Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
Arsenic (As) as a metal ion has long-term toxicity and its presence in water poses a serious threat to the environment and human health. So, rapid and accurate recognition of traces of As is of particular importance in environmental and natural resources. In this study, a fast and sensitive colorimetric method was developed using silver nano prisms (Ag NPrs), cysteine-capped Ag NPrs, and methionine-capped Ag NPrs for accurate detection of arsenic-based on transforming the morphology of silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The generated Ag atoms from the redox reaction of silver nitrate and As(iii) were deposited on the surface of Ag NPrs and their morphology changed to a circle. The morphological changes resulted in a change in the color of the nanoparticles from blue to purple, which was detectable by the naked eye. The rate of change was proportional to the concentration of arsenic. The changes were also confirmed using UV-Vis absorption spectra and showed a linear relationship between the change in adsorption peak and the concentration of arsenic in the range of 0.0005 to 1 ppm with a lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) of 0.0005 ppm. The proposed probes were successfully used to determine the amount of As(iii) in human urine samples. In addition, modified microfluidic substrates were fabricated with Ag NPrs, Cys-capped Ag NPrs, and methionine-capped Ag NPrs nanoparticles that are capable of arsenic detection in the long-time and can be used in the development of on-site As(iii) detection kits. In addition, silver nanowires (AgNWs) were used as a probe to detect arsenic, but good results were not obtained in human urine specimens and paper microfluidic platforms. In this study, for the first time, AgNPs were developed for optical colorimetric detection of arsenic using paper-based microfluidics. Ag NPrs performed best in both optical and colorimetric techniques. Therefore, they can be a promising option for the development of sensitive, inexpensive, and portable tools in the environmental and biomedical diagnosis of As(iii).
