“…Thus, there is an increasing demand for the development of analytical procedures, preferably simple, sensitive, and selective ones to broaden the horizon of the applicability of iridium and its complexes. Sophisticated techniques such as NAA (Miura et al, 2020), spectrofluorimetric (Druskovic et al, 2004), AAS (Ingo et al, 2008), voltammetry (Locatelli, 2013), atomic emission and flame emission spectrometry (Jackson and Qiao, 1992), ICP-OES (Zhang and Tian, 2015), ICP-MS (Yi and Masuda, 1996), sequential flow injection analysis (Khomutova et al, 2013), imprinted polymerbased method (Sid Kalal et al, 2013), and individual catalytic method (Kawamura et al, 2011) have been employed for the purpose. However, the wider application of these techniques is restricted by several factors such as instrumentation costs, technical know-how, and maintenance issues.…”
