Onsite rapid detection of herbicide and herbicide residuals in environmental and biological specimens is important for agriculture, environment, food safety, and health care.1-2 Traditional method for herbicide detection requires expensive laboratory equipment and a long turn-round time.3-5 In this work, we developed a single-stripe microtiter plate smartphone colorimetric device for rapid and low-cost in-field test (Figure). This portable smartphone platform is capable of screening 8 samples in a microplate single-stripe. The device was validated with good sensitivity. Reliable linear relationship for detection were obtained comparing with microplate reader. This optosensing device were put into practical application for 2,4-D detection. Different concentration of 2,4-D from 80 ng/mL to 1 ng/mL were detected by the smartphone device, good linear relationship was obtained. The detection limit is down to 1 ng/mL which is lower than ELIASA reader. For real ground water sample and blood sample, it gives a good recovery rate and good linear relationship. It validated that the smartphone optical sensing platform is eligible for onsite rapid and low-cost detection of herbicide in practical samples for environmental evaluation and biological monitoring.
