MinacNed, the Dutch participant in the European network for micro/nano associations, is convening technology providers and food producers to discuss its roadmap for micro- and nanotechnology in food and nutrition, specifically in the areas of sensors and detection systems, emulsions, filtration, and fractioning. The article says that MinacNed’s roadmap features fourteen vectors for developing value-added food and nutrition innovations in the next five years. The article says that most of the collaborations initiated by the roadmap are likely to be international in scope because of the roadmap’s focus on the intersection between the micro/nanotechnology and food sectors. The article says that the roadmap, despite being limited to food applications, also has implications for pharmaceuticals and agriculture.
