General Idea

The idea of the meat monitor is to detect whether meat spoils. The design is not necessarily specific to meat rotting, but can also used for cheese, milk or other food. The only meat specific parts are the sensoring parts, e.g., sensing putrescine and cadaverine, produced by E.coli within the meat.
