Antimicrobial food packaging aims at reducing, inhibiting or retarding the growth of spoilage or pathogenic microorganisms that may be present in the packaged food or packaging material itself.

The agents used in the packaging can range from ethanol and other alcohols, organic salts, fungicides, enzymes, extracts, and much more. To be effective, they must be present at the food surface above their minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC).

Antimicrobial agents that can be used include:

  • Ethanol and other alcohols
  • Organic salts and their salts (e.g. benzoates, propionates and sorbates)
  • 杀菌剂(例如咪达拉利和苯甲基)
  • 酶(例如氧清除血糖氧化酶,乳酰氧化酶,溶菌酶)
  • Extracts from spices and herbs [e.g. Allyl Isothiocyanate (AIT)]
  • 精油(例如肉桂醛,丁香酚,儿茶素)
  • Nisin and imazalil
  • SO2,CLO2,银离子(AG +)
