Abstract
Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing food sectors, where its surging development is a key factor in deciding the nutritional safety and security globally. With the advancements in technological applications in this sector, systems based on nanotechnology are being developed recently to enhance productivity, efficiency, and long-term viability. Due to their multiple applications in several fields such as in health management that includes drug delivery, pathogen detection as well as in treatment of polluted water have made it one of the promising technologies for boosting the efficacy as well as in reducing the negative impacts on the environment. In context with the above, this article emphasizes on the current scenario of implementing nanotechnology in fisheries and aquaculture.
