Abstract
, which were evaluated using standard, analytical grade DBP; the limit of quantification was determined using different concentrations of DBP in DI water in comparison with gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) values. The proposed sensor was used to monitor the DBP concentrations in river water samples collected from various locations across South Korea. The quantitative data from the measurements in comparison with standard GC/MS values were then used to ascertain the human health risk posed by the daily consumption of these river waters.
