Abstract :Nanotechnology is a field of applied sciences and technologies involving the control of matter on theatomic and molecular scale, below 100 nanometers. Nanotechnology has the potential to impact manyaspects of food systems. Food security, packaging systems, new materials for pathogen detection areexamples of the important links of nanotechnology to the food science and engineering. In this review,it is focused on the main areas of nanotechnology use in the food industry and also new processapplications and toxicological investigations are discussed. Nanotechnolgy which offers lots of benefitsrange from improved food quality and safety to reduced agricultural inputs and improved processingand nutrition may have risks for human use and consumption and the environment. It needs more nationaland international studies that the technology is safe and regulated to ensure maximum food safety andpersonal health protectionKeywords : Nanoteknoloji, Gıda endüstrisi, nanoteknoloji ve sağlık
