Definitions

  • [001] Packaged foods may be exposed to various conditions and environments during transit through storage and display on the shelf. Fats in the food are subject to deterioration by rancidity that leads to the formation of objectionable odors and flavors.
  • Oxidative rancidity may occur when oxygen cleaves unsaturated fatty acids at the double bond, resulting in the release of volatile ketones and aldehydes.
  • Hydrolytic rancidity may result from moisture reacting with triglycerides to form fatty acids.
  • Microbial rancidity may be due to the enzymatic (e.g., lipases) breakdown of fatty acids by microorganisms. The degree of rancidifi cation is therefore dependent on the availability of oxygen and moisture within the package.
  • Efforts to reduce rancidity usually involve placing an oxygen scavenger or sensor in the package.
  • Conventional oxygen sensors typically rely on colorimetric or other visual detection by the consumer. For example, some conventional sensors fluoresce on exposure to oxygen. Such sensors, relying on visual detection, are limited to use with transparent food containers.
  • An example apparatus includes a first sheet, second sheet, and an adhesive attaching the first sheet to the second sheet.
  • the adhesive may be configured to have a first state when an oxygen level is below a threshold, and a second state when the oxygen level is above the threshold.
  • the adhesive may further be configured to de-bond, causing the first sheet and the second sheet to change in shape from their shape in the first state.
  • At least one of the first sheet or second sheet may have a preformed shape, wherein in the second state, the at least one of the first sheet or second sheet changes to the pre-formed shape.
  • the adhesive may include cleavable linkages which cleave upon exposure to reactive oxygen species.
  • the adhesive may further include a prodegradant sensitive to oxygen.

  • one of the first sheet or second sheet may be coupled to an interior surface of a third sheet, such as that of a container. In th e second state, the one of the first sheet or second sheet may create a deformation in the third sheet. The deformation of the third sheet may produce a perceptible tactile change in an exterior surface of the third sheet.
  • one of the first or second sheet may be oxygen permeable, allowing oxygen to reach the adhesive.
  • an apparatus may include a container having an interior surface and an exterior surface, and one or more indicators coupled to the interior surface of the container.
  • Each of the one or more indicators may further include a first sheet, a second sheet, and an adhesive attaching the first sheet to the second sheet.
  • the adhesive is configured to have a first state when an oxygen level is below a threshold, wherein the adhesive is configured to have a second state when the oxygen level is above the threshold.

  • the container may further include a defined area, wherein the one or more indicators are located within the defined area of the container.

  • the one of the first sheet or second sheet may create a perceptible tactile change in the exterior surface of the container indicative of the oxygen levels.
  • An example method for tactile rancidity indication includes monitoring an oxygen level within a container containing a food product using an indicator positioned on an interior surface of the container, and touching a portion of the container proximate to the indicator to assess freshness of the food product.
  • the method may further include touching the portion of the container proximate to the indicator comprises touching a corner of the container. Touching the portion of the container proximate to the indicator to assess freshness of the food product may include feeling for deformation of the container proximate to the indicator.
  • monitoring the oxygen level within the container may include using the indicator having an adiiesive positioned between two sheets, the adhesive configured to de-bond above a threshold oxygen level.
  • an apparatus may include a first sheet, a second sheet, and an adhesive attaching the first sheet to the second sheet.

Abstract

L'invention concerne des appareils et des procédés destinés à un indicateur de rancidité tactile. Un appareil donné à titre d'exemple comprend une première feuille, une seconde feuille et un adhésif fixant la première feuille à la seconde feuille. L'adhésif peut être conçu pour présenter un premier état lorsqu'un niveau d'oxygène est inférieur à un certain seuil et un second état lorsque le niveau d'oxygène est supérieur au seuil. Dans le second état, l'adhésif peut en outre être conçu pour se décoller, ce qui amène la première feuille et la seconde feuille à changer de forme depuis leur forme dans le premier état.
