RESUMO
The ultrasound-assisted synthesis of a novel neodymium sesquioxide nanoparticles (Nd2O5 NPs) decorated graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite under ultrasonic probe (Ultrasonic processor model-PR 1000; frequency-30â¯kHz; power of 100â¯W/cm2) has been reported. After then, SEM, TEM, XRD, EDX and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy characterized was analyzed using Nd2O5 NPs@GO nanomaterial. Furthermore, the nanomaterial modified GCE (glassy carbon electrode) shows excellent electrochemical sensing performance towards anti-cancer drug. Raloxifene is one of the important anti-cancer drug. Moreover, the fabricated electrochemical sensor has showed a wide linear range for raloxifene between 0.03 and 472.5⯵M and nanomolar detection limit (18.43â¯nM). In addition, the Nd2O5 NPs@GO modified sensor has been applied to the determination of raloxifene in human blood and urine samples.
