| Book Description | Potential applications of nanotechnology in food industry include: encapsulation and delivery of substances in targeted sites, increasing flavor, introducing antibacterial nanoparticles into food, enhancing shelf life, sensing contamination, improved food storage, tracking, tracing, and brand protection. This book provides a basic understanding of the nanoscience and nanotechnology and their applications to different food industry sectors, covering both benefits and drawbacks using nanotechnology in food processing and discussing the development of an international regulatory framework. |
| Editorial Review | The first chapter gives a very good view about the understanding of nanomaterials especially for biologists who need a preview about the size and shape dependence and its property changes in nanoregime. The authors have classified the materials and preparation methods which throws a clear view to the reader about the availability of processing techniques that can be suited to any of the materials of choice based on the interest of the reader. |
