We present a low-cost lab-on-a-smartphone (LOS) platform for rapid and in-situ monitoring of fecal indicator bacteria (FIB) such as Escherichia coli (E. coli) to examine the presence and concentration levels of fecal contamination in environmental waters. To realize the LOS, three main components, a...
