A method for preparing modified ligands to detect multiple ions in a sample comprising: reacting a plurality of ligands with at least one organic compound to create modified ligands selective to multiple ions; treating the modified ligands with a polar solvent; depositing said modified ligands on a porous substrate; wherein the organic compound comprises at least one organic molecule backbone with one or more alcohol, carboxylic acid or amine groups, and the modified ligands are able to bind with targeted ions in the sample to form ion complexes with varying molecule weights and polarities, and the interactions between the formed ion complexes with the porous substrate results in the separation of the ion complexes enabling the detection of the targeted ions in the sample, through the use of suitable light source and imaging device or spectrometer.
A method for preparing modified ligands for detecting multiple different ions in a sample comprising:
