Introduction
Today adequate and adequate food supplies have become one of the most important concerns of the authorities and community elites, in order to overcome many efforts in various areas, such as increasing production, increasing the amount of time consuming, improving Storage and storage practices, and developing methods for protecting them against destructive factors such as fungi and bacteria. The process of packing is important for keeping foods from fungi and bacteria and, finally, for long-term storage. In addition to other modern technologies that work in the food packaging industry, nanotechnology has become one of the most commonly used technologies in various fields in various fields.1
Recently, biodegradable food films have vital importance in food study, according to their reception to the condition and their use in the food packaging industry. Different sources of biopolymers can be applied as biodegradable films that consist of polysaccharides, proteins, and lipids.2 Of the various varieties of polysaccharides, starch is particularly important according to its cheap price and its frequency in nature. Different factors influence the features of starch films, for example, the source from that starch is extracted, and the rather of starch composition.3 Starchy films have benefits such as below thickness, flexibility, as well as clearness, but also, have a different weakness, consisting of weak mechanical features and its water vapor permeability. So, the application of starches only for the production of films restricts its use.4 To increase the mechanical features of starch films, since enhancing its persistence to moisture, different ways can be applied, consisting starch repair ways, for example crosslinking and starch composition with various innate polymers.5 The interesting to apply innate and renewable polymers in a different area is enhancing, that can substitute synthetic packaging films. Accordingly, starch is a famous material with a green sense. It considers bio-degradable, edible, and not rely on fossil sources and is broadly exist.
According to the enhancing need for biodegradable substance, it is exposed which these substances will be created in a more volume, so that starch will be applied in plastic films, sheets, and innate composite fibers, and eventually can substitute plastic foam.6 Starch-based films have the appropriate physical features, so these films are odorless, taste-free, colorless and impervious to oxygen. So, there is a different limitation on the application of these films, for example, tense hydrophilic features (water sensitivity) and poor mechanical features than to customary synthetic polymers.7 Starch is not an innate thermoplastic, so in the existence of the softeners at above temperature and below the shear power, it can melt and flow, therefore it can be throw in extruded thermoplastic polymers.8 The study has revealed that starch has a proper film-making impact; the starch source plays a vital role in film features according to the various ratio of amylose to amylopectin and the structural features of these macromolecules.9 The study is searching for different to starchy sources which have good physical, chemical and functional features.10 Ghanbarzadeh et al., (2011) has shown various samples for use of this packaging substance for various foods and so has elaborated the various types of antimicrobial factor which may be incorporated in their formulations. Many agents are consisted of designing the antimicrobial packaging system. Most agents are nearly associated with the chemical features of antimicrobial factors, the innate of the substance and target microorganisms which all will be examined in this research.11
Basiak et al., (2018) in a study found that the transfer properties of starch films containing 33% of plasticizer were less effective than film comprised of 50% glycerol. Water diffusivity, oxygen permeability, and water vapor permeability at two different humidity gradients, surface tension, works of surface adhesion and cohesion, and moisture sorption were tested. Glycerol content does not play a significant role on the color or mechanical properties. This work shows that glycerol can strongly affect the functional properties of starch-based coatings and films.12
Parreidt et al., (2018) reviews the most recent essential information about alginate-based edible coatings. The categorization of alginate-based coatings/film in food packaging concept is formed gradually with the explanation of the most important titles. Emphasis will be placed on active ingredients incorporated into alginate-based formulations, edible coating/film application methods, research and development studies of coated food products and mass transfer and barrier characteristics of the alginate-based coatings/films. The summarized information presented in this article will enable researchers to thoroughly understand the fundamentals of the coating process and to develop alginate-based edible films and coatings more readily.13
Materials and Methods
