Additionally, certain polysaccharides, particularly chitosan, exhibit inherent antimicrobial properties, which further enhance their utility in active packaging systems designed to preserve food safety and freshness (Hanafy et al., 0000; Lozano-Navarro et al., 0000). The combination of these advantageous characteristics positions polysaccharide-derived biopolymers as a sustainable alternative to conventional plastic packaging, aligning with the growing demand for environmentally friendly materials in the food industry (Rezaeifar et al., 0000; Salmas et al., 0000).
