“…Therefore, the development of highly sensitive and selective analytical methodology for the detection of trace levels of iodide is highly demanded and of great significance. Till date, several analytical methods have been reported for the determination of iodide, such as atomic absorption spectrometry [5], microfluidic flow injection [6], colorimetry [7,8], capillary electrophoresis [9], electrochemical analysis [10,11], chromatography [12,13], mass spectrometry [14,15] and so on. However, these methods still suffer from some intrinsic disadvantages, including tedious sample preparations, time-consuming operation and sophisticated instrumentation.…”
