• Resumen

  • Active and intelligent packagings have achieved widespread use in the food industry. For so-called climacteric fruits their mechanism of action is based on regulating the reactions taking place during post-harvest ripening, especially reactions with ethylene release. This article describes these systems and the chemical reactions involved.
