Periodic Reporting for period 2 - PHOTONFOOD (FLEXIBLE MID-INFRARED PHOTONIC SOLUTIONS FOR RAPID FARM-TO-FORK SENSING OF FOOD CONTAMINANTS)

Analytical techniques for the measurements of chemical and microbial contaminations along the food chain require detection levels in the ppb range. A direct measurement of contaminants at these concentrations in a food matrix is not possible by any photonics principle...
