Abstract:This thesis deals with two parts of development of novel sensors based on cellulose substrate platform. The first part is the development of fluorescence sensors and adsorbents for metal ions using bacterial cellulose as the platform. The second part is the development of colorimetric sensors for smartphone detection of oil marker using filter paper as the platform. In the first part, bacterial cellulose (BC) has several advantageous properties over plant cellulose such as high purity, high surface area, high … Show more
