Abstract

Polymelamine formaldehyde/graphene oxide (PMF/GO) nanocomposite was used, for the first time, to study the ultrasensitive and selective electrochemical detection of oxycodone (OXC). The successful characterization of PMF/GO was verified based on scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and Raman spectroscopy. The modified GCE (PMF/GO-GCE) proved its electrocatalytic effect on OXC determination according to cyclic, linear sweep, and differential pulse voltammetry (CV, LSV, and DPV) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) studies. The developed sensor underoptimal conditions offered a linear relationship in a limited range of 0.01 to 45μmolL-1 with the limit of detection (LOD) of 2.0nmolL-1. The proposed PMF/GO-GCE sensor was effectively employed for the OXC detection in human urine and serum samples. Graphical abstract.
