  • Patent number: 11561175
    Abstract: A method for the detection of hydrocarbon contamination in a sample is disclosed. The method includes contacting a sample with a molecular probe. The molecular probe has a photoluminescence which is environmentally sensitive. The photoluminescence from the molecular probe is collected. The method includes determining whether the photoluminescence is indicative of a hydrocarbon contaminated sample. A test strip for the detection of hydrocarbon contamination in a sample is also disclosed. The test strip includes a molecular probe embedded in a substrate and/or immobilized to the substrate, the molecular probe having a photoluminescence which is environmentally sensitive to hydrocarbon contaminated sample.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 11333652
    Abstract: A method for the detection of adulterated gasoline in a sample is disclosed. The method includes contacting a sample with an immobilized molecular probe, the immobilized molecular probe having a photoluminescence which is environmentally sensitive; collecting the photoluminescence from the immobilized molecular probe; and determining whether the photoluminescence is indicative of adulterated gasoline. A test strip for the detection of adulterated gasoline in a sample is also disclosed, including an immobilized molecular probe embedded in a substrate and/or immobilized to the substrate, the immobilized molecular probe having photoluminescence which is environmentally sensitive to adulterated gasoline. The method and test strips are designed to be robust, portable, and within the capabilities of untrained personnel.

  • Publication number: 20210208070
    Abstract: A method for detection of an adulterated diesel fuel in a sample is disclosed. The method includes contacting a sample with a molecular probe, the molecular probe having a photoluminescence which is environmentally sensitive; collecting the photoluminescence from the molecular probe; and determining whether the photoluminescence is indicative of adulterated diesel fuel. A test strip for the detection of adulterated diesel fuel in a sample is disclosed, comprising a molecular probe embedded in a substrate and/or immobilized to the substrate, the molecular probe having a photoluminescence which is environmentally sensitive to adulterated diesel fuel. The method and test strips are designed to be robust, portable, and within the capabilities of untrained personnel.
