Nanoparticles in combination with bacteriocins can be used as antimicrobial agents in the preservation of food. The delivery of nisin can be improved by the use of the nanoparticulate system. This chapter describes polymers impregnated with nisin and the application of nisin in food preservation. It...
Metal nanoparticles like silver (Ag), zinc oxide (ZnO), titanium dioxide (TiO2), copper oxide (CuO), and nanomaterials such as carbon nanotubes and graphene oxide are widely used in food preservation. Integrating them into various polymer matrices, including biopolymers, enhances properties and ...
This study focused on ZnO NP because of its increasing presence in many marketable products and that supports its application in food industries as a reasonably safe agent. The demonstrated antibacterial activity of ZnO NP recommends its possible application in the food preservation field; otherwise ...
Silver nanoparticles are of particular interest in the modern research of nanotechnology due to its unique properties, which can be incorporated into a wide range of extensive applications such as antiseptic agents in medical industry, cosmetics, food packaging, bioengineering, electrochemistry, catalysis,...
