Novel Specimen Collection, Storage, and Analysis

Abstract

This project developed a new way to collect and retain chemical and biological specimens from solid surfaces, liquid solutions or gas streams. The method uses ionic liquids as a selective and stable mobile phase. The ionic liquid itself is contained in a high surface area applicator, such as a swab or gel. The objective of this project is to develop specimen collection devices (swabs) that are selective and very stable.
