Abstract
An electrochemical sensor was developed based on graphen oxide-polypyrrole modified glassy carbon electrode (GO/PPy/GCE) for sensitive determination of phenothrin in fruit samples. GO/PPy/GCE was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT-IR), Ultraviolet-Visible spectroscopy (UV–Vis) and Raman spectroscopy. The sensor was also characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. Compared to bare GCE, GO/GCE and PPy/GCE, the reduction peak current of phenothrin increased significantly at GO/PPy/GCE, demonstrating that GO/PPy/GCE exhibited electrocatalytic activity towards the reduction of phenothrin. Under the optimal conditions, the sensor showed a linear relationship over the range of 2.5 × 10−8-2.0 × 10−5 M with detection limits of 13.8 × 10−9 M. In addition, the analytical application of the proposed method was carried out by the determination of phenothrin in fruit juice samples.
