A Photoluminescence-Based Field Method for Detection of Traces of Explosives

A Photoluminescence-Based Field Method for Detection of Traces of Explosives

We report a photoluminescence-based field method for detecting traces of explosives. In its standard version, the method utilizes a commercially available color spot test kit for treating explosive traces on filter paper after swabbing. The colored products are fluorescent under illumination with a...
