Scientific research in the nanomaterials field is constantly evolving, making it possible to develop new materials and above all to find new applications. Therefore, nanoparticles (NPs) are suitable for different applications: nanomedicine, drug delivery, sensors, optoelectronics and food control. This review explores the recent trend in food control of using noble metallic nanoparticles as determination tools. Two major uses of NPs in food control have been found: the determination of contaminants and bioactive compounds. Applications were found for the determination of mycotoxins, pesticides, drug residues, allergens, probable carcinogenic compounds, bacteria, amino acids, gluten and antioxidants. The new developed methods are competitive for their use in food control, demonstrated by their validation and application to real samples.
纳米材料领域的科学研究不断发展,使得开发新材料成为可能,最重要的是能够找到新的应用。因此,纳米颗粒(NPs)适用于不同的应用领域:纳米医学、药物递送、传感器、光电子学和食品检测。本综述探讨了使用贵金属纳米颗粒作为检测工具在食品检测方面的最新趋势。已发现纳米颗粒在食品检测中的两个主要用途:污染物和生物活性化合物的检测。在霉菌毒素、农药、药物残留、过敏原、可能的致癌化合物、细菌、氨基酸、麸质和抗氧化剂的检测方面都有应用。新开发的方法经验证并应用于实际样品,证明其在食品检测中的应用具有竞争力。
