Nanotechnology, Food Security and Water Treatment

Part of the book series: Environmental Chemistry for a Sustainable World ((ECSW))

Abstract

Nanotechnology is revolutionizing development in almost all technological sectors, with applications in building materials, electronics, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, food processing, food quality control and medicine. In particular, nano-based sensors use nanomaterials either as sensing material directly or as associated materials to detect specific molecular interactions occurring at the nano scale. Nano biosensors are used for clinical diagnostics, environmental monitoring, food and quality control. Nano biosensors can achieve on site, in situ and online measurements.

This chapter reviews nanobiosensors and nanosensors, and their applications to food and agriculture. Nanosensors exhibit an unprecedented level of performance and the ability to ‘nano-tune’ various properties to achieve the desired levels of sensitivity and detection limit. Nanobiosensors are used for the monitoring of food additives, toxins and mycotoxins, microbial contamination, food allergens, nutritional constituents, pesticides, environmental parameters, plant diseases, and genetically modified organisms. Applications include: a nano-diagnostic briefcase kit for in situ crop investigation; a dip stick nanosensor kit ‘4-my-co-sensor’ for multi-analyte detection; a barcode assay for genetically modified organisms (GMO) using Surface Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (SERS); and a mobile barcode enzymatic assay.
