Contaminant Sensors: Nanosensor, an efficient alarm for food pathogen detection; 14. Nanotechnology based contaminant sensors; 15. Nanocomposite Biosensors for Point of Care -- Evaluation of Food Quality and Safety; 16. Plasmonic Nanoparticles and Quantum Dots in the Identification of Inorganic and Organic Contaminants in Food Samples; 17. A Technique Comes to Life for Security of Life: The Food Contaminant Sensors; 18. New trends in food industry: application of nanosensors in food packaging; 19. Nanomaterials based biosensors for food contaminant assessment; 20. Fluorescent Nanosensors: Rapid Tool for Detection of Food Contaminants
Summary: Nanobiosensors: Nanotechnology in the Agri-Food Industry, Volume 8, provides the latest information on the increasing demand for robust, rapid, inexpensive, and safe alternative technologies that monitor, test, and detect harmful or potentially dangerous foods. Due to their high sensitivity and selectivity, nanobiosensors have attracted attention for their use in monitoring not only biological contaminants in food, but also potential chemical and physical hazards. This book offers a broad overview regarding the current progress made in the field of nanosensors, including cutting-edge technological progress and the impact of these devices on the food industry. Special attention is given to the detection of microbial contaminants and harmful metabolotes, such as toxins and hormones, which have a great impact on both humans and animal health and feed.
