Antioxidant packaging films: application for sustainable food protection.
Review in Current research in food science, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Antioxidant packaging films (APFs) have emerged as a transformative result in food preservation, offering biodegradability, cost-effectiveness, and the ability to incorporate bioactive compounds. These films mitigate food spoilage by preventing oxidation and inhibiting enzymatic and non-enzymatic browning, while naturally derived antioxidants enhance their functionality with low toxicity, high nutritional value, and effective antimicrobial and antioxidant properties. Recent advances demonstrate that integrating natural antioxidants, such as polyphenols and flavonoids, significantly improves total phenolic content, free radical scavenging, and overall antioxidant activity of APFs. These films also exhibit great light and moisture barrier properties, mechanical strength, and compatibility with intelligent/active packaging systems. This review investigated novel raw materials, advanced manufacturing techniques, and innovative encapsulation methods for incorporating antioxidants into APFs, highlighting their diverse applications in extending shelf life and ensuring food safety across the food industry, while uniquely addressing critical gaps in scalable, eco-friendly food packaging through cutting-edge developments in sustainable raw materials and enhanced antioxidant delivery for improved film performance.
