Determination of Pb(II) and Cr(VI) using gold nanoparticles and ionophore-modified screen printed electrode

In this research, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was prepared and used as modifier for disposable screen printed electrodes (SPE). The AuNPs was characterized by different spectroscopic techniques; prior to application on surface of the electrode to increase the sensitivity of the electrode. The SPE...
