Application of Postbiotics Produced By Lactic Acid Bacteria in the Development of Active Food Packaging

The use of postbiotics in the food industry is a common way to prevent food spoilage. Postbiotics are metabolites produced by probiotic bacteria that have many health effects. Non-toxicity and safety of postbiotics and their ability to inhibit microorganisms that cause food spoilage are the most important features of postbiotics in the use of these compounds in the food industry. In studies on postbiotics in the food industry, the use of these compounds as a way to control microbial spoilage of substances may interfere with the function (factors in the food matrix) in the function of postbiotics. Therefore, the use of postbiotics in the form of food packaging can be more effective. Therefore, due to their unique properties, postbiotics have received much attention in the food industry and can be used as a new approach in food packaging.
