Abstract

This study presents a facial and quick electrochemical sensor platform that offers remarkable water and food safety applications. The present work represents a study of the synthesis and characterization for efficient cerium vanadate (CeVO4) with a functionalized carbon nanofiber (f-CNF) decorated electrode, which is a highly effective electrode modifier for sensitive nitrite detection. The CeVO4 nanoparticles were synthesized using the facial hydrothermal technique, and a composite (CeVO4@f-CNF) was prepared using the sonication method. Afterward, the produced materials were confirmed with spectroscopic and microscopic analysis. The electrochemical behavior of nitrite was studied through cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The DPV analysis depicts an excellent linear range of 0.1˗1033 μM and a promising detection limit of 0.004 μM for the proposed electrode. The CeVO4@f-CNF electrode was applied to detect nitrite in water and meat samples. The proposed electrochemical sensor attributes the significant results towards the detection of nitrite.
