Cover Story: A green and environmentally sustainable approach valorizes orange peel waste (OPE) as a resourceful material to obtain stabilized spherical gold nanoparticles (AuNPs@OPE) showing affinity and selectivity towards Pb ions. In this application, the aggregation process is favored, and the nanoparticles form clusters due to the interactions between Pb ions and the carboxyl/hydroxyl groups on the surface of the AuNPs@OPE. The increase in the size of the nanostructures is accompanied by a specific spectral change and a color variation of the AuNPs@OPE from pink to violet. The application of this colorimetric sensor for the analysis of Pb ions in natural water samples indicates the reliability of using the proposed method with real samples. View this paper
