Abstract

Anelectrochemical sensoris established using an iron titanate (FeTiO3) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to detect nitrofurazone. Various microscopic and spectroscopic analysis was performed to reveal the properties of the prepared FeTiO3 hexagonal nanoplates. The FeTiO3/GCE presents enhanced electrochemical response to nitrofurazone at the peak reduction potential of - 0.471V with a larger peak current than the bare GCE due to high electrical conductivity, enhanced specific surface area, and abundant active sites. The superior nitrofurazone detection performance includes the low limit of detection of 0.002μM and the sensitivity of 0.551 µA µM-1cm-2 in the linear concentration range of 0.01-162.2μM. The reproducibility and selectivity studies of the FeTiO3/GCE show excellent results with a relative standard deviation of < 5%. The practicability of FeTiO3/GCE is confirmed by monitoring nitrofurazone in actual samples. This work demonstrates that perovskite-type FeTiO3 has great potential in real-world sample analysis, and provides a new way to develop high-performance electrochemical sensors.
