We report herein the selective array-based detection of 30 persistent organic pollutants via cyclodextrin-promoted energy transfer. The use of three fluorophores enabled the development of an array that classified 30 analytes with 100% accuracy and identified unknown analytes with 96% accuracy, as well as identifying 92% of analytes in urine. Reported herein is the selective detection of 30 different persistent organic pollutants using cyclodextrin-promoted non-covalent energy transfer for array-based detection.
