Intelligent Packaging Systems: Sensors and Nanosensors to Monitor Food Quality and Safety

The application of nanotechnology in different areas of food packaging is an emerging field that will grow rapidly in the coming years. Advances in food safety have yielded promising results leading to the development of intelligent packaging (IP). By these containers, it is possible to monitor and...
