Abstract
Dopamine (DA) is an important neurotransmitter in human’s brain, which has direct connection to diseases like Parkinson’s disease, schizophrenia, etc. Therefore, the sensitive and rapid quantitative detection of DA is essential for medical diagnosis and disease prevention. To construct a novel electrochemical sensor for DA detection, nickel-based metal–organic frameworks (Ni–MOF) were synthesized through a hydrothermal method and combined with β-cyclodextrin. Under optimal experimental conditions, the sensor exhibited a wide linear detection range (0.7–310.2 μM) and a low detection limit (0.227 μM). Furthermore, the sensor exhibited satisfactory stability and accuracy in an electrochemical study involving human serum and dopamine hydrochloride injection samples containing DA, and the redox mechanism of the sensor was elucidated. Overall, this study presents a novel electrochemical sensor based on cyclodextrins and MOFs for DA detection.
