Many factors are relevant in making the proper choice of food packaging material, including those related to shelf life and biodegradability. To meet these demands, new processing and preservation techniques have arisen, most notably modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) and active packaging (AP). This volume presents an overview of the current status of MAP and AP, exploring techniques, methodologies, applications, and relevant legislation. The book examines gases and machinery for MAP, safety and quality control, and applications in foods of plant and animal origin. It also reviews new trends in AP, consumer behavior, sensory analysis, and relevant legislation
