Abstract

This study focuses on the development and evaluation of active additives with dual-feature: antimicrobial release and CO₂ scavenging capabilities—for the preservation of fresh produce. In Phase 1, β-cyclodextrin (βCD) inclusion complexes were synthesized using linalool and eugenyl acetate through co-precipitation and kneading methods. Phase 2 focuses on the effect of selected dual-feature active additive in prolonging the shelf life of cherry tomatoes as a fresh produce model.
