title: A dye-doped optical sensor for the detection of biodiesel in diesel.
abstract: The ability to detect biodiesel at various concentrations in diesel is an important goal in several industries. A simple, solvatochromic dye-doped optical sensor is presented for quick and direct detection of 0.5 ppm-20% v/v FAME/biodiesel in diesel.
