Abstract
We report the first contained portable field fluorometer using a smartphone and a 3D printed sample holder. The white optical source used for camera and torch applications is filtered to enable blue excitation of a customised dye which fluoresces green as a function of pH. The green intensity is measured using an RGB app. Field measurements of water pH around Sydney are compared with laboratory results.
