“…Ripening of climacteric fruits such as banana (Musa acuminata), tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), and mango (Mangifera indica) is typically triggered and regulated by the gaseous plant hormone ethylene (Seymour et al, 2013;Hu et al, 2019). As a gas, ethylene levels and subsequent signal transduction in plants can be regulated by changes in biosynthesis and gas diffusion rates (Abeles et al, 2012;Hartman et al, 2019).…”

“…And can they be altered by developmental and environmental signals? Currently, inadequate control over fruit ripening processes contributes to large amounts of food waste globally (Hu et al, 2019). One promising approach may therefore be to identify regulators of MaXB3 in the future, as increased control over MaXB3 levels could ultimately allow breeders, retailers, and consumers to delay ripening and increase the shelf life of our beloved fruits.…”

“…The most simple configurations are based on direct absorbance measurements using broadband thermal emittors, but these devices tend to lack the necessary selectivity and sensitivity for horticultural applications. Photoacoustic instruments based on laser diodes or quantum cascade lasers (QCLs) can attain good selectivity and limits of detection in the low ppb (V/V) range [2,8]. Such instruments are commercially available, but at a cost of at least € 20′000 [2].…”

The determination of ethylene with a field asymmetric ion mobility spectrometer, which can easily be constructed in-house, is described. The device makes use of a Krypton lamp for ionization. A rectangular pulse of 500 Vpp at 1 MHz was employed as separation waveform in the drift tube rather than the commonly used less efficient bisinusoidal waveform. The calibration curve for the range from 670 ppb(V/V) to 67 ppm(V/V) was found to be highly linear with a correlation coefficient of r = 0.9999. The limit of detection was determined as 200 ppb(V/V). The reproducibility was 4% (relative standard deviation). The device was found to be suitable for the determination of ethylene given off by fruit; 6 types of climacteric fruit were tested, namely apples, bananas, kiwi fruit, nectarines, pears and plums.

With high demands and rapid development of consumer electronics related to the Internet of Things, various methods have been developed to incorporate different indicators or sensors into packaging for inspecting the safety and quality of food products conveniently. Smart packaging technology is an effective method of monitoring the status of packaged food, thus reducing food waste and food‐borne related illnesses. Food quality can be directly detected from volatile compounds associated with food degradation and/or gas content of the modified atmosphere packaging. Flexible gas sensors based on organic/polymer functional materials have been widely explored to detect trace amounts of gases by exploiting their electrical or mechanical properties. This review first discusses the requirements of gas sensors and system integration for smart packaging. Then, the paper reviews recent advances and strategies of flexible organic/polymer‐based gas sensors and system integration for smart packaging applications. Finally, this review summarizes the challenges and opportunities of flexible gas sensors and system integration for smart packaging applications.
