✍️ Russian researchers have developed an ultra-sensitive sensor to detect carbosulfan, a toxic pesticide, in food, with potential applications in the pharmaceutical and food industries.
👉 The sensor is ten times more sensitive to carbosulfan than existing analogs.
👉 It can detect the presence of carbosulfan at concentrations ten times lower than what existing devices can achieve.
👉 The sensor has potential applications in the pharmaceutical and food industries, as well as in branches of Rospotrebnadzor, Russia's consumer rights and health watchdog.
👉 The sensor consists of a flexible plastic substrate with a conductive pattern made from laser-reduced graphene oxide with silver nanoparticles.
