A Highly Sensitive and Selective Fluorescent Probe Using MPA-InP/ZnS QDs for Detection of Trace Amounts of Cu<sup>2+</sup> in Water
Detection of copper (II) ions (Cu<sup>2+</sup>) in water is important for preventing them from entering the human body to preserve human health. Here, a highly sensitive and selective fluorescence probe that uses mercaptopropionic acid (MPA)-capped InP/ZnS quantum dots (MPA-InP/ZnS QDs)...
