A highly sensitive and selective colorimetric test using an organic compound, namely 2-acetylpyrrole thiosemicarbazone (APT), for the efficient recognition of Cu2+ ions in an aqueous medium has been successfully developed. The optimization of APT in acting as a colorimetric chemosensor was studied u...
