Mercury ion can be detected by measuring surface plasmon resonance signal with a thin crosslinked chitosan layer deposited on a gold film. The crosslinked chitosan is synthesized by homogeneous reaction of medium molecular weight chitosan in aqueous acetic acid solution with glutaraldehyde as crossl...
