Detection of Explosives Page 1 MARCH 1, 2003 / ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY 99 A With the
surge of international terrorism and the in- creased use of explosives in terrorist attacks, law …

Historically, measurements have been made by taking a sample and analyzing it for a single
analyte. When multiple analytes must be measured from a single sample, the sample …

The detection of explosives and related compounds is important in both forensic and
environmental applications. Luminescence-based methods have been widely used for …

Optical fibres provide a universal sensing platform as they are easily integrated with a
multitude of different sensing schemes. Such schemes enable the preparation of a multitude …

The paper presents analyses of current research projects connected with explosive material
sensors. Sensors are described assigned to X and γ radiation, optical radiation sensors, as …

In this article, we describe the preparation and application of microbeads that exhibit a “turn
on” fluorescence response within seconds of exposure to diethyl chlorophosphate (DCP) …

217 with acetic acid yields a trinuclear molybdenum complex that is stable and can be
stored indefinitely (13). Bino et al. now show that if this species is oxidized in aqueous …
