the neuropad test a Visual Indicator test for human diabetic neuropathy
Diabetologia, 2008Co-Authors: Cristian Quattrini, Maria Jeziorska, Mitra Tavakoli, P Begum, Andrew J M Boulton, Rayaz A MalikAbstract:Aims/hypothesis The commercially available Neuropad test was developed as a simple Visual Indicator test to evaluate diabetic neuropathy. It uses a colour change to define the integrity of skin sympathetic cholinergic innervation. We compared the results of Neuropad assessment in the foot with established measures of somatic and autonomic neuropathy.

chitosan corn starch blend films with extract from brassica oleraceae red cabbage as a Visual Indicator of fish deterioration
Lwt - Food Science and Technology, 2015Co-Authors: Mayra Cristina Silvapereira, Jose Augusto Teixeira, Valdir Aniceto Pereirajunior, Ricardo StefaniAbstract:Abstract Chitosan and Starch are polymers that can be obtained from renewable sources, with good film-forming properties and many applications in food industry, such as active and smart-packaging, which can monitor and inform consumers about food conditions in real-time. Hence, we report here a system for pH monitoring based on Chitosan, Corn Starch and red cabbage extract, all inexpensively obtained from renewable sources. The system was produced from medium molecular weight Chitosan, Corn–Starch and phytochemical extract from Brassica oleracea var. capitata (Red Cabbage). TG-DSC, FT-IR, Water Vapour Transmission Rate, as well as light microscopy were used to characterize the system. The colour variation after activation in different pH range was measured with the CIELab methodology. In order to validate the use of this system as a fish spoilage detection sensor, application tests were conducted with fish fillets. The results show that the system has good optical and morphological properties and is very sensitive to pH variations. During the application test, the system Visually indicated pH changes. Thus, the system shows a clear response to pH variation of the samples. Therefore, it has potential to be used as a Visual Indicator of the storage and consumption conditions of food.
