Fruit and vegetable post-harvest losses are a major source of concern for any country whose economy is built on agriculture. However, this is a common occurrence in practically every developing country. Fruits and vegetables are perishable goods that must be handled with extreme caution to avoid spoilage. Horticultural crops are intrinsically more prone to deterioration because of their high moisture content, especially in tropical climates. They are biologically active, performing activities such as transpiration, respiration, ripening, and other biochemical reactions that cause quality degradation.
The main components of daily foods such as proteins, carbs, and fats can meet the requirements for making edible films. Fats are utilized to limit water transmission, polysaccharides are used to control oxygen and other gas transmission; and protein films are used to give mechanical stability. These materials can be used individually or in mixed composite to make films as long as they don't change the flavor of the food. A primary goal in making films for many foods is to ensure that the films produced have the physical and chemical qualities required to sustain the transfer of different liquids and gases at the same rates as they occur in their natural environments.
