly constituted by proteins, lipids or poly...
