Nanoscience is an emerging technology today with great application in different fields. Biocatalysts design,identification of different bacterial strains, monitoring the quality of food by different biosensors, food packaging withsmart systems, active, intelligent and nano-encapsulation of bioactive food compounds are examples of some ofthese applications in the food industry. In this paper, some topics related to the potential of nanotechnology in thefood industry are updated. In addition, some concerns about nanotechnology application in this popular industry arealso discussed.
