Original Title:
Nano-biosensors for food safety and quality assessment
Translated title:
Nano-biosensors for food safety and quality assessment
Summary:
The methods used to ensure food quality and safety are entering a new era. As a result, the food supply chain must be more efficiently intervened to safeguard the environment and public health and confront the challenges and current consumption trends. For example, analytical methods show various disadvantages, and microbial spoilage is currently ensured. Therefore, the science of nanotechnology is gaining more and more interest in the food and agriculture sector. New approaches enabled by nanotechnological tools, such as nanosensors for instant pathogen detection and antimicrobial food-contact packaging and surfaces, are proving their value for the food industry. However, applicability must also be ensured at the stage of development by evaluating the risks posed by using nanomaterials regarding both the environment and human health.
