Laser geperforeerde folie voor controle kleine meeltor

Storage insect pests are a major threat for packaged foodstuffs and most packages have low permeability to the fumigant gases used for control. Researchers at Urmia University in Iran evaluated the effects of O₃ gas concentrations in the atmosphere of 70% CO₂ on confused flour beetle placed inside three foodstuffs including; wheat (alive), wheat flour and rolled oats (inanimate) packed with laser perforated biaxially oriented PP film.
Present study suggests laser perforated BOPP films as a proper packaging for inanimate products and non-perforated BOPP films for live products. An article about the research is published in the Journal of Stored Products Research.
