Iran-Made Antibacterial Storage Containers Prolong Life of Food
TEHRAN (ANA)- Food storage containers produced by an Iranian nanotechnology company increases the lifespan of foodstuff.
‘Sanat Sazan Ideal Plast’ company has made the product which is a food storage container composed of a polymeric masterbatch and certain nanoparticles as an antibacterial reinforcing agent.
Utilization of antibacterial polymer in the product during the fabrication process has led to superior antibacterial activity and boosting the life of foodstuff.
Nanotechnology works well for food packaging, and edible coatings made of both inorganic and organic nanoparticles are also possible.
Inorganic nanoparticles, including silver oxide Np, titanium oxide, zinc oxide, silver and are mostly employed in food packaging as a detector, to prevent foodborne illness, and to lengthen shelf life.
