Abstract
Infectious diseases resulting from the high pathogenic potential of several bacteria possesses a major threat to human health and safety. Traditional methods used for screening of these microorganisms face major issues with respect to detection time, selectivity and specificity which may delay treatment for critically ill patients past the optimal time. Thus, a convincing and essential need exists to upgrade the existing methodologies for the fast detection of bacteria. In this context, increasing number of newly emerging nanomaterials (NMs) have been discovered for their effective use and applications in the area of diagnosis in bacterial infections. Recently, functional fluorescent nanomaterials (FNMs) are extensively explored in the field of biomedical research, particularly in developing new diagnostic tools, nanosensors, specific imaging modalities and targeted drug delivery systems for bacterial infection. It is interesting to note that organic fluorophores and fluorescent proteins have played vital role for imaging and sensing technologies for long, however, off lately fluorescent nanomaterials are increasingly replacing these due to the latter's unprecedented fluorescence brightness, stability in the biological environment, high quantum yield along with high sensitivity due to enhanced surface property etc. Again, taking advantage of their photo-excitation property, these can also be used for either photothermal and photodynamic therapy to eradicate bacterial infection and biofilm formation. Here, in this review, we have paid particular attention on summarizing literature reports on FNMs which includes studies detailing fluorescence-based bacterial detection methodologies, antibacterial and antibiofilm applications of the same. It is expected that the present review will attract the attention of the researchers working in this field to develop new engineered FNMs for the comprehensive diagnosis and treatment of bacterial infection and biofilm formation.

Abstract
Globally, food safety and security are receiving a lot of attention to ensure a steady supply of nutrient-rich and safe food. Nanotechnology is used in a wide range of technical processes, including the development of new materials and the enhancement of food safety and security. Nanomaterials are used to improve the protective effects of food and help detect microbial contamination, hazardous chemicals, and pesticides. Nanosensors are used to detect pathogens and allergens in food. Food processing is enhanced further by nanocapsulation, which allows for the delivery of bioactive compounds, increases food bioavailability, and extends food shelf life. Various forms of nanomaterials have been developed to improve food safety and enhance agricultural productivity, including nanometals, nanorods, nanofilms, nanotubes, nanofibers, nanolayers, and nanosheets. Such materials are used for developing nanofertilizers, nanopesticides, and nanomaterials to induce plant growth, genome modification, and transgene expression in plants. Nanomaterials have antimicrobial properties, promote plants' innate immunity, and act as delivery agents for active ingredients. Nanocomposites offer good acid-resistance capabilities, effective recyclability, significant thermostability, and enhanced storage stability. Nanomaterials have been extensively used for the targeted delivery and release of genes and proteins into plant cells. In this review article, we discuss the role of nanotechnology in food safety and security. Furthermore, we include a partial literature survey on the use of nanotechnology in food packaging, food safety, food preservation using smart nanocarriers, the detection of food-borne pathogens and allergens using nanosensors, and crop growth and yield improvement; however, extensive research on nanotechnology is warranted.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is a powerful tool and fast-growing research area in many novel arenas, ranging from biomedicine to engineering and energy storage. Nanotechnology has great potential to make a significant positive contribution in forensic science, which deals with the identification and investigation of crimes, finding relationships between pieces of evidence and perpetrators. Nano-forensics is related to the development of nanosensors for crime investigations and inspection of terrorist activity by analyzing the presence of illicit drugs, explosives, toxic gases, biological agents, and so forth. In this regard, carbon nanomaterials have huge potential for next-generation nanosensors due to their outstanding properties, including strength combined with flexibility, large specific surface area, high electrical conductivity, and little noise. Moreover, their combination with polymers can provide nanocomposites with novel and enhanced performance owed to synergy between the composite components. This review concisely recapitulates up-to-date advances in the development of polymer composites incorporating carbon-based nanomaterials for forensic science. The properties of the different carbon nanomaterials, several methods used to analyze functional polymeric nanocomposites, and their applications in forensic investigation are discussed. Furthermore, present challenges and forthcoming outlooks on the design of new polymer/carbon nanomaterial composites for crime prevention are highlighted.

