Abstract
- Abstract: A new optical sensor for mercury(II) ions is developed based on immobilization of 4-(2-pyridylazo)-resorcinol (PAR) on a triacetylcellulose membrane. Chemical binding of Hg2+ ions in solution with a PAR immobilized on the triacetylcellulose surface could be monitored spectrophotometrically at 525nm. The optode shows excellent response over a wide concentration range of 5–3360μM Hg(II) with a limit of detection of 1.5μM Hg(II). The influence of factors responsible for the improved sensitivity of the sensor were studied and identified. The response time of the optode was 20min for a stable solution, and was 15min for a stirrer solution. The influence of potential interfering ions on the determination of 5×10−5 M Hg(II) was studied. The sensor was applied for determination of Hg(II) in water samples. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
