Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
In the field of sustainable agriculture and food production, the management of agri-food wastes presents both a challenge and an opportunity. With the growing awareness of environmental sustainability and the pressing need to utilize resources efficiently, there is a burgeoning interest in unlocking the potential of agri-food byproducts. Among the complicated components within these wastes, bioactive antioxidants stand out for their potential to revolutionize various industries, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and functional foods.
This Special Issue aims to delve into the realm of bioactive antioxidants derived from agri-food wastes, particularly emphasizing their applications in the food industry. We will explore important topics, such as additives and packaging aimed at prolonging shelf life, as well as other relevant areas to maximize the utilization of these antioxidants. By addressing these facets, we aim to foster collaboration among researchers, industry experts, and policymakers to drive the transition towards a more sustainable and resource-efficient future.
