Abstract

In recent years, the term "postbiotics" has become increasingly popular in food microbiology, food science, and commercial products. This importance has been raised due to the safety issues associated with live bacterial cells. Postbiotics are defined as bioactive substances of probiotics. It confers unique health-promoting functions with its chemical structure, safe profile, and long shelf life. Meanwhile, postbiotics nanoparticles (postbiotics-NPs) can be considered novel postbiotic delivery systems to deliver bioactive components with health benefits and therapeutic aims, promote the shelf-life of food products, and develop novel functional foods. The present scientific literature shows that nanotechnology approaches are not yet mature enough to be used in postbiotic delivery systems. For all of that, the potential applications of postbiotics-NPs in the food industry and biomedical fields will be a new trend in the future.
