DDT TO DETECT ITS PRESENCE)

TYPES OF BIOSENSORS
DDE(DichloroDiphenylEthylene)
This reaction mechanism can also be explored for
isolating enzymes to detect DDT in a water sample.
Other reactions of DDT that produce HCl were observed but it
is difficult to measure its presence in water with these as the
reactions take place in extreme conditions owing to the
stability of DDT. But having estimated a measure of the order
of reactions, we can now proceed towards developing a
transducer circuit that is capable of detecting signals of such
low levels.
