The burdens of microbial food safety and environmental contamination make it necessary to search sustainable, safe, antibacterial and antioxidant active food packaging materials. This contribution proposed the use of copper-ferulic acid networks (CuFA NWs) as antibacterial substances. By immobilizin...
