Zusammenfassung: | Getting to the bottom of groundwater: The development of a reliable, portable, and simple‐to‐use device for detecting arsenic in groundwater is urgently needed in developing nations such as Bangladesh, where contaminated groundwater is at the root of a public health crisis. Toward this end, a highly sensitive platform utilizing surface‐enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS, see picture) is used to quantitatively detect arsenate in water down to 1 ppb. |