Abstract
Foodborne infection is one of the leading sources of infections spreading across the world. Foodborne pathogens are recognized as multidrug-resistant (MDR) pathogens posing a significant problem in the food industry and healthy consumers resulting in enhanced economic burden, and nosocomial infections. The continued search for enhanced microbial detection tools has piqued the interest of the CRISPR-Cas system and Nanoparticles. CRISPR-Cas system is present in the bacterial genome of some prokaryotes and is repurposed as a theragnostic tool against MDR pathogens. Nanoparticles and composites have also emerged as an efficient tool in theragnostic applications against MDR pathogens. The diagnostic limitations of the CRISPR-Cas system are believed to be overcome by a synergistic combination of the nanoparticles system and CRISPR-Cas using nanoparticles as vehicles. In this review, we have discussed the diagnostic application of CRISPR-Cas technologies along with their potential usage in applications like phage resistance, phage vaccination, strain typing, genome editing, and antimicrobial. we have also elucidated the antimicrobial and detection role of nanoparticles against foodborne MDR pathogens. Moreover, the novel combinatorial approach of CRISPR-Cas and nanoparticles for their synergistic effects in pathogen clearance and drug delivery vehicles has also been discussed. Bacterial CRISPR Cas system are repurposed as a thergodiganostic tool against MDR pathogen. Combinatorial approach of CRISPR-Cas and Nanoparticle is used as delivery vehicle and clearing pathogens. CRISPR-Cas and Nanoparticles is a tool for the food safety profiling of MDR food-borne pathogen.

Abstract
Foodborne pathogens are threats in food and a cause of major health issues globally. Microbial safety has become a key concern to eliminate disease-causing pathogens from the food supply. For this purpose, the Cy5 dye conjugated with a double-biotin DNA linkage and a detection antibody (Cy5-Ab complexes) was developed to amplify a foodborne detection signal on a microarray. Additionally, the ES-biochip was designed to attain a visual screening of an antibody microarray for the simultaneous threat detection of Salmonella and Escherichia coli (E. coli). Quantification was also performed by fluorescence. After optimizing the Cy5-Ab complex appendage and enhancing the detection signal from a sandwich immunoassay, high sensitivity and selectivity were observed. The limits of detection for both pathogens in buffer and food samples were 103 CFU mL−1 and less than 9 CFU mL−1 by visual screening and fluorescent intensity quantification, respectively. Mono and duplex responses were not significantly different which means that no cross-reactivity occurred. Uniquely, the assays hold great potential to be used in several fields, such as clinical diagnosis of foodborne microbes, food hygiene screening, and pathogen detection. A visual ES-biochip was highly sensitive and selective as well as enabled simultaneous detection. An optimized amount of Cy5 dye was attached to a Cy5-Ab complex label using a double-biotin DNA linkage.![]()

Abstract
Acinetobacter baumannii is a remarkable microorganism known for its diversity of habitat and its multi-drug resistance, resulting in hard-to-treat infections. Thus, a sensitive method for the identification and detection of Acinetobacter baumannii is vital. However, current methods used for the detection of pathogens have not improved in the past decades and suffer from long process times and low detection limits. A cheap, quick, and easy detection mechanism is needed. In this work, we successfully prepared indium phosphide quantum dots with a zinc sulphide shell, conjugated to a targeting aptamer ligand, to specifically label Acinetobacter baumannii. The system retained both the photophysical properties of the quantum dots and the folded structure and molecular recognition function of the aptamer, therefore successfully targeting Acinetobacter baumannii. Confocal microscopy and transmission electron microscopy showed the fluorescent quantum dots surrounding the Acinetobacter baumannii cells confirming the specificity of the aptamer conjugated to indium phosphide quantum dots with a zinc sulphide shell. Controls were undertaken with a different bacteria species, showing no binding of the aptamer conjugated quantum dots. Our strategy offers a novel method to detect bacteria and engineer a scalable platform for fluorescence detection, therefore improving current methods and allowing for better treatment.

