Immobilised reagents for optical heavy metal ions sensing
Many ligands such as 1-nitroso-2-naphthol (NN), 4-(2-pyridylazo)resorcinol (PAR), 2,4-dinitrosoresorcinol (DNR) and 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) have been investigated in the development of optical sensors for heavy metal ions found in aquatic environments which include Co2+, Cu2+, Ni2+, Fe3+, Cd2+, Zn2+, Pb2+ and Read More …
