Abstract

The advent of nanotechnology has boosted various sectors of human endeavors including food processing and packaging, the medical sector, and environment amongst others. It has improved the food industry significantly through enhanced food packaging, nutrient bioavailability and food preservation [1,2]. Nanomaterials generally are considered as those particles having particle dimensions lower than 100 nanometers at which their novel physicochemical properties make them significantly different from their bulk counterparts making them useful for various applications. Various investigations have been carried out and many more are in progress focusing on the potential usage of nanotechnology in the area of food packaging.