Abstract
Bacterial infections remain the principal cause of mortality worldwide, making the detection of pathogenic bacteria highly important, especially Escherichia coli (E. coli). Current E. coli detection methods are labour-intensive, time-consuming, or require expensive instrumentation, making it critical to develop new strategies that are sensitive and specific. Microchips are an automated analytical technique used to analyse food based on their separation efficiency and low analyte consumption, which make them the preferred method to detect pathogenic bacteria. This review presents an overview of microchip-based analytical methods for analysing E. coli, which were published in recent years. Specifically, this review focuses on current research based on microchips for the detection of E. coli and reviews the limitations of microchip-based methods and future perspectives for the analysis of pathogenic bacteria.

Abstract
Quantum dots (QDs) have been exploited for a range of scientific applications where the analytes can be expected to have significant photoluminescent properties. Previously, the applications of QDs as nanosensors for the detection of toxics in biospecimens, especially in cases of poisoning, have been discussed. This review focuses on the applications of QDs as biosensors for the detection of phytotoxins, vertebrate and invertebrate toxins, and microbial toxins present in biospecimens. Further, the role of QDs in the measurement of biochemical parameters of patient/victim as an indirect method of poison detection is also highlighted.

Abstract
The development of sensitive methods for the determination of potential bacterial contamination is of upmost importance for environmental monitoring and food safety. In this study, we present a new method combining a fast pre-enrichment step using a microporous cryogel and a detection and identification step using antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and labelled antibodies, respectively. The experimental method consists of: (i) the capture of large amounts of bacteria from liquid samples by using a highly porous and functionalized cryogel; (ii) the detection and categorisation of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria by determining their affinities toward a small set of AMPs; and (iii) the identification of the bacterial strain by using labelled detection antibodies. As proof of concept, the assessment of the three steps of the analysis was performed by using Escherichia coli and Bacillus sp. as models for Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria, respectively. The use of AMPs with broad specificity combined with labelled antibodies enabled the detection and potential categorization of a large spectrum of unknown or unexpected bacteria.

Abstract
The electrochromism of a water-soluble naturally oxidized electrochromic polymer, ox-PPE, is harnessed for rapid and facile bacterial detection, discrimination, and susceptibility testing. The ox-PPE solution shows distinct colorimetric and spectroscopic changes within 30 min when mixed with live bacteria. For the underlying mechanism, it is found that ox-PPE responds to the reducing species (e.g. cysteine and glutathione) released by metabolically active bacteria. This reduction reaction is ubiquitous among various bacterial strains, with a noticeable difference that enables discrimination of Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacterial strains. Combining ox-PPE with antibiotics, methicillin-susceptible and -resistant S. aureus can be differentiated within 2.5 h. Proof-of-concept demonstration of ox-PPE for antimicrobial susceptibility testing is carried out by incubating E. coli with various antibiotics. The obtained minimum inhibition concentrations are consistent with the conventional culture-based methods, but with the procedure time significantly shortened to 3 h.

Abstract
Salmonella is one of the main causes of foodborne infectious diseases, posing a serious threat to public health. It can enter the food supply chain at various stages of production, processing, distribution, and marketing. High prevalence of Salmonella necessitates efficient and effective approaches for its identification, detection, and monitoring at an early stage. Because conventional methods based on plate counting and real-time polymerase chain reaction are time-consuming and laborious, novel rapid detection methods are urgently needed for in-field and on-line applications. Biosensors provide many advantages over conventional laboratory assays in terms of sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy, and show superiority in rapid response and potential portability. They are now recognized as promising alternative tools and one of the most on-site applicable and end user-accessible methods for rapid detection. In recent years, we have witnessed a flourishing of studies in the development of robust and elaborate biosensors for detection of Salmonella in food. This review aims to provide a comprehensive overview on Salmonella biosensors by highlighting different signal-transducing mechanisms (optical, electrochemical, piezoelectric, etc.) and critically analyzing its recent trends, particularly in combination with nanomaterials, microfluidics, portable instruments, and smartphones. Furthermore, current challenges are emphasized and future perspectives are discussed.

