BIOPTICAS: Optical biosensing techniques for monitoring organic pollutants in the aquatic environment
The BIOPTICAS project aims to develop optically-based analytical techniques for the detection and measurement of low concentrations of organic pollutants in the aquatic environment. Two basic types of measurement systems are being developed. Low cost, fast, and highly sensitive immunoassay-based assay kits for use by water monitoring authorities for pesticide-level monitoring and, thin film and integrated optical-based technologies that provide opportunities to develop semi- or fully automated sensing systems for pollution monitoring. Although these systems are directed primarily towards pesticide detection, it is foreseen that far wider applications for diagnostics and monitoring can be addressed by the technologies developed by this project.

Abstract
The BIOPTICAS project aims to develop optically-based analytical techniques for the detection and measurement of low concentrations of organic pollutants in the aquatic environment. Two basic types of measurement systems are being developed. Low cost, fast, and highly sensitive immunoassay-based assay kits for use by water monitoring authorities for pesticide-level monitoring and, thin film and integrated optical-based technologies that provide opportunities to develop semi- or fully automated sensing systems for pollution monitoring. Although these systems are directed primarily towards pesticide detection, it is foreseen that far wider applications for diagnostics and monitoring can be addressed by the technologies developed by this project.
