The Role Of Nanotechnology In Food Safety:A Review

The ongoing production in the area of Nanotechnology changed the industrial, commercial and scientific experimental regions inclusive of agriculture business. Numerous usages of nanotech has risen because of the necessity of nanoparticles for various areas of food chemistry, for example, food-processing, food-packaging, food-development, food-safety, identification of germs found in food which is increasing time span of usability of food and additionally consumable items. This review paper describes about the role of particles in size of nanometers in the food industry so as to deliver harmless and toxin-less consumable products to the public. Nanotech contains prospective to enrich the nutritional values of food products and even introduce decent food and edibles through bio-encapsulation. Nano materials can be used to develop bio sensors and nano sieves for pathogen and contamination detection. It can likewise utilize for food packaging materials to increase antimicrobial properties and improve shelf life. This innovation additionally increases worry about toxicology parts of nanoparticles in the consumable items. Impacts of direct introduction of consumers to nanoparticles incorporated in food are likewise reviewed.
