In vitro monitoring of natural thorium in urine using fluorimeter

A new fluorescent sensor for determination of thorium by thin film of 2-(acetyloxy)-N-(5-nitro-2-thiazolyl)-benzamide embedded in sol–gel matrix

“…Further investigation was carried out by comparing analytical parameters of the present sensor with selected developed optical sensors (see Table 3). 10,11,[50][51][52][53] It is clear from Table 3 that the present sensor exhibits remarkable advantages with satisfactory results, such as wider linear range and lower detection limit. However, despite the reported wider linear range and lower detection limit, remarkable interferences were recorded for Al 3+ and La 3+ .…”

“…[6][7][8][9] Various uorescent sensors for Th(IV) have been designed by using different uorophores. 10,11 Fluorescent organic materials have potential applications in modern technologies, such as chemical and biological sensors, 12,13 photocatalysts, 14 functional materials for optics [15][16][17] and optoelectronics. 18 The optical properties of organic materials are still difficult to predict because correlation with molecular structures, numerous intermolecular interactions, and particle size and shape, are not yet fully understood.…”