Abstract
Infectious diseases caused by pathogenic bacteria, especially antibiotic-resistant bacteria, are one of the biggest threats to global health. To date, bacterial contamination is detected using conventional culturing techniques, which are highly dependent on expert users, limited by the processing time and on-site availability. Hence, real-time and continuous monitoring of pathogen levels is required to obtain valuable information that could assist health agencies in guiding prevention and containment of pathogen-related outbreaks. Nanotechnology-based smart sensors are opening new avenues for early and rapid detection of such pathogens at the patient's point-of-care. Nanomaterials can play an essential role in bacterial sensing owing to their unique optical, magnetic, and electrical properties. Carbon nanoparticles, metallic nanoparticles, metal oxide nanoparticles, and various types of nanocomposites are examples of smart nanomaterials that have drawn intense attention in the field of microbial detection. These approaches, together with the advent of modern technologies and coupled with machine learning and wireless communication, represent the future trend in the diagnosis of infectious diseases. This review provides an overview of the recent advancements in the successful harnessing of different nanoparticles for bacterial detection. In the beginning, we have introduced the fundamental concepts and mechanisms behind the design and strategies of the nanoparticles-based diagnostic platform. Representative research efforts are highlighted for in vitro and in vivo detection of bacteria. A comprehensive discussion is then presented to cover the most commonly adopted techniques for bacterial identification, including some seminal studies to detect bacteria at the single-cell level. Finally, we discuss the current challenges and a prospective outlook on the field, together with the recommended solutions.

Abstract
Environmental factors, oxidation and microorganisms contamination, are the major causes for food spoilage, which leads to sensory features alteration, loss of quality, production of harmful chemicals and growth of foodborne pathogens capable to cause severe illness. Synthetic preservatives, traditional conserving methods and food packaging (FP), although effective in counteracting food spoilage, do not allow the real-time monitoring of food quality during storage and transportation and assent a relatively short shelf life. In addition, FP may protect food by the spoilage caused by external contaminations, but is ineffective against foodborne microorganisms. FP preservative functionalities could be improved adding edible natural antioxidants and antimicrobials, but such chemicals are easily degradable. Nowadays, thanks to nanotechnology techniques, it is possible to improve the FP performances, formulating and inserting more stable antioxidant/antimicrobial ingredients, improving mechanical properties and introducing intelligent functions. The state-of-the-art in the field of nanomaterial-based improved FP, the advantages that might derive from their extensive introduction on the market and the main concerns associated to the possible migration and toxicity of nanomaterials, frequently neglected in existing reviews, have been herein discussed.

Abstract
Multiplex detection and quantification of bacteria in water by using portable devices are particularly essential in low and middle-income countries where access to clean drinking water is limited. Addressing this crucial problem, we report a highly sensitive immunoassay sensor system utilizing the fluorescence technique with magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) to separate target bacteria and two different types of quantum dots (CdTe and Ni doped CdTe QDs) incorporated into a passive microfluidic chip to transport and to form sandwich complexes for the detection of two target bacteria, namely Escherichia coli (E. coli) and Salmonella enteritidis (S. enteritidis) in less than 60 min. The assay is carried out on a capillary driven microfluidic chip that can be operated by merely pipetting the samples and reagents, and fluorescence measurements are done by using a handheld fluorescence spectrophotometer, which renders the system portable. The linear range of the method was found to be 101 to 105 cfu mL-1 for both E. coli and S. enteritidis. The limit of detection (LOD) was calculated to be 5 and 3 cfu mL-1 for E. coli and S. enteritidis, respectively. The selectivity of the method was examined by testing Enterobacter dissolvens (E. dissolvens) and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) samples, and no significant interference was observed. The method was also demonstrated to detect bacteria in tap water and lake water samples spiked with target bacteria.

