商品描述
This book provides a comprehensive insight into the growth of nanotechnology in the agri-food industry. Currently, nanotechnology serves as the most promising means to resolve the issues encountered in the food sector, as it enables the production of high-quality food with exceptional characteristics such as extended shelf life, flavor, freshness, and high nutritional content. This book focuses on the applications of nanotechnology in various fields such as smart packaging, processing, and preservation of food. It also emphasizes the role of nanomaterials in strategic design of nutraceuticals and functional foods. Along with providing an overview of the innovations and application, this book also describes future perspectives, and offers insights to ensure consumer confidence in terms of safe use. In this context the application of nanomaterials as nanosensors is additional covered. The book provides readers with a deep knowledge regarding nanomaterials-based biosensors (colorimetric, electrochemical, fiber-based) for detection of pathogens in contaminated food. Factors affecting risk assessment regulations and safety concerns regarding the use of nanomaterials in food industry have also been discussed in detail. Given its scope, this book appeals to a wider readership, especially for researchers and students who work in food agronomy and nanomaterials and nanotechnology related fields.
商品描述(中文翻譯)
本書提供了對農食品業中奈米技術成長的全面洞察。目前,奈米技術被視為解決食品領域所面臨問題的最有前景的手段,因為它能夠生產具有卓越特性(如延長保質期、風味、新鮮度和高營養含量)的高品質食品。本書專注於奈米技術在智能包裝、加工和食品保存等各個領域的應用。它還強調奈米材料在營養補充品和功能性食品的戰略設計中的作用。除了提供創新和應用的概述外,本書還描述了未來的展望,並提供見解以確保消費者對安全使用的信心。在這個背景下,奈米材料作為奈米感測器的應用也有進一步的探討。本書為讀者提供了有關基於奈米材料的生物感測器(比色法、電化學、纖維基)的深入知識,以檢測受污染食品中的病原體。影響風險評估法規和對奈米材料在食品行業使用的安全擔憂的因素也已詳細討論。考慮到其範疇,本書吸引了更廣泛的讀者群,特別是對於從事食品農學和奈米材料及奈米技術相關領域的研究人員和學生。
