1 to 100: creating an air quality index in Pittsburgh.

abstract：:A simple method was developed for the determination of Au(III) and Pt(IV) contents in aqueous samples after preconcentration. The method was based on the sorption of analytes as 2-amino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazol complexes onto graphene oxide and subsequent direct determination by wavelength dispersive X-ray fluoresc...