Abstract
Two types of lateral flow immunochromatographic test strips (LFITS) using gold nanoparticles and fluorescent CdTe quantum dots (QDs) as signal labels, respectively, were developed for Shiga toxin type II (STX2) assays. Under optimal conditions, the corresponding visual detection limits were 25 ng mL-1 and 5 ng mL-1, respectively. The test results of gold based LFITS can be recognized directly by the naked eye, whereas the visualized results of CdTe QDs based LFITS can be observed by the aid of a UV lamp. Both assays showed good specificity and stability. The inexpensive LFITS were promising for the rapid clinical detection of STX2.

Abstract
Escherichia coli O157:H7 has been reported as an important pathogenic bacteria causing serious infection and economic loss. However, detection of Escherichia coli O157:H7 needs improvement, given its current complexity and sensitivity. Herein, we attempt to build a fluorescence sensing method to detect Escherichia coli O157:H7 with easy operation and high efficiency. The target virulence gene sequences are recognized and cleaved by the CRISPR-Cas9 system, and trigger strand displacement amplification and rolling circle amplification. After amplification reactions, massive products can hybridize with the probes, the fluorescence of which are quenched based on a metal-organic framework platform, leading to the fluorescence recovery at typical excitation/emission wavelengths of 480/518 nm. This method exhibits high sensitivity with the detection limit at 4.0 × 101 CFU mL-1 and a wide range from 1.3 × 102 CFU mL-1 to 6.5 × 104 CFU mL-1. Meanwhile, this assay also shows significant specificity and applies to practical samples with high accuracy. Therefore, our method would have great potential application in bacterial detection, food safety monitoring, or clinical diagnostics.

Abstract
The current study is focused on the application of water-soluble, fluorescent, and pH-sensitive carbon dots (CDs) as a nanoprobe for sensitive detection of pathogenic bacteria in milk and sewage water. The CDs were facilely synthesized through the controlled carbonization of sucrose using sulfuric acid and characterized through XRD, FTIR, TEM, UV-Vis Spectroscopy, and fluorescent analysis. The as-synthesized CDs were highly water-soluble, stable, and pH-sensitive fluorescent nanomaterials. The pH-related fluorescence study showed that the ratio of fluorescence intensity (Log[IF410/IF350]) changed linearly in the pH range between 4.9 and 6.9 in the Britton-Robison buffer. By determining the pH variation of the growth medium caused by the released acidic metabolites, the CDs-based ratiometric nanoprobe and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry (MS) were used for the detection and identification of Escherichia coli O157:H7, respectively. The practical applicability of the pH-sensitive fluorescent CDs-based ratiometric nanoprobe was evaluated to detect Escherichia coli O157:H7 in real samples, i.e., milk and sewage water using agar count plate method with a limit of detection (LOD) up to 1 colony-forming unit per mL (CFU/mL).

Abstract
To develop a specific method for the detection of S. aureus, chicken anti-protein A IgY was adopted for specifically capturing S. aureus, depending on the specific recognition of staphylococcal protein A (SPA) by chicken anti-protein A IgY, which can eliminate the interference from protein G-producing Streptococcus. HRP labeled IgG, Fc region of which has a high affinity towards SPA, was paired with IgY for the colorimeter analysis of the system. By optimizing the system, a super-low detection limit of 11 CFU of S. aureus in 100 μL PBS without enrichment, with a linear range from 5.0 × 102 CFU mL-1 to 5.0 × 104 CFU mL-1 was obtained. The entire assay was accomplished in less than 90 min and no cross-reactivity with the other tested bacterial species was observed. Moreover, the developed assay has been applied for the detection of S. aureus in three different types of real samples (sodium chloride injection, apple juice and human urine) with satisfactory results. To the best of our knowledge, it is the first time to report using chicken anti-protein A IgY and any IgG to detect S. aureus based on the dual-recognition mode of SPA. The novel method opened up a way for monitoring S. aureus in food samples with high sensitivity, specificity and simple operation.

