ABSTRACT

This paper presents an application for a molybdenum disulfide nanomaterial with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MoS2@MWCNT/E) in a modified electrode substrate for the detection of uric acid (UA). The modified electrode generates a substantial three-fold increase in the anodic peak current for UA compared to the unmodified MWCNT electrode (MWCNT/E). The MoS2@MWCNT/E surface was characterized by cyclic voltammetry (CV), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The achieved detection limit stood at 0.04 µmol/L, with a relative standard deviation (RSD) of 2.0% (n = 10). The method's accuracy, assessed through relative error and percent recovery, was validated using a urine standard solution spiked with known quantities of UA.

ABSTRACT

Antimony(III) is a rare electroactive specie present on Earth, whose concentration is not typically determined. The presence of high concentrations of antimony is responsible for a variety of diseases, which makes it desirable to find convenient and reliable methods for its determination. We have developed a convenient glassy carbon modified electrode with electroreduced graphene oxide GC/rGO for the first time determination of Sb(III) in commercial lettuce, celery, and beverages. The surface of the electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and cyclic voltammetry, indicating a heterogeneous and rough surface with a real area of 0.28 cm2, which is ~2.5 times the area of GC. The optimal chemical and electrochemical parameters used were: sodium acetate buffer (pH = 4.3), an accumulation potential of -1.0 V and an accumulation time of 150 s. The analytical validation was developed evaluating the linear range (10-60 µg L-1), limit of detection (2.5 µg L-1), accuracy, repetibility and reproducibility with satisfactory results (relative standard deviation (RSD) values lower than 10%). All the analyzes performed in real samples by stripping voltammetry were compared with GF-AAS, showing statistically similar values, demonstrating that GC/rGO could be effectively applied in the analysis of food samples.
