In this work, surface plasmon resonance (SPR) spectroscopy had been studied for detection of essential heavy metal ions with potential for toxicity: copper, zinc and manganese ions (Cu2+, Zn2+ and Mn2+). The sensitivity of SPR optical sensor had been enhanced by introducing a thin crosslinked chitos...