Early screening of foodborne pathogens is a key to ensure food safety. In this study, we developed a microfluidic biosensor for online and sensitive detection of Salmonella based on immunomagnetic separation, fluorescence labeling and smartphone video processing. First, the immune magnetic nanoparticles were used to specifically separate and efficiently concentrate the target bacteria and the magnetic bacteria were formed. Then, the magnetic bacteria were labeled with the immune fluorescent microspheres and the fluorescent bacteria were formed. Finally, the fluorescent bacteria were continuously injected into the microfluidic chip on the smartphone-based fluorescent microscopic system, and the fluorescent spots were online counted using the smartphone App based on inter-frame difference algorithm to obtain the amount of the target bacteria. Under the optimal conditions, this proposed biosensor was able to quantitatively detect Salmonella typhimurium ranging from 1.4 × 102 to 1.4 × 106 CFU/mL, and its lower detection limit was 58 CFU/mL. This biosensor could be extended for detection of multiple foodborne pathogens using different fluorescent materials.

Abstract
Although a fundamental understanding of the pathogenicity of most biothreat agents has been elucidated and available treatments have increased substantially over the past decades, they still represent a significant public health threat in this age of (bio)terrorism, indiscriminate warfare, pollution, climate change, unchecked population growth, and globalization. The key step to almost all prevention, protection, prophylaxis, post-exposure treatment, and mitigation of any bioagent is early detection. Here, we review available methods for detecting bioagents including pathogenic bacteria and viruses along with their toxins. An introduction placing this subject in the historical context of previous naturally occurring outbreaks and efforts to weaponize selected agents is first provided along with definitions and relevant considerations. An overview of the detection technologies that find use in this endeavor along with how they provide data or transduce signal within a sensing configuration follows. Current "gold" standards for biothreat detection/diagnostics along with a listing of relevant FDA approved in vitro diagnostic devices is then discussed to provide an overview of the current state of the art. Given the 2014 outbreak of Ebola virus in Western Africa and the recent 2016 spread of Zika virus in the Americas, discussion of what constitutes a public health emergency and how new in vitro diagnostic devices are authorized for emergency use in the U.S. are also included. The majority of the Review is then subdivided around the sensing of bacterial, viral, and toxin biothreats with each including an overview of the major agents in that class, a detailed cross-section of different sensing methods in development based on assay format or analytical technique, and some discussion of related microfluidic lab-on-a-chip/point-of-care devices. Finally, an outlook is given on how this field will develop from the perspective of the biosensing technology itself and the new emerging threats they may face.

Abstract
In the modern era of molecular evidence-based medicine and advanced biomedical technologies, the rapid, sensitive and specific assay of multiple pathogens is critical to, but largely absent from, clinical practice. Therefore, to improve the current ordinary separation and collection method, we report herein a strategy of magnetism-resolved separation and fluorescence quantification for near-simultaneous detection of multiple pathogens, followed by the direct antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST). To accomplish this strategy, we utilized aptamer-modified fluorescent-magnetic multifunctional nanoprobes (apt-FMNPs). FMNPs with intriguing different magnetic responses and excellent fluorescence quality were first self-assembled based on metal coordination interaction using (3-mercaptopropyl) trimethoxysilane, magnetic γ-Fe2O3, and fluorescent quantum dots as matrix components. Then, aptamers, which specific to target pathogens of Escherichia coli O157:H7 ( E. coli) and Salmonella typhimurium ( S. typ), were conjugated with FMNPs to yield apt-FMNPs nanoprobes for multiple pathogens assay. Based on the discrepant magnetic response of pathogen@nanoprobes complex under the identical external magnetic field, the model bacteria were fished out by magnetic adsorption at different time points and subjected to fluorescence quantification with good linear ranges and detection limits within 1h. Multiple pathogens spiked in real samples were also effectively detected by the apt-FMNPs and sequentially fished out for AST assay, which showed similar results to that for pure pathogens. The apt-FMNPs-based strategy of near-simultaneous detection of multiple pathogens shows promise for the potential application in the diagnosis and treatment of pathogen-related infectious diseases.

