Abstract

In this review content, the enzyme based biomarkers, applications of biomarkers for novel food processing and analysis have been expressed. Nanoscale biosensors incorporating enzymes are being developed for detection of chemical contaminants, allergens and other protein moieties and for food pathogens. Enzymes are also a component in active packaging systems and have been recently incorporated into traceability and authentication tags for high value or frequently counterfeited items.
