摘要: A general health hazard from explosive toxicity exists due to poor storage facilities for explosives and contamination of soil water with byproducts manufacture. To provide an effective method monitoring contamination, the Naval Research Laboratory's fiber-optic biosensor was adapted detection small molecules such as explosives. competitive immunoassay developed most widely used explosive, trinitrotoluene (TNT). Trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid (TNB), analog TNT, labeled a fluorophore analyte competitor. solution containing 7.5 ng/mL sulfoindocyanine 5-ethyl-enediamine-labeled TNB (Cy5-EDA-TNB) exposed antibody-coated optical fiber, generating specific signal above background that corresponds 100% or reference signal. Inhibition proportional TNT concentration in sample. Detection sensitivities 10 (8 ppb) buffer were achieved. Tests on river, harbor, bilge samples spiked showed results similar tests laboratory (buffer matrix) samples. determine possible interferences, several structural analogs ofTNT tested.
