Abstract
A carrier with a reagent selected to detect a contaminant and provide an alert is provided on a media in the environment of a consumable containing the contaminant and at a temperature below the dew point of the environment, which causes condensation of the media and allows for detection and alert of the contaminant.
Claims15
A device for detecting a contaminant in an environment, comprising:
- a reagent selected to react to the contaminant and configured to provide an alert upon reaction with the contaminant;
- and
- an absorbent media including the reagent and a carrier containing water, the carrier capable of a temperature below the dew point of the environment, the absorbent media configured to absorb condensation from the environment;
- wherein the device may be provided below the dew point of the environment to produce the alert in the presence of contaminant.
1 more element
A device for detecting a contaminant, comprising:
- a container capable of at least partial enclosure to create a test target environment;
- an absorbent media positioned to functionally communicate with the test target environment;
- and
- a reagent selected to react to the contaminant, positioned on the absorbent media;
- wherein a test target with a contaminant may be placed in the container, the absorbent media may functionally communicate with the test target environment, and the reagent may react with the contaminant.

capable of being provided with a reagent temperature less than the test target
A method for detecting a contaminant, comprising:
- creating an at least partially enclosure test environment;
- positioning a reagent for exposure with the test environment, the reagent selected for its ability for a reaction to the contaminant;
- condensing moisture from the test environment to expose the reagent to the moisture.
- detecting the reaction to the contaminant;
- and
- providing a first alert after detecting the reaction.
