Challenge and Opportunity: Packaging and Technology for the Functional Food

EducationStudentSummer Course Monday, 19 July 2021

The seventh day and second week of the 3rd summer course on food with the theme of Local Indigenous Functional Food’s Roles in The Era of Covid-19 Pandemic: From Farm to Table was held on July 19th, 2021. On this day, the event began with a small game to create a fun atmosphere. Then, the activity was divided into four sessions, including virtual trip and discussion, material elaboration by Assoc. Prof. Makoto Takahashi from University of the Ryukyus Japan, Assoc. Prof. Dr. Nathdanai Harnkarnsujarit from Kasetsart University Thailand and Assoc. Prof. Dr. Chaleedaa Borompihai from Chulalungkorn University Thailand. In the first session, the participants joined virtual community visits. From the virtual field trip, it could be implied that traditional medicine contains good compounds for natural remedies and Herbal supplements considering to be safe because it’s natural. Afterwards the participats had a group discussion with their group member about the pros and cons of using traditional medicine and herbal supplements.

In the second session, Professor Makoto delivered the lecture about “Effective use of Food System Biomass Present in Okinawa, Japan”. Prof. Makoto explained about : economic bio-surfactant production from sugarcane resources, studies on nanometer-size capsules containing food materials, and anti-stress effect of brown sugar produced from sugarcane. Sugar in all tropical and subtropical areas in the world is obtained mainly from sugarcane and beet. It is high in sucrose and other bioactive components such as minerals, phenolic components, and policosanol. Prof Takahashi also explained the basic theory of emulsion and interfacial activity and surfactants specifically, surface-active compounds as a product of biotransformation by microorganisms (bacteria and yeast). He then explained the production of biosurfactants from mollasses and sugar cane juices. It was then followed by a lecture on the application of nanometer-size capsules containing food materials. The lecture was concluded with information on the anti-stress effect of brown sugar produced by sugarcane.

In the third session, Dr. Nathdanai Harnkarnsujarit delivered a lecture on “Packaging Technology, Trend and Labelling for Functional Foods.” Dr. Nathdanai started the lecture with an introduction to art science in packaging technology. One of the sciences is packaging technology in food products. The first step to determine the suitable packaging was identifying the food deterioration and spoilage of the targeted food product. The next step was selecting packaging materials and equipment, evaluating prototype packages, and testing them in the market. He proceeded by giving information on smart packaging. Smart packaging was associated with active packaging. Active packaging changes the condition of the packed food to extend shelf life or improve safety or sensory properties while maintaining the quality of packaged food. Before closing his session, Assoc. Prof. Dr Nathdanai Harnkarnsujarit explained that the recent pandemic creates new opportunities in the functional food industry since there is a shift in consumer behavior towards healthier products. In addition, when designing the package, the producer should consider not only the convenience of the consumer. Lastly, packaging sustainability should also be a concern because of its effect on the environment.

The last session of the lecture was delivered by Assoc. Prof. Dr. Chaleedaa Borompihai about “Smart Technology-Challenge and Opportunity in Food Industry 4.0”. Dr. Chaleedaa opened the lecture with a brief introduction Departement of Food Technology, Chulalongkorn University. She then explained the development of the food industry from food industry 1.0 to food industry 4.0. Industry 4.0 aggregates existing ideas into a new value chain that plays a crucial role in transforming whole value chains of life cycles of goods while developing innovative products in manufacturing that involve the connection of systems and things that create self-organizing and dynamic control organization. In addition, it focuses on food servicing by using cyber-physical systems to monitor, analyze, and automate business. There are challenges and opportunities in doing Industry 4.0 but we must preserve and study the challenges to overcome them. Examples of challenges are knowledge of using technology, cost of implementation and investment, employment of high skills labor, technology disruption, and deep research that supports the use of technology and funding. Then Dr. Chaleedaa Borompichaichartkul explained the importance of design thinking as a systemic approach to start understanding innovation. There are five keywords including empathize (innovation should be human-centered), define (innovation should solve a problem), ideate (innovation is born from a clash of ideas), prototype (innovation should be brought to life), and test (innovation should be refined). The day 7th of the 3rd Summer Course was ended with the participant performing an independent study on the packaging design, claim, and technology they will use for their Final Project.

 The fourth day of the 3rd summer course on food with the theme of Local Indigenous Functional Food’s Roles in The Era of Covid19 Pandemic: From Farm to Table was held on July 16th, 2021. On this day, the activity was divided into 4 sessions including virtual trip and discussion, material elaboration by Dr. Widiastuti Setyaningsih, Dr. Dwi Larasatie N F and Prof. Saskia van Ruth. In the first session, the participants joined virtual community visits and discussed edible flowers and their utilization in the participants origin area.

The second session, the lecture was delivered by Dr. Widiastuti Setyaningsih about “Extraction of Active Compounds from Edible Flowers”. Dr. Widi explained about her research, which extraction of active compounds from edible flowers, the essentials of edible flower and analytical methods to take advantage of the edible flowers. The major compound in bioactive compounds included in fruit flowers and ornamental flowers is the phenolic acid. This compound makes edible flowers have many functionality such as the antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, antimicrobial, anticancer, neuroprotective agent, antidiabetic, uricosuric agent, and anti-hemolytic. To optimize the results of phenolic components, extraction methods were developed including maceration, UAE (ultrasound-assisted extraction) and MAE (microwave-assisted extraction).

The third session, the material elaboration by Dr. Dwi Larasatie about “Functional Food Product Development”. Dr. Dwi started the lecture with learning three generic perspectives, including business development perspective, company perspective, and product development perspective. Dr. Dwi also explained about the role of customer and market evaluation, marketing plans, production and product launching. Dr. Dwi explains the material then participants practice the material that has been explained and closed by presentations from several participants.

The last session, the lecture was delivered by Prof. Saskia van Ruth from Wageningen University and Research, The Netherland, about “Food Fraud Prevention and Detection in Herbs and Spices and Supply Chain Networks”. Prof. Saskia opened the lecture discussing fraud in every aspect of life. And she focused it on food fraud including deceit and it was done on purpose and for raking more money. The first main topic is discussing factors in food frauds’ aspect are ingredients and constituents, geographical origin, production system, and processing. Spices are the most expensive products in the supermarket so it is the most fragile type of food that gets fraud. Also the longer the supply chains are the more misty, and could become easier and more tempting to do food fraud. Economic drives also play a big role as the price of the specific food is increasing the more people want to commit food fraud for their own profits.Prof. Saskia also presented her survey regarding students’ integrity quiz. The results of the survey was that dishonesty is everywhere, not just in food fraud. There are also many fraud monitoring detection methods, including chromatography, mass spectrometry, DNA based techniques, immunology, physical test, wet chemistry, etc. Prof. Saskia ended the lecture by mentioning the system and the development in preventing food fraud in the future heading for analyses of integrated decision support tools (ICT systems), big data and citizen science.
