title: Continuing issues with Lead: Recent Advances in Detection.
abstract: In the past Pb2+has been used in many industries, including gasoline, piping, toys, paints, and more. The use of lead has led to a natural increase of lead concentration in the environment especially in air and water. According to the U.S. CDC "no level of lead in blood is considered safe." Exposure to very low amounts of lead can cause several health complications including developmental and neurological disorders. Over the past several years an emphasis has been placed in developing systems that can detect lead at a very low concentration. A great deal of work has been accomplished in the development of Pb2+sensors that can not only detect but also quantify the amount and in some cases in the presence of other metal ions. Herein, we describe current regulations, mode of exposure and recent development of sensing techniques.
