Application of active food packaging film to increase the shelf life of pistachio

Aflatoxin is a mycotoxin produced by several fungi, including Aspergillus flavus and A.parasiticus.. The presence of aflatoxins in commercial food products such as pistachio can bring serious economic drawbacks during the harvest, production, and exportation. This study aimed to reduce aflatoxin levels in raw pistachio by active food packaging film enriched with silver nanoparticles and extend the shelf-life. All samples were stored at 25 °C for 30 days. The amount of total aflatoxin were measured every 5 days in triplicate by using a completely randomized block design and SPSS 16 software. The results showed that the percentage of film composition and time had a significant effect on aflatoxin values during storage (P < 0.05). Based on the results obtained, the use of silver nanoparticles in pistachio packaging reduced aflatoxins and increased shelf life of raw pistachio.
