TitlePaper strip detector for detection of 2,4,6-TNP/Picric acid from water, soil and explosives
Knowhow is available fordevelop a detection kit for trace as well as bulk detection of 2,4,6-TNP
SummaryA novel chromen-2-one derivative is coated on polymeric membrane. The paper strip is then exposed to 2,4,6-TNP, and dissolved in acetonitrile. If TNP is present, the color changes from light yellow to green.
AdvantagesAdvantages: 1. Selectivity for sensing 2,4,6-TNP over other nitroaromatic explosives 2. Visual/naked eye detection by colorimetric technique 3. Low detection limit (micromolar range) 4. Compatibility with membrane, cloth, paper 5. Instant detection 6. Simple sample preparation method
