Abstract
The integration of biosensors and the Internet of Things (IoT) in food packaging is gaining significant interest in rapidly enhancing food safety and traceability worldwide. Currently, the IoT is one of the most intriguing topics in the digital and virtual world. Biosensors can be integrated into food packaging to monitor, sense, and identify early signs of food spoilage or freshness. When coupled with the IoT, these biosensors can contribute to data transmission via IoT networks, providing real-time insights into food storage and transportation conditions for stakeholders across each stage of the food supply chain, facilitating proactive decision-making practices. The technologies of combining biosensors with IoT could leverage artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance food safety, quality,
