dc.description.abstractSterilized packaging material is a key component in aseptic processing and packaging of foods. Thermo-plastic polymeric UHT packaging materials such as polyethylene terephthalate, Ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH), Tetra Pak, etc. are being increasingly used as packaging films for sterilized foods owing to their flexibility, chemical inertness, transparency, low specific weight etc. Different methods including dry heat, UV irradiation, infrared light, chemicals like hydrogen peroxide and ethylene oxide, and combination of these methods are used for microbial inactivation. But these techniques are not without their limitations. Non-Thermal plasma generated in low pressure conditions is increasingly finding applications for decontamination and sterilization of packaging materials in the food industry. Low Pressure Air Plasma (LPAP) is one such technique. Not much research works have been carried out to check the effect of LPAP on the pathogens on packaging materials. Hence, this study explored the potential of using LPAP for sterilization of UHT packaging films as well as its effect on the viability of food pathogens spiked on the surface of UHT packaging films.en_US
