This study aimed at developing innovative and environmentally friendly packages for fresh-cut fruits and at a better understanding their effect on physicochemical, mechanical and microbiological characteristics during shelf-life. Packages were developed under the scope of EU project SusFoFlex (7th framework programme) – thought to incorporate materials in final packaging formulations complying environmental and sustainability concerns and valorisation of agri-food by-products. Polylactic acid (PLA)-based active packaging formulations differed in nanoclays used and presence/absence of a surfactant. PLA-nanocomposite packaging performance was evaluated and compared with pristine-PLA and conventional polyethylene terephthalate (PET). Polyone w...
