Abstract
Technological advancements are directly reflecting on the consumer ’s ever increasing demand for healthy, safe and quality food products. Food industry is in search of novel preservation and packaging techniques to cope up with this demand. Active packaging is one such solution to meet this demand effectively. Important active packaging systems include oxygen (O2) scavengers, carbon dioxide (CO2) emitter/absorbers, moisture regulators, antimicrobial packaging, antioxidant packaging, ethylene absorbers and flavour releasing and absorbing systems. This article reviews different active packaging systems and their potential applications for fishery products.
