Why is it important?
Fresh chicken breast is a product with a very short shelf life mainly due to microbial contamination. The development of antimicrobial coatings can be a solution to this problem.
Perspectives
In the future, edible coatings can be combined with active packaging plus modified atmospheres to maximize shelf life and minimize the rate of deterioration.
