This chapter focuses on providing a comprehensive review on the current development of nanotechnology in the field of active and intelligent packaging for food. Systems devoted to intelligent food packaging require easy-to-read, cheap, robust, and safe systems that are able to provide on time information. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers that evaluations of safety, effectiveness, public health impact, or regulatory status of nanotechnology products should consider any unique properties and behaviors that the application of nanotechnology may impart. The lack of regulatory support providing standardized risk assessments of engineered nanomaterials (ENM) through integration of hazard and exposure evaluations might hinder their market success and/or consumer acceptance. It is important to note that numerous nano-enabled active and intelligent packaging are "safe-by-design" as nanoparticles are integrated in systems that prevent direct contact with food and potential migration toward the food.
