Smart materials that can undergo changes in color upon the detection of amines have the potential to provide information on the freshness of fish and meat. To engineer a material that undergoes a change in color upon exposure to biogenic amines, succinic anhydride functional groups - which are deprotonated in the presence of amines - are grafted onto a biopolymer poly(lactic acid) backbone. This material is then blended with a pH sensitive dye, yielding a material that shows a highly specific response to amines. In this system, the reaction between SAh and amines protonates the dye and leads to an irreversible change in color in the indicators. The resulting change in color was recorded and monitored with standardized photos and UV-Vis spectroscopy. Initially, indicators of different degrees of SAh (from 5 wt% to 45 wt%) grafted onto PLA were exposed to the vapours from a 400 ppm amine solution. The samples with higher degrees of grafting underwent the most visible changes in color. A more detailed study of the effect of temperature and amine concentration was performed on indicators with 30 wt% SAh. The limits of detection, half-time and kinetics of the response are also presented. Higher temperatures and concentrations were found to increase the degree of the color change while decreasing the half-time of the response of the indicators. This work shows potential opportunities for the development of simple real-time amine indicators.
