The over-exploitation of antibiotics in food and farming industries ruined the environmental and human health. Consequently, electrochemical sensors offer significant advantages in monitoring these compounds with high accuracy. Herein, MOF-derived hollow CoS@MoS (CS@MS) heterostructure has been prepared hydrothermally and applied to fabricate an electrochemical sensor to monitor nitrofuran class antibiotic drug.

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.

An electrocatalyst with a large active site is critical for the development of a high-performance electrochemical sensor. This work demonstrates the fabrication of an iron diselenide (FeSe)-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) for the electrochemical determination of furaltadone (FLD). It has been prepared by the facile method and systematically characterized with various microscopic/spectroscopic approaches.

Binary metal oxides with carbon nanocomposites have received extensive attention as research hotspots in the electrochemistry field owing to their tunable properties and superior stability. This work illustrates the development of a facile sonochemical strategy for the synthesis of a copper bismuthate/graphene (GR) nanocomposite-modified screen-printed carbon electrode (CBO/GR/SPCE) for the electrochemical detection of catechol (CT). The formation of an as-prepared CBO/GR nanocomposite was comprehensively characterized.

Herein, an electrochemical sensor based on samarium oxide anchored, reduced graphene oxide (SmO/RGO) nanocomposite was developed for the rapid detection of carbendazim (CBZ). Different characterization methods were infused to deeply examine the morphology, composition, and elemental state of SmO/RGO nanocomposite. The SmO/RGO modified electrode exhibits an excellent electro-catalytic performance toward CBZ detection with a peak potential of +1.
