Current methods for analysis of acrylamide in water are costly, time- and effort-intensive, and results are available only after the water has been distributed for use. We would like a faster, less labor-intensive, and accurate method that can give us results in real time.

• Limit of quantification of low single-digit ppb
• Minimal upfront and on-going costs - significantly cheaper than current methods (<$10 per test)

• Limit of quantification = WHO limit of 0.5 ppb
• Window of time ≤ 15 mins (Max) for testing
• Capability to integrate with Laboratory Information Management system
• In-line measurement capability
• Green chemistry (avoiding use of harmful chemicals in the testing process)
• Simple to use by plant personnel (similar to other water quality tests)
• Accuracy of 0.5 ppb
