We demonstrate the detection of dipicolinic acid, (DPA), a biomarker of bacterial spores for Bacillus anthracis, 2,4-Dinitrotoluene (DNT) and picric acid (PA) nitroaromatic hazardous chemicals on ultra-sensitive, reusable femtosecond laser textured Au nanostructures decorated with hierarchical AuNPs as a SERS

Increasing security needs require field-deployable, on-the-spot detection tools for the rapid and reliable identification of gunshot residue (GSR) and nitroaromatic explosive compounds. This manuscript presents a simple, all-solid-state, wearable fingertip sensor for the rapid on-site voltammetric screening of GSR and

The degradation efficiencies of isomeric mononitrotoluenes (2- and 4-NTs) and dinitrotoluenes (2,4-DNT and 2,6-DNT) by either individual bacterial strains (Bacillus cereus NDT4, Pseudomonas putida NDT1, Pseudomonas fluorescens NDT2, and Achromobacter sp. NDT3) or their mixture were compared in submerged batch

Polynitroaromatics are well-known to form anionic σ-complexes (Meisenheimer complexes). The formation of such complexes was assumed in the past to explain the blue color of solutions of 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT) and amines. However, this work shows that caution is warranted to

The bare deprotonated 2,4-dinitrotoluene [DNT-H](-) anion, formed by electrospray ionization and trapped in a Paul ion-trap, has been investigated by IR multiple photon dissociation (IRMPD) spectroscopy and quantum chemical calculations at the B3LYP∕6-311++G** level. IRMPD spectra were recorded in the
