        Due to the binding of the –COO- group with the mercury (II), gold nanoparticlesfunctionalized with glutathione can self-assemble to form a supermolecular network in the HAc-NaAc buffer solution. The aggregation of functionalized gold nanoparticles and mercury (II)caused the shift of maximum absorption peak of the UV-Vis spectrum from 520 nm to 609 nm.Based on this principle, a simple spectrophotometric method for determination of mercury (II)was preliminarily established. The detection limit of the developed method for determination ofmercury (II) was about 8.5×10-8 mol L-1. Manuscript profile
