Highly selective molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) based sensor for fruit maturity determination
Fruit maturity can be determined using artificial olfactory equipment such as electronic nose system. However, the electronic nose system performance is limited due to several issues on existing gas sensor capability such as low selectivity and high temperature operation. An alternative is to use mo...

Fruit maturity can be determined using artificial olfactory equipment such as electronic nose system.
