Active packaging is one of the innovative food packaging
concepts that has been introduced as a response to the
continuous changes in current consumer demands and
market trends. Major active packaging techniques are con-
cerned with substances that absorb oxygen, ethylene,
moisture, carbon dioxide, ¯avours/odours and those which
release carbon dioxide, antimicrobial agents, antioxidants
and ¯avours. The main objectives of this article are to: (1)
provide a literature review about the dierent types of
active packaging concepts with respect to mechanism of
action, eectiveness and the eects on foods, (2) provide a
state of the art about the experimental development and
commercialization of active packaging concepts, (3) provide
a scope of applications and (4) discuss the obstacles to be
overcome in order to make extensive commercial applica-
tion of active packaging in Europe feasible. # 1999 Elsevier
