Abstract

In this article, an electrochemical sensor based on a gold nanocage (AuNC)‐modified carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was fabricated and applied to the sensitive rutin determination. The presence of AuNCs on the electrode surface greatly improved the electrochemical performance of the working electrode due to its specific microstructure and high metal conductivity. Electrochemical behavior of rutin on AuNCs/CILE was studied using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry with the related electrochemical parameters calculated. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the oxidation peak current of rutin and its concentration had good linear relationship in the range from 4.0 × 10−9 to 7.0 × 10−4 mol/L with a low detection limit of 1.33 × 10−9 mol/L (3σ). This fabricated AuNCs/CILE was applied to direct detection of the rutin concentration in drug samples with satisfactory results, showing the real application of AuNCs in the field of chemically modified electrodes.
