Toward ultrasensitive and fast colorimetric detection of indoor formaldehyde across the visible region using cetyltrimethylammonium chloride-capped bone-shaped gold nanorods as “chromophores”
Keyword(s):
A colorimetric method for detecting formaldehyde was developed by coupling bone-shaped gold nanorods (AuNRs) with silver mirror reaction, which enables low detection limit, wide linear range and high visual resolution.
