Nanotechnology Horizons in Food Process Engineering: Volume 3: Trends, Nanomaterials, and Food Delivery
English | 2023 | ISBN: 1774910985 | 460 Pages | PDF (True) | 18 MB
Although nanotechnology has revolutionized fields such as medicine, genetics, biology, bioengineering, mechanics, and chemistry, its increasing application in the food industry is relatively recent in comparison. Nanotechnology in the food industry is now being explored for creating new flavors, extending food shelf life, and improving food protection and nutritional value, as well as for intelligent nutrient delivery systems, "smart" foods, contaminant detection nanodevices and nanosensors, advanced food processing, antimicrobial chemicals, encapsulation, and green nanomaterials.
