Highly sensitive [Ru(bpy)3]2+/Nafion® modified indium tin oxide-based sensor for heavy metal detection

Indium tin oxide-coated glass substrates were modified with tris (2,2′-bipyridyl) ruthenium (II) dichloride hexahydrate [Ru(bpy)3]2+/Nafion® solution via dip-coating. The Nafion®—[Ru(bpy)3]2+ ratio was varied to optimize the sensitivity of the modified electrodes in detecting lead (Pb2+) and cadmium...
