“…Previously, an uniform illumination imaging system (UIIS) integrated with a portable scanner was reported that, allows the detection of an analyte through Mahanalobis Distance calculations [ 25 ]. The UIIS system can capture images of 96 well plates in 600 dpi resolution and operate at a wide temperature range, making it effective for spot experimentations in fields.…”

“…The first part of this endeavor depicts the choice of material through UV-Vis Spectroscopy. Furthermore, after establishing chemosensor selectivity and specificity towards Cr (VI), UIIS Scan 1.1, an advanced image array technology-based field-portable high-throughput sensory system, was [ 25 ] exploited towards a simple, rapid and on-site analysis of Cr(VI). The tailored system has been upgraded and trained with an image-processing algorithm.…”

Due to the increase in urbanization and industrialization, the load of toxicants in the environment is alarming. The most common toxicants, including heavy metals and metalloids such as hexavalent Chromium, have severe pathophysiological impacts on humans and other aquatic biotas. Therefore, developing a portable rapid detection device for such toxicants in the aquatic environment is necessary. This work portrays the development of a field-portable image analysis device coupled with 3,3’,5,5’-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) as a sensing probe for chromium (VI) detection in the aquatic ecosystem. Sensor parameters, such as reagent concentration, reaction time, etc., were optimized for the sensor development and validation using a commercial UV-Vis spectrophotometer. The chemoreceptor integrated with a uniform illumination imaging system (UIIS) revealed the system’s applicability toward Cr(VI) detection. The calibration curve using the R-value of image parameters allows Cr(VI) detection in the linear range of 25 to 600 ppb, which covers the prescribed permissible limit by various regulatory authorities. Furthermore, the adjusted R2 = 0.992 of the linear fit and correlation coefficients of 0.99018 against the spectrophotometric method signifies the suitability of the developed system. This TMB-coupled field-portable sensing system is the first-ever reported image analysis-based technology for detecting a wide range of Cr(VI) in aquatic ecosystems to our knowledge.
