Dr. Juncker Develops $1 Heavy Metals Detection Test
Dr. David Juncker and his research team are developing an innovative test to detect heavy metal contamination in water.
The point-of-use test uses a flow through system to detect high levels of Cadmium, Zinc, Lead, and Mercury in water samples. The test then displays results using a very simple colour change.
Due to the materials used in this project, each test kit can cost as little as $1 and will allow communities to perform continual monitoring overtime.
