Abstract
A sensor was developed to quantify labetalol through a two-step electrode modification process. Initially, a pencil graphite electrode (PGE) was immersed in a solution containing Ti₃C₂Tₓ MXene and bromophenol blue (BPB), enabling the co-deposition of MXene and BPB onto the electrode surface to form MXene@BPB/PGE. Subsequently, the modified electrode was transferred into a phosphate buffer solution (pH = 7.0) containing aminobenzenesulfonic acid, and electropolymerization was carried out via cyclic voltammetry (CV), resulting in the formation of poly(aminobenzenesulfonic acid) on the electrode (PABSA/MXene@BPB/PGE). Under optimized conditions, labetalol was detected in two linear dynamic ranges of 0.1–1.0 nM and 1.0–10.0 nM, with a detection limit of 0.02 nM. The method demonstrated high sensitivity and accuracy for labetalol determination in urine and blood samples. Electrode surface characterization was performed using field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and CV.
期刊介绍:
This journal is an international medium for the rapid publication of original research papers, short communications and subject reviews dealing with research on and applications of electronic polymers and electronic molecular materials including novel carbon architectures. These functional materials have the properties of metals, semiconductors or magnets and are distinguishable from elemental and alloy/binary metals, semiconductors and magnets.
