Abstract
A newly developed, cost-effective, easy-to-prepare, disposable, highly selective, and sensitive electrode was successfully created by simultaneously electropolymerizing tartrazine and ponceau monomers on graphite. This electrode was effectively used to detect the hazardous explosive dipicrylamine in real samples. The fabricated sensor was thoroughly characterized using CV, SEM, EDX, and XPS techniques. It demonstrated a significant calibration sensitivity of , a low limit of detection of 48.7 μg/L (visually 25 μg/L) and broad analytical ranges of 0.16–1.00, 2–10, and 14–50 mg/L. Furthermore, the sensor exhibited noteworthy repeatability (<3.8%), reproducibility (<2.3%), and stability, with a maximum 6.7% signal change after 7 days. To assess accuracy, the method was verificated using certified reference materials, including Elements in Soil (UME EnvCRM 03) and Elements in Wastewater (UME CRM 1204). Additionally, the results of the developed method were statistically compared with HPLC analyses using the CRMs.
期刊介绍:
The Microchemical Journal is a peer reviewed journal devoted to all aspects and phases of analytical chemistry and chemical analysis. The Microchemical Journal publishes articles which are at the forefront of modern analytical chemistry and cover innovations in the techniques to the finest possible limits. This includes fundamental aspects, instrumentation, new developments, innovative and novel methods and applications including environmental and clinical field.
Traditional classical analytical methods such as spectrophotometry and titrimetry as well as established instrumentation methods such as flame and graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry, gas chromatography, and modified glassy or carbon electrode electrochemical methods will be considered, provided they show significant improvements and novelty compared to the established methods.
