Abstract:
Charles Q. Choi: In the next five years, dozens of food and agricultural products based on nanotechnology may come to market, including a chocolate milkshake that supposedly tastes better and is more nutritious than conventional shakes and chicken-feed additives that can remove dangerous germs from poultry intended for human consumption.
