cereal, milk, oilseeds, collagen and gelatin based. Proteins-based edible coating has excellent gas barrier
properties and good mechanical properties. However, the hydrophilicity nature of proteins makes the
protein-based films poor water barrier properties. The application of plasticizers and treatments can
improve the protein-based films and coatings. The addition of physical and chemical active compounds
into protein-based films can increase the functional properties which can inhibit or delay the growth of
microorganisms and the oxidation of lipids thereby increase its shelf-life. The review summarized the

Consumers demand for high quality foods with enhanced keeping quality of raw and Ready-