In this study, a systematic review and meta-analysis of all researches conducted on determining the most important application of edible and biodegradable starch-based films in food packaging according to previous studies till 2018 was used. The method of presentation of data in this work, including the determination of the problem under study, data collection, analysis and interpretation of findings based on the systematic study reporting system i.e. PRISMA was done. The above-mentioned protocol as a criterion for searching the articles was used. There was a time limit for conducting electronic searches (2010-2018). To access the information requested from the studies related to our title by using some keywords (edible starch-based films, biodegradable starch-based films, and food packaging) searched for English databases; Google, Google Scholar, PubMed, Embase, CINAHL, PsycInfo, and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews. Inclusion and exclusion criteria were: papers related to edible and biodegradable starch-based films or food packaging, papers were English, types of papers were original and all the papers were free full text. In order to maximize the search comprehensiveness, the list of sources for all articles related to the subject was handled in a handy manner to find other possible sources. The main inclusion criterion of articles into this structured review was papers published in English that examined the application of edible and biodegradable starch-based films in food packaging. If there were multiple reports from a study, the most complete one would be chosen. In cases where the full text of the article was not available, the information in the abstract was used, and if the abstract of the article did not provide enough information, that article was excluded from the study. To select studies and extract data, the titles of all articles obtained by two of the contributors to the study and repetitive cases were first removed, then the title and abstract of the remaining articles were carefully studied and articles with no criteria for entering this structured review were deleted. Finally, the full text of the probably related articles was examined; eligible articles were selected and removed from the non-relevant items. As a result, related to inclusion and exclusion criteria 13 papers were found and analyses. Data were collected based on study characteristics, measures of edible and biodegradable starch-based films, and factors associated with food packaging. The PRISMA guidelines were followed in performing this systematic review.
To avoid subversion, extraction, and evaluation of the quality of articles was done by two independent researchers. If the articles were not submitted, the reasons for refusing it were mentioned. In cases where there was a controversy between the two researchers, the review was done by a third person. In the next step, the information about the selected articles includes the name of the first author, the year and place of the study, the year of the publication, the sample size, general characteristics of the samples, edible and biodegradable starch-based films, and the reported results in the study. The form has been pre-registered. For quantitative qualitative evaluation of articles, a systematic review of the choice bias (random sequence generation and allocation concealment) implementation (blindness of participants and evaluators), diagnosis (statistical analysis blindness), sample loss out of the study after randomization, and reporting (selective outcomes report). For this purpose, the risk of bias tool of the Cochrane collaboration group was used.
We excluded studies according to inclusion criteria such as papers related to edible starch-based films, biodegradable starch-based films, and food packaging, papers were English, types of papers were original and all the papers were free full text that the information depicts on the Fig. 1.

Edible and biodegradable films
These packages in the food industry can control or prevent the occurrence of reactions occurring within the package. Biodegradable packaging according to edible films has more importance due to the innate ingredients, the application of reincarnated and the deficiency of environmental pollution of the day to day. In this regard, the ability of such films as cover of antimicrobial and antioxidant factors and other active factors to increase quality, enhance the shelf-life, monitor of pathogens and increase the organoleptic features of the materials have different use for them in the food packaging industry.27
Application of Edible Films
Including applications of edible films, delaying the moisture content of food and the environment, controlling the amount of food breathing by reducing the amount of oxygen absorbed and selective blocking of CO2 and vapor, reducing the migration of fats, maintaining the structure of food, including food additives, preventing the migration of aroma and flavoring and colored food products to the environment and between heterogeneous food components, preventing microbial corruption during long-term storage, increasing the nutritional value of the product, protecting the product against mechanical and physical damage, reducing the amount of packaging material and the complexity of packaging.28
Discussion
Food packaging is one of the important things that are done by different materials. Plastics over the last two decades, with annual growth of 5%, are the second most widely used materials for packaging food, paper, and paperboard. Oil-based plastic materials such as polyethylene, polypropylene, polyamide, despite the environmental problems, are used extensively for packaging due to its flexibility, transparency, and stability. However, despite good properties, their use and accumulation cause serious problems. Starch is a good alternative to petroleum-derived polymers due to its easy availability, food contact, low cost, and digestibility. However, the use of starch in packaging also has problems. For example, highly water-starch and its film properties are heavily dependent on moisture content and also have relatively poor mechanical properties. Its films are very fragile and resistant to oxygen permeation. In a study, the