Article Synopsis
  • Zeolitic Imidazolate Frameworks (ZIFs) and Prussian Blue Analogues (PBAs) are effective materials for electrochemical sensors, and the study developed a composite of NiFe-PBA and ZIF-67 for better detection of furazolidone (FZD) on glassy carbon electrodes.
  • The NiFe-PBA/ZIF-67 composite showed high sensitivity, selectivity, and a low limit of detection (LOD) at 0.007 μM for FZD, indicating its effectiveness for real-world applications.
  • The electrochemical tests revealed a diffusion-controlled process with strong performance in distinguishing FZD from potential interferents, showcasing the sensor's reproducibility and stability through extensive evaluations.

The development of a robust electrocatalyst for the electrochemical sensor for hazardous pesticides will reduce its effects on the ecosystem. Herein, we synthesized the robust manganese cobalt phosphide (MnCoP) - Core-shell as an electrochemical sensor for the determination of hazardous pesticide methyl parathion (MP). The MnCoP- Core-shell was prepared with the sustainable self-template route can help with the larger surface area.

Engineering the nanostructure of an electrocatalyst is crucial in developing a high-performance electrochemical sensor. This work exhibits the hydrothermal followed by annealing synthesis of niobium oxide/niobium carbide/reduced graphene oxide (NbO/NbC/rGO) ternary nanocomposite. The oval-shaped NbO/NbC nanoparticles cover the surface of rGO evenly, and the rGO nanosheets are interlinked to produce a micro-flower-like architecture.

Article Synopsis
  • This study presents a method for creating potassium niobate (KNbO) using deep eutectic solvent (DES), which serves as an electrode material for detecting bisphenol A (BPA).
  • The KNbO-modified electrode shows superior electrocatalytic activity compared to a standard electrode, due to its increased active sites, larger surface area, and better electrical properties.
  • The sensor effectively detects BPA in a wide concentration range and can be applied in food testing, highlighting its practical use and potential for other electrochemical technologies.
