Cost-Effective and Selective Fluorescent Chemosensor (Pyr-NH@SiO<sub>2</sub> NPs) for Mercury Detection in Seawater

Cost-Effective and Selective Fluorescent Chemosensor (Pyr-NH@SiO<sub>2</sub> NPs) for Mercury Detection in Seawater

The release of mercury into the environment has adverse effects on humans and aquatic species, even at very low concentrations. Pyrene and its derivatives have interesting fluorescence properties that can be utilized for mercury (Hg<sup>2+</sup>) ion sensing. Herein, we reported the high...
