Edible coatings and films represent an alternative packaging system characterized by being more environment- and customer-friendly than conventional systems of food protection. Research on edible coatings requires multidisciplinary efforts by food engineers, biopolymer specialists and biotechnologists. Entrapment of probiotic cells in edible films or coatings is a favorable approach that may overcome the limitations linked with the use of bioactive compounds in or on food products. The recognition of several health advantages associated with probiotics ingestion is worldwide accepted and well documented. Nevertheless, due to the low stability of probiotics in the food processing steps, in the food matrices and in the gastrointestinal tract, this kind of encapsulation is of high relevance. The development of new and functional edible packaging may lead to new functional foods. This review will focus on edible coatings and films containing probiotic cells (obtaining techniques, materials, characteristics, and applications) and the innovative entrapment techniques use to obtained such packaging.

Edible Packaging

Active edible packaging is a food packaging made of comestible bioproducts and active compounds that interacts with the food. The bioproducts, usually biopolymers, must be recognized as safe and with characteristics to be consumed by humans—comestible—and not toxic and capable of carrying an active compound, like anti-browning agents, colorants, flavors, nutrients, antimicrobial and/or antioxidant compounds, in order to extend the product shelf-life, reduce contamination and maintain or even enhance the nutritional value.

SummaryThe mechanism of dissolution of a preformed plasma clot was explored.Our experiments showed clearly that the purified fibrin clot, made by extensive washing of a plasma clot, was resistant to lysis and that the fibrinolytic potential of the active fibrinolytic compounds was related to the presence of other plasma proteins in addition to fibrinogen.The activation of the fibrinolytic precursors was reversible inasmuch as removal of the fibrinolytic compounds negated the fibrinolytic activity of the protein-fibrinolytic compound mixture.Antifibrinolytic compounds which had been shown to interfer with fibrinolysis by streptokinase-activated plasminogen inhibited dissolution of the preformed plasma clot by fibrinolytically active compounds.The fibrinolytic potential of fibrinolytic compounds was additive; however, no apparent synergism was observed.The implication of these results to the mechanism of synthetic fibrinolysis was discussed.
