      abstract     = {The purpose of active packaging is to extend the shelf life
                      of food by actively affecting the packaged product or the
                      ambient conditions inside the packaging'. For this reason,
                      it should be noted that the packaging market is developing
                      towards biodegradable active packaging that is safe for the
                      environment and simultaneously prevents unfavourable changes
                      in the biochemical composition of products Currently, as a
                      result of employing moder research methods, novel active
                      packaging materials are being obtained. It should be
                      stressed that some of them comprise biodegradable polymers.
                      Polylactide, chitosan, and a whole range of cellulose
                      derivatives, such as carboxymethyl cellulose and cellulose
                      acetate propionate (CAP), count among the most promising
                      biodegradable polymers used as packaging materials. In the
                      present project, cellulose acetate propionate was chosen to
                      be used as a biodegradable polymer because it is a
                      relatively low-cost polymer derived from renewable
                      resources. It is well known that microbial incursion occurs
                      even when the food is packaged'. This can be attributed to
                      moisture permeability in the packaging materials and other
                      environmental conditions. Therefore, active agents, like
                      antimicrobial components and antioxidants, must be
                      incorporated into the packaging system. These active agents
                      function by enhancing the stability of the product to a
                      greater extent. Active packaging systems intentionally
                      absorb or release substances into food or the environment
                      the food remains in contact with. Compounds required to
                      achieve such an effect may be incorporated into the
                      packaging material. For this reason, compounds characterized
                      by antioxidative properties, such as quercetin, can be
                      introduced into a polymeric matrix. Most active compounds,
                      however, cannot easily be dissolved. Performed analyses
                      allowed us to establish that non-ionic surfactants, such as
                      Tween 80, can significantly influence the dissolution and
                      dispersion of active compounds in a polymeric matrix'. It
                      should be noted that Tween 80 has been approved for contact
                      with food by the Food and Drug Administration. As a result,
                      introducing non-ionic surfactant, namely Tween 80, as a
                      solubilizer and a plasticizer, along with quercetin as an
                      active compound, into CAP-based packaging was successfully
                      accomplished, resulting in unique properties of the obtained
                      material. Performed analyses allowed to establish that new
                      materials are characterized by significant antioxidative
                      properties that can improve the shelf life of storage food
                      as well as can be used as indicators of biogenic amines and
                      other nitrogen compounds released during meat spoilage.},
