Detecting Lead ions from drinking water is one of the important matters in all over the world. Some Lead ion sensors are currently released but they are expensive for people in need and some require trained users. People who live in these countries frequently cannot afford even modestly expensive tests. According to the World Health Organization, diagnostic devices for developing countries sholud be ASSURED: affordable, sensitive, specific, user-friendly, rapid and robust, equipment free and deliverable to end-users. In this study, we propose paper based sensor platforms kit by immobilizing colorimetric polydiacetylene having color changing property toward Lead ions specifically. This sensor will be easy to use, low-cost(below 1$ for single test), potable and requires no external equipment, reagents, power sources or trained users. |
