Nanotechnology has a potential to bring revolution in food safety and quality system. Basic idea was that modern nano-packaging materials unlike previous ones should be active and intelligent. Active packaging implies wrapping meat or meat products by special nanocomposite materials in order to prevent penetration of oxygen, carbon dioxide or water vapor into meat. Aim is therefore to convert plastic into super barrier, like glass or metal. Intelligent packaging denotes implantation of nanosensors within the very same packaging material. If Escherichia coli, Campylobacter, Salmonella spp., Listeria monocytogenes or different toxic metabolites are present or develop within the foodstuff, nanosensors attach to a hazard followed by color change which enables consumer to spot unsafe products.