Abstract
The rapid development of nanotechnology has transformed many domains of food science, especially those that involve the processing, packaging, storage, transportation, functionality, and other safety aspects of food. A wide range of nanostructured materials (NSMs), from inorganic metal, metal oxides, and their nanocomposites to nano-organic materials with bioactive agents, has been applied to the food industry. Despite the huge benefits nanotechnology has to offer, there are emerging concerns regarding the use of nanotechnology, as the accumulation of NSMs in human bodies and in the environment can cause several health and safety hazards. Therefore, safety and health concerns as well as regulatory policies must be considered while manufacturing, processing, intelligently and actively packaging, and consuming nano-processed food products. This review aims to provide a basic understanding regarding the applications of nanotechnology in the food packaging and processing industries and to identify the future prospects and potential risks associated with the use of NSMs.

Abstract
Although significant technological advancements have been made in the development of analytical biosensor chips for detecting bacterial strains (E. coli, S. Mutans and B. Subtilis), critical requirements i.e. limit of detection (LOD), fast time of response, ultra-sensitivity with high reproducibility and good shelf-life with robust sensing capability have yet to be met within a single sensor chip. In order to achieve these criteria, we present an electrically-receptive thermally-responsive (ER-TR) sensor chip comprised of simple filter paper used as substrate coated with composite of poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) polymer (PNIPAm) - graphene nanoplatelet (GR) followed by evaporation of Au electrodes for capturing both Gram-positive (S. mutans and B. subtilis) and Gram-negative (E. coli) bacterial cells in real-time. Autoclave water, tap water, lake water and milk samples were tested with ER-TR chip with and without bacterial strains at varying concentration range 101-105 cells/mL. The sensor was integrated with in-house built printed circuit board (PCB) to transmit/receive electrical signals. The interaction of E. coli, S. mutans and B. subtilis cells with fibers of PNIPAm-GR resulted in a change of electrical resistance and the readout was monitored wirelessly in real-time using MATLAB algorithm. Finally, prepared ER-TR chip exhibited the reproducibility of 85-97% with shelf-life of up to four weeks after testing with lake water sample.

Abstract
Rapid, sensitive, point-of-care detection of bacteria is extremely important in food safety. To address this requirement, we developed a new surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS)-based lateral flow (LF) strip biosensor combined with recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) for simultaneous detection of Listeria monocytogenes and Salmonella enterica serotype Enteritidis. AuMBA@Ag core-shell nanoparticles were used in this SERS-LF. Highly sensitive quantitative detection is achieved by measuring the characteristic peak intensities of SERS tags. Under optimal conditions, the SERS intensities of MBA at 1077 cm-1 on test lines are used to measure S. Enteritidis (y = 1980.6x - 539.3, R2 = 0.9834) and L. monocytogenes (y = 1696.0x - 844, R2 = 0.9889), respectively. The limit of detection is 27 CFU/mL for S. Enteritidis and 19 CFU/mL for L. monocytogenes. Significantly, this SERS-LF has high specificity and applicability in the detection of L. monocytogenes and S. Enteritidis in food samples. Therefore, the SERS-LF is a feasible method for the rapid and quantitative detection of a broad range of bacterial pathogens in real food samples.

