Reviewer 2 Report
The topic of the article is qwuite interesting although i have few comments:
1. The topic has already been described in previously published review articles see for instance "Application of cold plasma technology in food packaging" from 2014. Thus it is not a novel approach.
2. The quality of images needs to be improved see figures 1, 2,3,4,5,6 and 7
3. There are some extra dashes in some words see lines 215, 294,352 and so on. It needs careful revision.
4. Table 2 row five in section properties of packaging materials. Here we have indirect connection with packaging modyfication. It would be better to give direct one (if antimicrobial effect of cold plasma on shelf life of mandarines was for instance caused by increased adhesion of polymer ...).It would be more consistent with previous examples.
5. Table 3 some abbreviations need to be expanded (CA,SR, Tdeg, RF, WCA, OP).
6. Section 5. There are some new studies showing the impact of plasma generated products on the quality of food where it has been incorporated (see sage extracts obtained with cold plasma improves beef quality)

Round 2
Reviewer 1 Report
Review of coatings-2036979-v2
- Please check and recheck the sequence of the references. For example, line 1609 stated about breast meat (chicken breast, I believe), referring to reference number 72 (a work by Zhuang et al 2019). But, reference 72 is about blueberries, not chicken meat. The work of Zhuang of DBD treatment related to chicken breast meat is in reference 3, not 72. Please check all of the references one by one.
Some errors were claimed as “done”, but they are actually not repaired at all!
I do not think that the authors are serious in preparing this manuscript.
