Abstract
Notice of Retraction
After careful and considered review of the content of this paper by a duly constituted expert committee, this paper has been found to be in violation of IEEE´s Publication Principles.
We hereby retract the content of this paper. Reasonable effort should be made to remove all past references to this paper.
The presenting author of this paper has the option to appeal this decision by contacting TPII@ieee.org.
The red-tide occurrences are critical issues in some costal zones of China. It causes a threat of the coastal fish/shellfish aquaculture and economic loss. In order to minimize harms caused by red tides, especially by neurotoxins such as a Saxitoxin (STX). In this paper, a new approach to detect STX by Surface plasmon resonance (SPR) was proposed to in-situ determine STX concentration. Based on the mathematical model of multi-prism coupled SPR by Maxwell´s Equations and Fresnel Equation, the parameter of a resonant angle was evaluated by the different concentration of Saxitoxin in the case of 632.8nm wavelength. The approach demonstrated high sensitivity and better selectivity for monitoring Saxitoxin by a SPR numerical simulation method.