combination of PLA and starch with appropriate properties with suitable packaging properties was obtained and the results showed that different proportions of PLA-starch, (20-80 or 30-70) with epoxy soybean oil or malic a hydric, mechanical resistance, provides a very good prevention of water vapor and gases as well as good flexibility.29 Khan et al., used thermoplastic material due to their intermolecular forces and hydrogen bonding starches, called thermoplastic starches (TPS), which increases the flexibility of starch, causing the stability of starch is below its degradation temperature. TPS is a very promising product for biodegradable plastics than biodegradable plastics.30 Corn starch was applied as a polymer matrix for the increment of antimicrobial packaging applying the way of casting and applies of Pittides Nisin or Pediocin to preserve food. Halloysite nanoparticles were selected to enhance the film. The results showed that the adding of Nisin and Piodosine peptides in starch films to the creation of active packaging substances with antimicrobial activity against L. Monocytogenes and C. Perforation.31 Biodegradable starch/clay nanocomposite films were also used to pack foods. Montmorillonite nanomaterials (homogeneously distributed in various starch-based substances) were obtained by polymer melt processing methods. The structural and mechanical features of nanocomposite films were examined and the findings of the clay particle increase impact on the modulus and the starch strength revealed starch.32 Starch and starch derivatives, Polyhydroxylbutyrate (polylactic glycolide), have high properties that are compatible with antimicrobial agents for packaging. PHB, starch, and PLGA have unique properties in the fields of food, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals as well as various composites. Starchy films were mixed with chitosan and potassium sorbate compounds and active films used to inhibit E. coli growth and S Aureus, as well as the deterrence properties of the films.33 An environmentally friendly biodegradable nanocomposite was made using potato starch and pineapple leaves. Due to the fiber structure and the dispersion of nanofibers on the starch field, the properties of nanocomposites increase after reinforcement to 3% by weight of cellulosic nanofibers, but in loading more filler, these properties are likely to decrease due to the density of nanofiber. The permeability of water vapor, water absorption and absorption of moisture nanocomposites were investigated and it was found that the inhibitory properties increased significantly. The good dispersion and good adhesion of nanofibers to starch is the same structure of polysaccharides in both phases.34 Jang et al., (2017) prepared silver and starch nanoparticles for one-stage coating using ultrasound and a mixture of starch, silver nitrate and distilled water, which used starch as an environmentally friendly and inexpensive agent. Ultraviolet-neomorphic and transient electron microscopy showed that the single-phase process was effective for the synthesis of starch-coated coatings with silver nanoparticles.35 Jang et al., (2018) used synthetic zirconium and silver nanoparticles and starch (chitosan: starch-silver nanoparticle) for antimicrobial coating applications. Besides, the effects of different ratios of chitosan and silver nanoparticles and starches were studied on different study features such as mechanical features, water and oil opposition, and antimicrobial function. The findings revealed which the study covering features rely severely on the compound of these three substances, and then covering with a ratio of 1 to 9 shown good mechanical features and excellent resistance features to water and oil.36
Conclusion
Contaminants from petroleum-based polymer materials have focused on the production of biodegradable polymers. The global trend of research and industry development is towards the use of biomass and renewable and environmentally friendly materials. Starch is one of the most abundant and cheapest substitutes for petroleum products and is now considered by researchers. Extending the use of starch structure techniques and the use of this material in combination with other materials to reduce the inherent weaknesses of this natural polymer has led to its further development in various industries, specially packaged industries. It is expected that in Iran, taking advantage of global experience, the production and use of starch will be developed as an important raw material in various industrial sectors. Due to novel research on the application of bio-degradable biofilms in the packaging industry of food, starch is one of the most promising and promising sources. Different needs in the food packaging industry for bio-films have led to the diverse sources of starch being studied because each source has its specific characteristics. While various starch components themselves are effective on the characteristics of the film, they produce different behavioral characteristics. To adapt the starch to create an interesting film, it can be revised by applying different substances. It creates films with interesting features, is free from improper chemicals during the film. Another new approach to improving the mechanical features and starch permeability is the application of different polymers with starch in film process that has the main impact on the improvement of the features of starch-based films; it may also have other features, such as antimicrobial features. The many novel studies on starch composite films are the use of bio-nano-composites that can have a good impact on the features of these films.
