Nanotechnology is giving scientists the means to make and manipulate matter at a size scale never before possible and create novel structures with highly unique properties and wide-ranging applications. Manufacturing industries are actively exploring potential applications of nanotechnology, and many products made with nanoengineered materials are entering the marketplace. In the food industry, scientists are exploring nanotech's potential to encapsulate and deliver nutrients directly into targeted tissues, enhance the flavor and other sensory characteristics of foods, and introduce antibacterial nanostructures into foods, among other applications. The potential benefits are not just in foods themselves but also in the things that surround foods, like food packaging, food processing and sensory systems, and basic food and nutrition science research.
