“…Therefore, it is significant to develop a high-performance system for the detection of iron and its ions in different media . Various analytical techniques such as atomic absorption spectroscopy, electrochemical analysis methods, inductively coupled plasma atomic emission, atomic fluorescence spectrometry, UV–vis spectroscopy, high-pressure ion chromatography, and X-ray spectrometry have been applied for the detection of iron ions. Nonetheless, most of these techniques have certain disadvantages, such as expensive equipment needed, vulnerability to common interference, long time consumption, the use of toxic organic reagents, and low sensitivity, which limit their practical application. , However, compared with the above mentioned techniques, fluorescence spectrometry has been considered to be a rapid, simple, sensitive, and selective technique for metal ion detection .…”
