Food Packaging Testing Methods and

No longer just passive containers, food packaging now serves to extend shelf life, improve the quality of the products, and even substitute for cookware. This book covers a range of new developments in packaging materials, including "active" packaging, techniques for establishing the safety of materials, and the use of edible films.
