Abstract
Environmental hazards typically are encountered in the gaseous phase; however, selective sensing modalities for identifying and quantitating compounds of interest in an inexpensive, pseudo-real-time format are severely lacking. Here, we present a novel proof-of-concept that combines an Air2Liquid sampler in conjunction with an oilin-water microfluidic assay for detection of organophosphates. We believe this proof-of-concept will enable development of a new platform technology for semivolatile detection that we have demonstrated to detect 50 pmoles (2 ppb) of neurotoxic organophosphates.
