Sensitive determination of 4,6-dinitro--cresol based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with Zr-UiO-66 metal-organic framework entrapped FMWCNTs.

A DNOC electrochemical sensor has been developed by using a composite of Zr-UiO-66 and FMWCNTs on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and using the differential pulse voltammetry technique. The synthesized materials were physico-chemically characterized by BET, PXRD, FTIR, TGA, EDX, and FESEM. Cyclic voltammetry showed that DNOC has three oxidation peaks at 0.

An ultra-sensitive uric acid second generation biosensor based on chemical immobilization of uricase on functionalized multiwall carbon nanotube grafted palm oil fiber in the presence of a ferrocene mediator.

In this work, palm oil fiber (POF) grafted functionalized multiwall carbon nanotube (FMWCNT) decorated ferrocene (Fc) has been drop coated on a platinum electrode (Pt), in which uricase (UOx) has been chemically immobilized for sensitive and selective biosensing of uric acid (UA). Through the use of EDC/NHS, a stable bioelectrode (UOx/Fc/FMWCNT-POF/Pt) was obtained and characterized by FTIR/ATRIR, XRD, Raman, EA/EDX, TGA, SEM, TEM, CV, EIS, CA, and DPV. Results from DPV showed the rapid response of the developed bioelectrode towards UA (0.
