• Description:
  Wood smoke exposure poses significant health risks, particularly in occupations such as firefighting, where short-term exposure to high levels of pollutants is common. The biomonitoring of wood smoke-associated biomarkers is crucial for assessing human exposure. S-phenylmercapturic acid (S-PMA), a key metabolite of benzene, has been widely used as a reliable biomarker for this purpose. However, current S-PMA detection methods lack the speed, portability, and user-friendliness required for widespread, on-site applications. In this study, we propose a novel detection system that integrates mesoporous Pd@Pt nanoparticle-mediated lateral flow immunoassay (LFIA) with a 3D-printed smartphone-based reader for detecting S-PMA. Performance testing with S-PMA in phosphate-buffered saline and spiked urine samples yielded limits of detection of 0.5 ng/mL and 2.5 ng/mL, respectively. The use of mesoporous Pd@Pt nanoparticles as signal amplifiers for LFIA, along with the integration of a 3D-printed device for accurate image acquisition, significantly enhanced the system's sensitivity, achieving detection limits well below the threshold recommended by the American Conference of Governmental and Industrial Hygienists. With remarkable stability and reproducibility, our method provides a noninvasive, highly sensitive, rapid, portable, low-cost, and user-friendly solution for the on-site assessment of wood smoke exposure in occupational settings, laying the foundation for future innovations in real-time environmental exposure monitoring.
