in the present study, we investigate the potentiometric behavior of cu2+ carbon paste electrodes based on two mercapto compounds 2-ethylmino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (eamt) and 2-acetylamino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (aamt) self-assembled on gold nano-paricle (gnp) as ionophore. then, the results obtained from the modified electrodes are compared. the self-assembled ionophores exhibit a ...
