The grave health and environmental consequences of water pollution demand new tools, including new sensing technologies, for the immediate detection of contaminants in situ. Herein, we report the integration of metal-organic cages or polyhedra (MOCs/MOPs) within a nanophotonic sensor for the rapid, direct, and real-time detection of small (<500 Da) pollutant molecules in water.

Recent advances on the environmental determinants of Kawasaki Disease have pointed to the important role of the atmospheric transport of a still unknown agent potentially triggering the disease. The hypothesis arose from an innovative methodology combining expertise in climate dynamics, the analysis of ocean and atmosphere data, the use of dispersion models and the search for biological agents in air samples.
