The GSH stabilizer Au NPs in solution show immediate aggregation after addition of 1 mol/L NaCI aqueous solution containing Pb^2+ ions. The Pb^2+-induced aggregation in Au NP solution is monitored by both colorimetric response and UV-vis spectroscopy. A rather broad linear range (from 0.1 to 30 pmol/L) and low detection limit (0.1 pmol/L) are explored for Au NP sensors used for detection of Pb^2+ ions. Furthermore, the response of GSH-stabilized Au NPs toward Pb^2+ ions is specific compared with other possible interferants (Hg^2+, Mg^2+, Zn^2+, Ni^2+, Cu^2+, Co^2+, Ca^2+, Mn^2+, Cd^2+, and Ba^2+).展开更多

Ill this review, we summarize some most recent progresses in nanoseienee research and nanotechnology development in China. The topics we selected in this article include llano-fabrication, nanocatalysis, bioinspired nanoteehnology, green printing nanotechnology, nanoplasmonics, nanomedicine, nanomaterials and their applications, energy and environmental nanoteehnology, nano EHS (nanosafety), etc. Most of them have great potentials in applications or application-related key issues in future.展开更多
