Development of active food packaging materials incorporated with nanocellulose and investigation of their toxicity
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nanocellulose is a renewable, lightweight, and biodegradable biomaterial that has potential applications in the food packaging industry. Nanocellulose can be used as a promising...
Development of a novel antimicrobial food packaging film containing silver nanoparticles
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
In this study, silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were incorporated into bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) by a reduction (R) and UV-assisted (UV) methods with the addition of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) to prepare an environmentally ...
Photocatalytic antimicrobial coating for food contact surfaces
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
Food-borne diseases cause approximately 9.4 million illnesses each year in the United States, while globally, these diseases cause approximately 600 million cases of illness and [approximately] 420,000 deaths. Food contact ...
Valorization of purple corn pericarp using two-pot emerging thermal and non-thermal extraction technologies and evaluation of product quality, structure, and bioactivity
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2023)
The pericarp of purple corn has traditionally been thought of as being a byproduct. However, it is an excellent source of high-value polyphenols (such as anthocyanins, proanthocyanins, etc.) that could be extracted and ...
Green synthesis approach and applications of engineered nanomaterials in food safety
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Nowadays, food safety has received more awareness because of increasing foodborne illness outbreaks around the world that involved biological and chemical substances. Therefore...
