However, as with any new technology, along with the benefits, there is the potential for unanticipated adverse effects. There is still a great deal to learn about any health outcomes related to introducing nanosized materials into foods and food packaging materials. Developing nanotechnology into a safe, effective tool for use in food science and technology will require addressing these and other questions. Assuring consumer confidence will be equally important to the success of this new emerging technology. The Institute of Medicine held a one-day workshop, summarized in this volume, to further explore the use of nanotechnology in food. Specifically, the workshop was organized around three primary topic areas: (1) the application of nanotechnology to food products; (2) the safety and efficacy of nanomaterials in food products; and (3) educating and informing consumers about the applications of nanotechnology to food products. 606 $aFood$xAnalysis 606 $aFood$xComposition 606 $aNanotechnology$xHealth aspects 615 0$aFood$xAnalysis. 615 0$aFood$xComposition. 615 0$aNanotechnology$xHealth aspects. 676 $a338.4/766 701 $aPray$b Leslie A$0880793 701 $aYaktine$b Ann L$01804714 712 02$aInstitute of Medicine (U.S.).$bFood Forum. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910953141703321 996 $aNanotechnology in food products$94447344 997 $aUNINA
