Abstract:

The COVID-19 outbreak has made a dramatic impact worldwide; the development of a rapid and simple method for the detection of SARS-COV-2 is thus of great significance. The problem 1 of the 54th International Chemistry Olympiad examines relevant knowledge in analytical chemistry with a focus on gold nanoparticles and their application in SARS-COV-2 nucleic acid detection.

Key words: Gold nanoparticles, Nucleic acid detection, UV-Vis absorption spectroscopy, Lambert-Beer Law
