Congratulations, Steve!
In this work, we build a room-temp electronic nose using MINT-based chemiresistors. It is selective, fast, and works with low power. It distinguishes vapors like NH₃, NO₂, acetone, and even breath-relevant mixtures like acetone/IPA/EtOH!!
I smell a bright future for MINTs in sensing!

SWNTs are great for sensing as they are literally all surface, so they are very responsive. As a downside of their extreme sensitivity, SWNT sensors are typically not very selective. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/...
By making MINTs with the right design, the selectivity problem can be tackled.

Carbon Nanotube Chemical Sensors
Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) promise to advance a number of real-world technologies. Of these applications, they are particularly attractive for uses in chemical sensors for environmental and health monito...
