Scientists from Disruptive & Sustainable Technologies for Agricultural Precision (DiSTAP), an Interdisciplinary Research Group (IRG) at the Singapore-MIT Alliance for Research and Technology (SMART), MIT's research enterprise in Singapore, have engineered a novel type of plant nanobionic optical sensor that can detect and monitor, in real-time, levels of the highly toxic heavy metal arsenic in the belowground environment.| AZoSensors
This study presents a highly sensitive optical fiber sensor for arsenic detection in water, achieving a remarkable 0.09 ppb detection limit with rapid response.| AZoSensors
