Abstract
Nanotechnology applications are evident in all the major scientific fields including food processing and antimicrobial potential. Nanoscale compounds are being researched and used in the control of foodborne pathogens and increase the shelf life of food products. At the same time, the nanotechnology has showed the path toward the development of sensors for the monitoring of foodborne pathogens, biodegradable nanofilms and covering protect food products from pathogens. Further, the advancement in the field of food nanotechnology led to the development of novel food packaging applications. Contributions of nanotechnologist in controlling foodborne pathogens and for both types of nanocomposites in the packaging, viz., biodegradable (polylactides, starch, protein, etc.) and non-biodegradable polymers, are addressed in this chapter.
