  4. Abstract:
  5. Food science researchers are concerned about global food wastage due to decreased shelf life. It has been shown that using approaches based on nanotechnology, including metal-based nanoparticles (NPs), can alleviate the issues with decreased shelf life and environmental problems. Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and their synthesis have seen notable advancements in the last several decades. AuNPs are now utilised more often in industrial and medicinal settings. AuNPs are being employed in the nanopackaging industry as a recently adopted technique because of their medicinal and antibacterial properties and their inert and hypoallergenic nature. When employed in the food industry, AuNPs have advantages as well as limitations similar to other NPs. Still, a substantial body of research has indicated that, because of their unique nontoxic properties, AuNPs might be used to overcome other NP limitations. This chapter discusses synthesising techniques, applications in the food industry, and safety issues with AuNPs. © 2024 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved
