Colorimetric detection of magnesium (II) ions using tryptophan functionalized gold nanoparticles
Abstract The functional nanoparticles with specific molecular probe appear to be a promising approach for developing colorimetric nanosensor. In this work, we have synthesized tryptophan capped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and used to establish colorimetric detection of magnesium (Mg2+). The colorimet...
