A new acoustic wave sensor capable of detecting and quantifying lead is presented, and fully characterized in terms of sensitivity, selectivity, and linear calibration range. The sensor was used to quantify lead absorption by pig stratum corneum and to follow in real time, both the absorption and desorption of lead by the skin. Values of lead absorption of 29.6 mg Pb2+/g of stratum corneum were obtained. Lead i...
