It includes aspects of nanoparticle monitoring, toxicity, and public perception, and covers applications that address both crop growing and treatment of agricultural wastewater. Topics include nanoagrochemicals (nanofertilizers,  -pesticides, -herbicides), nanobiosensors, and nanotechnologies for food processing, packaging, and storage, crop improvement and plant disease control. The group of expert authors is led by an experienced team of editors. .Food scienceAgricultureNanochemistryBiotechnologyPublic healthPollutionFood ScienceAgricultureNanochemistryBiotechnologyPublic HealthPollutionFood science.Agriculture.Nanochemistry.Biotechnology.Public health.Pollution.Food Science.Agriculture.Nanochemistry.Biotechnology.Public Health.Pollution.363.7394363.7394654541.2613614630641.3660.6664Rai Mahendraedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtRibeiro Caueedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtMattoso Luizedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtDuran Nelsonedthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edtBOOK9910298615203321Nanotechnologies in Food and Agriculture2217252UNINA
