Research abstract
An immunochromatography device for measuring small amounts of analytes in liquid solution will be developed for detecting cotinine in urine. The device will be useful in measuring compliance with behavior modification programs where cessation of smoking is desired. Sensitivity levels will be in the low ppb range (ng/ml) so will be useful for detecting both passive smoking and active smoking.
