Title: Insert for prolonging the shelf life of packaged food and especially fruit and vegetables
Filed: 2011-05-24
Abstract: Live edible fungal mycelium supported on growing medium is placed inside the packaging of a non-fungal food. The mycelium respires to reduce the concentration of oxygen and increase the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere within the package. This in turn inhibits the rate of respiration of fruit, vegetables and undesirable microorganisms, keeping the product fresher for longer. Preferably the fungal mycelium is Flammulina Populicola or any other edible filamentous fungi that is able to cope with refrigeration temperatures of 2ÂºC. A capsule for prolonging the shelf-life of non-fungal food enclosed in packaging comprises live edible fungal mycelium supported in a growing medium and enclosed in a film that it permeable to oxygen and carbon dioxide. The film may be perforated with holes less than 0.3mm in diameter. The capsule is placed in gaseous communication with non-fungal food enclosed in packaging.

Title: Method and system for gas detection
Filed: 2011-12-05
Abstract: A gas sensor for determining a concentration of a predetermined gas in a measurement volume E comprises light source C and detector J to receive light passed through the measurement volume. During a first measurement period, the detector makes a first measurement of an amount of light received in at least one wavelength band absorbed by the gas. The first measurement is compared to a predetermined threshold value. If the threshold is crossed, during a second measurement period the detector makes a second measurement of an amount of light received in at least one wavelength band absorbed by the gas. Gas concentration is calculated using the first and/or second measurement. A sampling rate, the light intensity or emitting surface area of the light source may be varied between first and second measurement periods. A further embodiment specifies a wireless sensor and the second measurement using a greater amount of light than the first.
