Toxin Tracker

• ISTF Project # 04-1113 was developed in response to the 2004-2005 Internet Science and Technology Fair.
• National Critical Technology (NCT): Living Systems
• Sub-category: Food Safety Assurance
• Specific Technology Application: Drug and Residue Detection
• This website focuses on the toxin tracker, a spoon that can be used to detect harmful contamination in foods, as well as the contaminations that the toxin tracker will detect.

• Our problem is with food contamination.  It is an issue for people who travel to places where sanitation is not good. Our solution is to create a spoon that will give a reading of any harmful bacteria or toxin in a food.  This spoon is discreet enough to use anywhere.
