Overview of Nanotechnology in Food Sciences

Innovations in materials science at nanoscale has produced the wide range for pristine and hybrid with high chemical reactivity, surface area tunable physical properties to use as food preservatives, packaging materials, monitoring of adulterant contaminants well reuse waste foods. The present chapter presents overview advances nanotechnology its application preparation different types nano controlled composition, morphology, crystallinity structural alignment. Further, applications these nanomaterials industries, consumers service providers are discussed suitable scheme illustrations nutraceuticals, degradation wastes.
