 ABSTRACT

Use of Nanotechnology in food industry is growing rapidly. Key factors responsible for the use of nanotechnology are the favorable results in the area of nutrient delivery system, bioactive nanoencapsulation, and detection of biosensors and in quantification of pathogenic organic compounds, in food composition alteration, other chemicals and even edible film to preserve vegetables or fruits. This review paper emphasize the applications and the advantages of nanotechnology in diverse areas of food Industry that cover bioactive nanoencapsulation, packages, edible thin film and nanosensors. It is visible from the review that the nanotechnology improve and enhance the safety and quality of food with the time of pathogen finding.

Key words: Encapsulation, Food industry, Nano biosensors, Nanotechnology, Packaging.
