Altered expression of cyclin A 1 in muscle of patients with facioscapulohumeral muscle dystrophy (FSHD-1). Concerns about the environmental and health impacts of plastics have driven the search for alternatives to petroleum-based food packaging materials.Simultaneously, the food packaging industry is making rapid progress in developing smart packaging technologies that extend the shelf life and freshness of perishable foods.Among the alternatives, plant-based packaging materials are gaining prominence because of their high environmental, health, and economical properties.However, the advancement in smart packing technologies has mainly involved petroleum-based plastics.Consequently, it is imminent that these smart technologies should be geared toward emerging plant-based packing materials.

Hence, this perspective article explores the potential, opportunities, and challenges in designing smart packing materials using plant-based materials like protein, cellophane, and other Automatic location of relevant time slices and patterns in both signals and video-movies: real-time and off-line visualization bio-polymeric plastics.Specifically, we explore how the plant-based platform for smart food packing for prolonging the consumable life of perishable food products can be achieved without losing the desirable properties exhibited by petroleum-based plastic platforms.
