“…Competition in food & beverage packaging sector is of continuing concern, therefore innovation is crucial. Over the past decade active 1 and intelligent 2 food packaging become a real answer to longer shelf life (Mohammadi et al, 2019;Kaewklin et al, 2018) and long distance transportation (Galstyan et al, 2018;Park et al, 2015;Koutsoumanis et al, 2015;Yam et al, 2005;Pavelková, 2013;Manthou, & Vlachopoulou, 2001;Nopwinyuwong, Trevanich, & Suppakul, 2010;Smits et al, 2012;O'Grady, & Kerry, 2008) vs traditional food packaging.…”

Although, the current market of food packaging produced with engineered nanoparticles is increasing, concern over toxicity due to their possible migration into foodstuff affects consumer acceptance which has been recognized as a key factor to successfully negotiate market opportunities. Data of science have shown the possibility of engineered nanoparticles (i.e., metal(oxide)) migration from packaging into foodstuff, nevertheless in most of the studies, the migration was in compliance with overall migration limits, and specific migration limits imposed by EU normative and U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). TiO2 is authorized as food color additive (E 171) by the U.S. FDA and European Commission (EFSA) with the stipulation that the additive should not to exceed 1% w/w, and without the need to include it on the ingredient label. More than that the grade used in food does not have any particle size specifications. In this peculiar case, data of science revealed that it may contain particles in the nanoscale, and nano-form of TiO2 is not approved as additive for food. In the light of the above mentioned, TiO2 remain a critical challenges in food industry. In April 2019, French Government announced the suspension of the placing on the market of foodstuffs containing titanium dioxide (TiO2, E 171) starting from January 2020 to December 2020. The French ban does not apply to non-food products such as medications, cosmetics and toothpastes. TiO2 remains authorized in other Member States of the EU. In this context, the aim of this research was that to evaluate thin films based on the αchitosan (CS)/titanium dioxide (TiO2) food grade nano-and micro-sized in terms of (i) migration according to European Normative 1130-1:2004, (iii) cytotoxicity and (iii) antioxidant activity by means of DPPH tests to define if they can be used as active films for foodstuff. As far as we know, this is the first research evaluating and quantifying the migration behavior of α-chitosan/titanium dioxide food grade micro-and nano-sized complexes. The resulting bioinorganic material exhibited a high free-radical scavenging against 1,1-Diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). The average percentage inhibition of the CS/Metal complex of nano-sized revealed a maximum value of 41.51 % as compared to that of the CS/Metal complex micro-sized, which achieved a value of 27.13%. This shows that, chitosan complexed with titanium dioxide nano-sized is a better radical scavenger than the chitosan complexed with titanium dioxide microsized, which it's explained by the decrease of particle size and resulting increasing surface area. With regard to the specific migration tests, which were quantified using acid digestion followed by inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) detection of titanium, the results revealed that titanium can migrated from chitosan matrix after incubation in different food simulants over 10 days at 40 oC or 10 days at 5 oC. The amount of titanium migration is observed as increasing with particle size. The smaller the pa...

“…Although sensors can achieve commercial standards, presented smart RFID labels with the one-hour interval between the measurements on 150 mAh has an expected lifetime of only 57 days, which can't satisfy the requirement for mass scale usage. Another similar smart label based on flexible PCB (Printed Circuit Board) technology and self-created sensors is presented in [19]. As the presented prototype doesn't include internal storage, the expected battery life is not considered.…”

In the modern world different products and goods are available throughout the world thanks to the complex supply chain system. Often products are transported on long journeys with different transportation systems where products can be damaged or spoiled. Smart Sticker is a concept for product environmental condition monitoring that can resolve some problems in the supply chain. Smart Sticker will record product environmental data in the supply chain and enable producer/consumer product monitoring. Because of ultra-low power design, Smart Sticker component selection must satisfy ultra-low power specifications, besides standard accuracy, and real-time implementation. In this paper we give an overview of the necessary measured environmental parameters and the selection of sensors with emphasis on low power design. We provided a model for the calculation of the maximum operating time, which is applied for the two Smart Sticker instances with significantly different energy consumptions. In the worst-case scenario operation time is 198 days which can be increased with a higher capacity battery

“…Bacterial growth on meats and fish typically results in release of nitrogen and sulfur containing compound, accompanied by strong and foul smell. Smits et al (2012) used smart radiofrequency labels with sensors enabling measurement of temperature, humidity and the presence of volatile amine compounds. The labels were made by means of high quality screen printing on low cost foils using lamination technologies.…”

“…At $99 to $300 apiece (Madan and Reddy, 2012), motes are currently too costly for many of the applications its inventors envisioned, such as extensive use in agriculture. One idea calls for wireless sensors that you "peel, stick and forget" (Smits et al 2012). The radio frequency identifi-cation (RFID) tag industry possibly has reached a cost as low as about $0.20 per tag and seeks to reach in a decade, the price of $0.05 per tag for inventory tracking purposes (Homs et al, 2004).…”

The world's population is expected to double by 2050; world food supply is unlikely to double by doubling the area under cultivation or by doubling the availability of water. There are other challenges too, such as decline in the number of farms and a decline in the number of agriculture workforce. Climate change is expected to further aggravate the existing situation. Therefore, for the humanity to survive agriculture has to become smart -one way is by integrating Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) in agriculture. In this paper, we will present the application of WSN in agriculture and discuss different types of sensors, different types of WSN and their application in 13 different types of traditional agriculture. We identify the type of agriculture most suited for WSN in terms of applications. We will also review some recent applications of WSN in agriculture; identify challenges and present possible future directions.
