The present invention includes a method and sensor that is easy to assemble and can operate to effectively detect an air borne or exogenously introduced analyte. In one embodiment, the assembled sensor includes a top cap capable of receiving a first electrolyte and a bottom cap capable of receiving a second electrolyte. The assembled sensor also includes a flexible boot that holds together the top cap, the bottom cap and a membrane. The membrane is located between the first electrolyte and the second electrolyte and enables an electrical device to detect an analyte (e.g., hazardous chemical) which originally entered the sensor through a passage in the top cap and interacted with the membrane.