Abstract
The elimination of disease-causing microbes from the food supply is a primary goal and this review deals with the overall techniques available for detection of food-borne pathogens. Now-a-days conventional methods are replaced by advanced methods like Biosensors, Nucleic Acid-based Tests (NAT), and different PCR-based techniques used in molecular biology to identify specific pathogens. Bacillus cereus, Staphylococcus aureus, Proteus vulgaris, Escherichia coli, Campylobacter, Listeria monocytogenes, Salmonella spp., Aspergillus spp., Fusarium spp., Penicillium spp., and pathogens are detected in contaminated food items that cause always diseases in human in any one or the other way. Identification of food-borne pathogens in a short period of time is still a challenge to the scientific field in general and food technology in particular. The low level of food contamination by major pathogens requires specific sensitive detection platforms and the present area of hot research looking forward to new nanomolecular techniques for nanomaterials, make them suitable for the development of assays with high sensitivity, response time, and portability. With the sound of these, we attempt to highlight a comprehensive overview about food-borne pathogen detection by rapid, sensitive, accurate, and cost affordable in situ analytical methods from conventional methods to recent molecular approaches for advanced food and microbiology research.

Abstract
Fluorescent carbon dots, zero-dimensional nanomaterials with surface ligands, have been studied extensively over the past few years in biolabelling or fluorescence-based live cell assays. In the past, synthetic organic dyes have been used as cell tracking materials, but they have severe limitations; fluorescent carbon dots may pave the way to biolabelling and cell imaging. In this work, green fluorescent carbon dots have been synthesized from a green source, gram, without any sort of covalent or ionic modifications. These gram-derived carbon dots are unique with respect to synthetic commercial cell-tracking dyes as they are non-toxic, cell internalization occurs quickly, and they have excellent bioconjugation with bacterial cells. Our aim is to establish these carbon dots in a biolabelling assay with its other physicochemical features like the tunable luminescence property, high degree of water solubility and low toxicity, towards various environments (wide range of pH, high ionic strength). Our study introduces a new perspective on the commercialization of carbon dots as a potential alternative to synthetic organic dyes for fluorescence-based cell-labelling assays.

Abstract
Nanotechnology has paved the way to innovative food packaging materials and analytical methods to provide the consumers with healthier food and to reduce the ecological footprint of the whole food chain. Combining antimicrobial and antifouling properties, thermal and mechanical protection, oxygen and moisture barrier, as well as to verify the actual quality of food, e.g., sensors to detect spoilage, bacterial growth, and to monitor incorrect storage conditions, or anticounterfeiting devices in food packages may extend the products shelf life and ensure higher quality of foods. Also the ecological footprint of food chain can be reduced by developing new completely recyclable and/or biodegradable packages from natural and eco-friendly resources. The contribution of nanotechnologies to these goals is reviewed in this chapter, together with a description of portable devices ("lab-on-chip," sensors, nanobalances, etc.) which can be used to assess the quality of food and an overview of regulations in force on food contact materials.

Abstract
Nanotechnology is an emerging and rapidly developing toolbox that has novel and unique applications to food science and agriculture. Fast and impressive developments in nanotechnology for food and agriculture have led to new experimental prototype technologies and products. Developing various types of nanodelivery systems, detection tools, nanoscale modifications of bulk or surface properties, fabrication of wide-range bionanosensors, and biodegradable nanoplatforms can potentially improve consumer health and safety, product shelf life and stability, bioavailability, environmental sustainability, efficiency of processing and packaging, and real-time monitoring. Some recently developed nanotechnology techniques and potential product applications of nanotechnology are summarized in this review. Exposure to nanomaterials may be harmful to the consumer and the environment and might increase the potential of risk. For this reason, evaluation of the potential risks resulting from the interaction of nanomaterials with biological systems, humans, and the environment is also reviewed.
