“…A comparison of the characteristics of the presently developed sensor with that of some of the reported sensors is presented in Table 5. An examination of the Table reveals that the proposed sensor is superior in terms of working concentration range [5-8, 10, 12, 15, 16], slope [5-8, 14, 15], life time [5,7,8,10,12] and pH range [5-8, 12, 14, 16]. In addition, the developed sensor can be used in the determination of Ni (II) in real samples -wastewater from electroplating plants and chocolates.…”
