By mimicking the mammalian senses of taste and smell, artificial arrays of cross-reactive
receptors have found use in a variety of sensing applications. Pattern recognition algorithms …

Dogs are increasingly used in a wide range of detection tasks including explosives,
narcotics, medical, and wildlife detection. Research on detection dog performance is …

Three new electron‐rich metal–organic frameworks (MOF‐1–MOF‐3) have been
synthesized by employing ligands bearing aromatic tags. The key role of the chosen …

Detection of trace amounts of explosive materials is significantly important for security
concerns and pollution control. Four multicomponent metal–organic frameworks (MOFs‐12 …

In this paper, we report on the preparation of novel cross-reactive optical microsensors for
high-speed detection of low-level explosives and explosives-like vapors. Porous silica …

The advent of miniaturized, fiber-based, Raman spectrometers provides a clear path for the
wide implementation of surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) in analytical chemistry …

Chemical vapors originating from the explosive charge within landmines and unexploded
ordnance (UXO) form a chemical" signature" unique to these devices. The fact that canines …

This timely book covers the most recent developments in the chemical detection of
explosives in a variety of environments. Beginning with a broad view of the need for and the …

A series of chemoselective polymers had been designed and synthesized to enhance the
sorption properties of polymer coated chemical sensors for polynitroaromatic analytes. To …
