Graphene/fluorescein dye-based sensor for detecting As(III) in drinking water

Abstract A complex of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and fluorescein (FL) dye nanoparticles of size between 50 and 100 nm has been prepared and its sensing performance for detection of As(III) in drinking water has been reported. When As(III) binds to the rGO–FL nanoparticles the relative quenching of...
