Superior Monitoring of Chemical Exposure Using Nanoconfinement Technology

Abstract

Military personnel are exposed to a broad range of potentially toxic compounds that can affect their health. These hazards are unpredictable because military service occurs in a wide array of uncontrolled environments. Therefore, a novel sorbent was developed that allows the fabrication of lightweight personal samplers that are both capable of sorbing an extremely wide range of organic chemical types and able to stabilize reactive compounds.
