Abstract
The bio edible films or coatings could be a remarkable growth in recent decades. It’s a very important impact on the standard of food products within the coming years. This growth is to extend the knowledge of edible films or edible coating technologies and also advances within the material of science and processing technology. The film is employed to safeguard them from bacterial infections and also from spoilage of fruits and vegetables. It play a important role as an eco-friendly biodegradable coating, it can eaten with the fruit. A large amount of bio-based polymers are to be employed in the assembly of edible films and coatings. The materials that wont to make the bio edible film is China grass, coconut milk and peel. The coating on surface of vegetables have the sensation of freshness, that increases the period moreover because the product quality. This paper presents the concept and potential for the applying of bio edible film materials and management of food wastes from the fruit and vegetable in industry, which might prevented by bio edible coating. As well because the secondary metabolites present in citrus peel. It summarizes the extensive knowledge about the bio edible film like lemon rind, China grass and coconut milk to point out their protective effectiveness and suitability in cucumber.
Keywords: bio edible coatings, shelf life, food quality, antimicrobial activity
