Nanotechnology applications in foods-packagings and importance for seafoods

Nanotechnology 100 nanometer scale in a small and rapidly developing science and technology field. Each area of nanotechnology to create advanced products with new techniques, medicine, health, food, packaging materials and systems, pharmaceutical, electronic industries, such as benefits. Utilization of nanotechnology in the food sector to a limited extent useful and impor tant, although still used. In recent years, studies worldwide food industry is seeking ways to exploit this technology the most. On the other hand more recently because of the increase in consumption of food, fresh food is prepared and to be resistant for a long time became a prio rity and has focused on these issues. Especially in terms of food quality and shelf life of pro cessed meat and fishery products and packing of fresh fruits and vegetables are underway. Na notechnology in the food industry creates new food and intelligent packaging systems. Especi ally recently developed edible films, antimicrobial packaging, biodegradable materials, such as technological systems nanosens rler food safety and shelf life can be controlled. Nanofood technology is gaining increasing importance in the world although precise information be ob tained about the effects on public health and the environment. In this article, nanotechnology, and aquatic products industry has been compiled to date information about the fields and met hods.
