Micro-ring resonator-based biophotonic system for food analysis (BIOFOS)

Start date: Nov 1, 2013, End date: Oct 31, 2016,

Current methodologies for detection of food contamination based on heavy analytical tools cannot guarantee a safe and stable food supply. The reasons are the complexity, the long time-to-result (2-3 days) and the cost of these tools, which limit the number of samples that can be practically analyzed at food processing and storage sites. The need for screening tools that will be still reliable but ...
