The Food Fresh sensor provides a comprehensive solution to the detection of incipient food spoilage, being highly sensitive to gaseous decay products of fruit, vegetables, milk and milk products, fish and meat.
The sensor is of the two-electrode type – compact, fast responding, low cost, and consumes no power. It ideally lends itself to a traffic light classification whereby green would be all clear, yellow a warning of incipient spoilage, and red a confirmation that spoilage has occurred, and could, for example, be incorporated directly into a refrigerator or otherwise in a free standing device placed within it.
