Food Industry• Currently $1.6 trillion
industry in U.S. sales alone
• Reasons for using nanotechnology:– Better quality– Improved/New tastes– Reduced cost– Prolonged shelf-life– Healthier food
• Leads to higher profit http://www.nano.org.uk/news/march2009/1820.jpg

Nanotechnology in Food Industry
• U.S. is current leader in nanofood technology– Expected to be
surpassed by China in near future
• Most new research is kept private by companies– Difficult to know exact
scale/state of research
• Estimate: $20 billion in nanofood use/research http://nano.foe.org.au/sites/default/files/

Nanofood• Applications of
nanotechnology to food:– Altering texture of food
components– Encapsulating food
components or additives– Controlling release of
flavors– Enhancing properties of
nutrients (e.g. solubility)http://lamarguerite.files.wordpress.com/

Enhanced Nutrient Solubility• NovaSOL (by Aquanova Germany)
– Uses “product micelles” (~30 nm diameter) to encapsulate insoluble nutrients into amphiphilic structures
– Allows food additives to be delivered in clear solutions
– Micelle structure increases bioavailability• 4x better absorption in cells

Altered Texture• Unilever has developed a
low-fat ice cream using nano-scaled emulsion particles– Uses 90% less emulsion to
give the same highly consistent texture
– Therefore, as “creamy” as regular ice cream with a fat content decrease from ~16% to ~1%
• Similar technology being used in mayonnaise http://artbistro.monster.com/nfs/artbistro/

Encapsulation of Additives
• Tip Top UP bread– Introduces Omega-3 from fish oil into
bread– Oil is held in nano-capsules that prevent
oxidation, eliminating any fishy odor

Interactive Foods
• Use nano-capsule technology to change food based on user-preferences
• For example, one tasteless, colorless beverage contains nano-capsules of differently colored/flavored ingredients
• Different microwave frequencies select which color/flavor is released

Approaches to Safe Nanotechnology
Managing the Health and Safety Concerns Associated with Engineered Nanomaterials
Produced by the Department of Health and Human Services
![Page 22: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Potential Health Concerns
• Exposure Routes– Inhalation
• Effects Seen in Animal Studies– In rats at equivalent mass doses,
insoluble ultrafine particles are causing pulmonary inflammation, tissue damage, and lung tumors
http://www.cdc.gov/niosh/docs/2009-125/pdfs/2009-125.pdf
Formation of collagen following deposition of SWCNTs in the lungs of mice
![Page 23: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Single Walled Carbon Nanotubes
• SWCNT were instilled into the lungs of rats– At 1 to 5 mg/ kg weight multi-focal
granulomas were observed.– Based on their findings in mice, Shvedova
et al. [2005] estimated that workers may be at risk of developing lung lesions if they were exposed to SWCNT over a period of 20 days at the current OSHA PEL for graphite (5 mg/m3)
![Page 24: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Potential Safety Hazards
• Fire and Explosion Risk– nanoscale combustible material could present a
higher risk than a similar quantity of coarser material, given its unique properties
• Risk of Catalytic Reactions– Depending on their composition and structure,
some nanomaterials may initiate catalytic reactions that, based on their chemical composition, would not otherwise be anticipated [Pritchard 2004].
![Page 25: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Guidelines For Working with Engineered Nanomaterials
• Risk Management Program– Engineering Controls– Dust collection efficiency filters– Work Practices– Personal protective clothing– Respirators– Cleanup and disposal of Nanomaterials
![Page 26: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Research Needs
• Exposure Assessment– How people get exposed to nanoparticles
in the work place• Toxicity and Internal Dose
– Investigate and determine the physical and chemical properties that influence the potential toxicity of nanomaterials

Rebuttal
• We appreciate all the positive comments regarding our presentation.
• The main complaint with our presentation seems to be that our applications were not in-depth enough. – We agree that this is the case; however, due to the private
nature of most of this research, there is simply not a vast amount of information available regarding the specifics of the nanotechnology’s use, as companies do not want their research being made public for other companies to see.
– Therefore, due to the lack of detailed information, we presented a variety of applications to make the presentation interesting despite a necessarily superficial treatment of each application.

Group 1 Evaluation of Group 3
Presentation:Nanotechnology in the Food Industry
By Group 3
![Page 31: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Slides had good format◦ Large, easily readable, text◦ Lots of relevant graphics
The group gave a good overall presentation on how nanotechnology in the food industry not only effects food products, but how the industry can be changed on a global scale.
Presenters answered questions with further information than what was presented◦ Showed good preparation for presentation
But the presentation was information-light, so adding the info to the slides would have been helpful
Positive Notes
![Page 32: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
The team as a whole could have practiced more◦ Rushed pace◦ Looked at monitor often◦ While they seemed to at least be familiar with the
information they were presenting, it didn’t seem like anyone really had a solid understanding of the topic.
Seemed like the group could not find adequate information for presentation◦ Little detail in slides◦ Would have been better to focus on one or two food
topics and give more details and data rather than present so many different topics with fewer data.
Opportunities for Improvement

Things done wellGood text size and eye appealing slides that
were easy to look atA wide range of topics concerning the topic
were effectively covered and elaborated on to some degree
All group members during the presentation knew the material and presented it well
![Page 38: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/38.jpg)
RecommendationsMany of the illustrations, while nice to look
at, provided no substance to the presentation as a whole
There was no conclusion or recommendations by the presenters located in the presentation. Presentation needed a closing section.

Presentation Review
• The third speaker did not seem very knowledgeable on the topic.
• The third speaker also seemed to read from the slides.
• One of the graphics was stretched out on the presentation slide. It looked like they didn’t take time to put it together—rushed.
![Page 41: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/41.jpg)
Presentation Review
• The first two speakers did a very good job. They spoke slowly and clearly and were easy to understand.
• The presentation content was very interesting and well developed.
• The areas discussed were relevant to the audience, which helped to keep interest.

Review• Slide layout was agreeable and pleasant to look at
most of the time, there are some slides with dead space that should have been utilized.
• The presentation was detailed and well thought out.• The presentation was very segmented between the
group members, which results in an absence of presentation flow among the members.
• The presentation overall was quite good, and the audience was acknowledged frequently (good eye contact).
![Page 44: Applications of Nanotechnology in the Food Industry April 9, 2010 S3: James Kancewick, Michael Koetting, Bradford Lamb .](https://reader034.fdocuments.us/reader034/viewer/2022051516/56649d2d5503460f94a0466a/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Critique of Information• The research seemed very broad and encompassing, we
would like to have seen a more in depth analysis of the material. Example: instead of telling us that nanotechnology use leads to higher profit, show a side by side comparison of profit before and after nanotechnology applications.
• Even with the segments, the addition of a section with a real-world application slide was great. We like to see the actual use of this research.
• We would recommend more time and space be devoted to this real-world application. This is the most interesting part of any presentation for future engineers and we felt that it should have been the presentation focus.
