Abstract
Understanding the amount of exposure individuals have had to common chemical pollutants critically requires the ability to detect those compounds in a simple, sensitive, and specific manner. Doing so using label-free biosensor technology has proven challenging, however, given the small molecular weight of many pollutants of interest. To address this issue, we report the development of a pollutant microarray based on the label-free arrayed imaging reflectometry (AIR) detection platform. The sensor is able to detect three common environmental contaminants (benzo[a]pyrene, bisphenol A, and acrolein) in human serum via a competitive binding scheme.
