    APPLICATION OF NANOTECHNOLOGY IN FOOD PROCESSING AND PACKAGING
    (RESEARCH PROCEEDINGS OF INTERNATIONAL FORUM TASHKENT,, 2023) Sabeeha Jabeen, Shashi Bala, Abdul Rahman Khan, Tahmeena Khan
    Nanotechnology comprises the wide-ranging application in food industries, such as packaging, and processing of food materials at the nanometer scale. The exploration of nanostructured materials in food industries are continue for processing and packaging purposes. Existing finding methods for food processing and packaging are expensive and time-taking and needs innovative technologies. Novelties in, nano-processing, and nano-packaging, are the current developments in the food sector. The amalgamation of nanotechnology with the food engineering industries and food packing industries now improved the excellence of foodstuff. The newest noteworthy investigation and improvement in the application of nanostructured-dependent packing of food items and processing is an antimicrobial application to detect spoilage and prevent food. Nanostructured materials are now striking findings in food packing systems as their enhanced useful properties like mechanical strength and barricading properties even own antimicrobic and antioxidant actions to preserve the excellence and range the shelf life in numerous food applications. Numerous nanostructured materials (silicate nano clay, metal oxide nanostructures, and polymer-based nanocomposites) are now involved in food packing systems. This Article will highlight the current nanostructured material in packaging and food processing applications together with food safety.

    INNER TRANSITION ELEMENT BASED NANOMATERIALS
    (Zenodo, 2026) Nashra Fatima, Ekhlakh Veg, Tahmeena Khan
    Nanomaterials based on inner transition elements, especially those made from lanthanides and actinides, have remarkable physicochemical characteristics that allow for multipurpose integration in energy, sensing, and medicinal applications. Recent research emphasizes how their distinct optical stability, narrow emission bands, and adjustable near-infrared luminescence enable enhanced sensing modalities, photothermal therapy, and deep-tissue bioimaging. Furthermore, hybrid nanostructures and metal organic frameworks based on lanthanides provide a variety of platforms for sustainable technologies, environmental monitoring, and catalysis. This review highlights some current research on inner transition element-based nanomaterials made using diverse techniques that have been used in a variety of applications.

    ZnO-BASED NANOCOMPOSITES AS EFFICIENT PHOTOCATALYSTS FOR DYE- CONTAMINATED WATER TREATMENT
    (Zenodo, 2026) Ekhlakh Veg, Nashra Fatima, Tahmeena Khan
    Industrial wastewater containing synthetic dyes poses a major environmental and health concern because these pollutants are toxic, stable, and difficult to remove using conventional treatment methods. Among various photocatalysts, zinc oxide (ZnO) is extensively studied due to its low cost, chemical stability, non-toxic nature, and strong oxidative potential. Nevertheless, its practical application is restricted by a wide band gap and fast recombination of photo-generated charge carriers, which reduce activity under visible light. Recent progress shows that forming ZnO- based nanocomposites effectively overcomes these limitations by improving light absorption, suppressing charge recombination, and increasing reactive surface sites.

    Metal Oxide Nanoparticles in Environmental and Industrial Microbiology
    (Zenodo, 2024) Sabeeha Jabeen, Ekhlakh Veg, Shashi Bala, Tahmeena Khan
    Metal oxide-based nanoparticles (NPs) have numerous applications in science and technology. This paper focuses on applications of NPs Environmental and Industrial Microbiology. Metal oxide-based NPs find applications in wastewater remediation, gas sensing, and heavy metal eradication because of their non-toxic behavior, large surface area, bandgap, and tremendous catalytic performance. Attainment of selective nanostructures of metal oxide nanoparticles is possible through the green synthetic methodology without generating any toxic by-products. These properties make them effective in applications ranging from pollution control and bioremediation to industrial processes like biofuel production and antimicrobial surface creation. However, the potential toxicity of these NPs and their long-term environmental impact pose significant challenges. This Paper highlights the promise of metal oxide NPs in advancing microbiology while underscoring the need for comprehensive risk assessments to ensure their safe application.

    CuO NANOPARTCLES AND THEIR ANTIBACTERIAL ACTIVITY EVALUATION
    (Zenodo, 2024) Sabeeha Jabeen, Ekhlakh Veg, Shashi Bala, Seema Joshi, Tahmeena Khan
    The development of antibiotic resistance is one of the most pressing problems in global healthcare. Microbial resistance to antibiotics might be combatted by the use metal-oxide-based nanoparticles (NPs). Many studies have shown that Copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) have potent antibacterial activity against different Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. This review summarizes some recent studies to investigate the antibacterial activity of the CuO NPs fabricated from different strategies, particularly green synthesis which has emerged as an environment-friendly approach for the fabrication of NPs.
