Nanotechnology in Food Packaging

Veronica Jones

In the current market, food packages made with nanoparticles, nano-food packaging have become more affordable. However, while the use of nanomaterials is growing in food packaging applications, customer expectations and acceptance are influenced by concern about toxicity. A various commercial industry which claims to be using nanotechnology for food packaging uses it but in many experiments the technique used by them is correct but there are many nanomaterials transferred from packing to food even after this scientist were not able to conclude to the amount of nanomaterial which found its way into the food is harmful to humans and environment
