<p> Nowadays, Volatile Organic Compounds (VOCs) are commonly found pollutants that have been proved present in a wide variety of everyday life situations. Though they are dangerous and present almost everywhere, VOCs are not efficiently detected. Usual detection devices are very unprecise or requires a very long exposure time. ~~We tried to address this problem by building~~ a biosensor, perfectly adapted to on-field measurements that ~~would~~ allow us to easily and rapidly quantify the amount of VOCs in the air. ~~This~~ biosensor relies on bioluminescence, a biochemical phenomenon that is commonly used in cell imaging. We are trying to develop a new application for bioluminescence that should allow us to create a biosensor of a new kind, entirely different from the existing devices. ~~We are also working with aeronautical engineers in order to develop a~~ drone ~~able~~ to safely contain our ~~bacteria~~,~~that will later be used~~ as a mobile detection platform. </p>
