Flexible Highly Sensitive Sensors of Calcium in Complex Media Developed at ITMO
ITMO researchers have suggested a new approach to developing flexible, portable sensors for detecting calcium ions in complex media, such as seawater and milk. At the core of the sensors is MXene, a 2D material that, thanks to its high conductivity to ions and electrons, made it possible to increase the sensors’ sensitivity while also simplifying their design. The chemists have already unveiled two prototypes on substrates of glass and plastic that can be used to measure calcium levels in water bodies, foods (e.g., milk), and in medical diagnostics. The results of this Russian Science Foundation-supported study were published in Small.
