Nanosensors are chemical or mechanical sensors used in food and water quality detection
to detect the presence of chemical species. Biosensor enabled packaging systems can
detect food quality and extend shelf life. Nanosensors provide faster and more accurate
detection of microbes, toxins, and adulterants. Nanoparticles may also be used to detect
biodegradable food components such as vitamins and antioxidants. The review focuses on
the emerging application of nanotechnology based sensors for shelf life analysis of food …
