Patent NZ-334955-A (NZ)
Title: Food contamination detector for use with a container of a food product which produces juices comprising an indicator printed on a substrate
Inventor: WOODAMAN JAMES G
IPC: G06K19/06
Filed: 1997-09-24
Abstract: The food contamination detector, for use with a container adapted for containing a food product, which produces juices, comprises: a) a first coded indicia coded to identify a food product by an optical  code reader; b) a second coded indicia coded to identify contaminated food by an optical reader; c) an indicator printed onto a substrate wherein the indicator is in communication with the juices from the food product and d) means for changing the colour of the indicator when a toxin is present in the juices from the food product. The change in the colour of the indicator causes the first coded indicia to be unreadable by the optical reader and causes the second coded indicia to become readable by the optical reader. The means for changing the colour of the indicator can comprise a labelled antibody attached to a substrate where the antibody can dissociate from the substrate in the presence of the toxin. The indicator can be a first antibody attached to a transparent substrate and a solution in contact with the first antibody attached to the substrate where the solution contains a labelled second antibody. The second antibody becomes bound to the substrate rendering the substrate opaque in the presence of a toxin in the juices from the food product. The change in the light reflectivity of the substrate renders the first coded indicia unreadable and the second coded indicia readable.
