ABSTRACT
Biofilm formation is a widespread natural phenomenon that poses a substantial threat to food microbiological safety, with direct implications for consumer health. To combat this challenge effectively, one promising strategy involves the development of functional anti-biofouling layers on food-contact surfaces to deter microbial adhesion. Herein, we explore the methodologies for fabricating both hydrophilic and hydrophobic anti-biofouling materials, along with a detailed examination of their inherent antiadhesive mechanisms. Furthermore, we provide concise insights into exemplary applications of anti-biofouling materials within the context of the food industry. This comprehensive analysis not only advances our understanding of biofilm prevention but also sets the stage for innovative developments in anti-biofouling materials and their future applications in food science. These advancements hold the potential to significantly enhance food microbiological safety, ensuring that consumers can confidently enjoy food products of the highest standards in terms of hygiene and quality.
