BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Paper and paperboard packaging play an important role in safety and quality of food products. Common bacteria of paper and paperboard food packaging could grow due to specific conditions included humidity, temperature and major nutrition to contaminate the food. The purpose of this research was to investigate numbers and the types of bacteria in the food packaging pape...

Integration of sensing capabilities with an interactive signage through wireless communication is enabling the development of smart packaging wherein wireless (13.56 MHz) power transmission is used to interlock the smart packaging with a wireless (13.56 MHz) reader or a smart phone. Assembly of the necessary componentry for smart packaging on plastic or paper foils is limited by the manufacturi...

OBJECTIVE To develop and evaluate instructional and packaging materials for patient-delivered partner therapy (PDPT). METHODS 64 patients participated from an urban US sexually transmitted infection (STI) clinic. The research comprised three phases: individual interviews to elicit attitudes and beliefs regarding PDPT and to assess the understanding of key STI-related concepts and terminology;...

The push for lead-free or RoHS-compliant products is resulting in significant changes in packaging materials. Manufacturers of electronic equipment require materials that consistently withstand peak reflow temperatures of 240°C to 260°C. Reflow soldering at these extreme temperatures, especially after extended moisture exposure, introduces several challenges that must be solved to produce relia...

Packaging attributes are considered to have an influence on consumer purchase decisions for food and, as a consequence, also on its consumption. To improve the current minimal understanding of these influences for fresh produce, a survey instrument in the form of an online questionnaire has been developed and launched in the US. The first part of the questionnaire covers consumers' preferences ...

in this article, the some application of package have been discussed, which is primary role to maintain and create a calm atmosphere and cause people use the product with standard principles and rules. dangerous packaging materials where have been seen them with logo, it should be noticed that we must use such packages carfully, so renamed them resistant packaging or hazardous. the widespread o...

The establishment of a process to allow planarization of deep x-ray lithography based microfabricated metal components via diamond lapping has enabled examination of three additional microfabrication issues. The areas of improvement that are discussed include materials, microassembly and packaging, and multilevel fabrication. New materials work has centered on magnetic materials including preci...

Ultra-lightweight, membrane primary mirrors offer a promising future for space telescope technology. However, the advantages of the lightweight structure of the mirror are restricted by an extremely high susceptibility to microyield. Hence, careful packaging of the membranes is required when transporting mirrors of this type into space. Four packaging models, a cylindrical roll, an umbrella mod...

Antimicrobial packaging is an important form of active packaging that can release antimicrobial substances for enhancing the quality and safety of food during extended storage. It is in response to consumers demand for preservative-free food as well as more natural, disposable, biodegradable, and recyclable food-packaging materials. The potential of a combination of allyl isothiocyanate and pot...
