A much simpler and cost-effective method for monitoring food fermentation by detecting biogenic amines generated as a by-product during food decomposition

About

Aggregation-induced emission (AIE) materials (AIEgens) creates new expectations and opportunities in the food testing field. Upon exposure to amine vapors, deprotonation occurs that converts the yellow-colored, non-emissive AIEgen to blue or red color, depending on the concentration of amine in the food package. Advantages - 2-stage colorimetric response corresponding to different concentration - Inexpensive material - Excellent photostability, high signal-to-noise ratio - High brightness, strong anti-photobleaching ability

Key Benefits

Detection of food spoilage is a major concern in food safety as large amounts of food are transported globally. A much simpler and more cost-effective method for monitoring food fermentation by detecting biogenic amines generated as a by-product during food decomposition.
