Abstract
In the past few decades, there have been remarkable advances in our knowledge of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and synthesizing methods. AuNPs have become increasingly important in biomedical and industrial applications. As a newly implemented method, AuNPs are being used in nanopackaging industries for their therapeutic and antibacterial characteristics as well as their inert and nontoxic nature. As with other NPs, AuNPs have privileges and disadvantages when utilized in the food sector, yet a significant body of research has shown that, due to the specific nontoxic characteristics, AuNPs could be used to address other NP flaws. In this mini review, we present synthesizing methods, food industry applications, and mechanisms of action of gold nanoparticles. Regarding the investigations, gold nanoparticles can play a major role to reduce microbial load in foodstuff and therefore can be implemented in food packaging as an effective approach.
期刊介绍：
Gold Bulletin is the premier international peer reviewed journal on the latest science, technology and applications of gold. It includes papers on the latest research advances, state-of-the-art reviews, conference reports, book reviews and highlights of patents and scientific literature. Gold Bulletin does not publish manuscripts covering the snthesis of Gold nanoparticles in the presence of plant extracts or other nature-derived extracts. Gold Bulletin has been published over 40 years as a multidisciplinary journal read by chemists, physicists, engineers, metallurgists, materials scientists, biotechnologists, surface scientists, and nanotechnologists amongst others, both within industry and academia. Gold Bulletin is published in Association with the World Gold Council.
