A highly sensitive and selective colorimetric assay for the dual detection of Hg2+ and As3+ using gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) conjugated with d-penicillamine (DPL) was developed.
A simple strategy for colorimetric detection of OPPs with P–S bonds was proposed, requiring only the addition of analyte into the HA–Tyr–AuNP solution.
In this study, a colorimetric probe was developed based on malonamide dithiocarbamate functionalized gold nanoparticles (MA–DTC–Au NPs) for the simultaneous colorimetric detection of Cu2+ and Hg2+ ions.
