Nanoparticles and compositions thereof are provided for detecting and/or preventing food spoilage. Methods of making the nanoparticles and compositions, and methods of using the nanoparticles and compositions, e.g. in food packaging, are also provided. The nanoparticles can have a hydrophobic core containing a hydrophobic active agent, e.g. a hydrophobic dye and/or an antimicrobial agent, for detecting and/or preventing food spoilage. The nanoparticles can also have a copolymer of a hydrophobic polymer repeat unit, e.g. styrene or lactic acid, and a pH responsive dendrimer repeat unit. The pH responsive dendrimer repeat unit can have a pH responsive amine core having a plurality of branched acrylate arms extending therefrom. The nanoparticles can be chemically stable at neutral pH, and then release the hydrophobic active agent at a pH range indicative of food spoilage. By releasing the hydrophobic dye and/or antimicrobial agent, the nanoparticles can detect and/or inhibit food spoilage.

The invention concerns new types of porous coordination polymers (MOF) and a method for their preparation. MOFs have been prepared through synthesis of salts of trivalent cations M.sup.3+, the source of which are aluminium, chromium, iron or yttrium salts, it is advantageous if of chlorides, nitrates or sulphates, with linkers carrying two or more phosphinic groups under presence of solvent. Linkers are phenylene-1,4-bis(R phosphinic acid) (PBPA) and biphenylene-4,4′-bis(R phosphinic acid) (BBPA). For the prepared MOFs, the structure has been tested using x-ray powder diffraction, specific surface and porousness which have been characterised through adsorption isotherm of nitrogen and further the stability of prepared MOFs has been determined using thermogravimetric analysis. All the prepared MOFs have been stable around 400° C. and have contained mesopores or micropores where hydrogen or CO.sub.2, for example, can be stored.
