A Critical Review On Nano-Food Packaging and Its Applications

摘要

The present manuscript addresses the effect of nanotechnology in various food sectors. Increased food functionality, enhanced flavor, reduced delivery of food additives are some of the appealing choices raising plausibility of high health advantages hypothesized in future. At the face of explosion of information, it is important to monitor them in a brief and updated manner. In this manner, new nanomaterials like carbon nanotubes, nano-biopolymers have diverse applications in food packaging, good food release property with enhanced food safety features. Furthermore, nano-encapsulation of probiotics, nano applications in food processing sector and other related issues, new functional nanomaterials for use in food along with their properties have been talked about in this review paper.
