A new voltammetric sensor is proposed for the determination of bisphenol A, using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with Fe3O4/graphene oxide (GO) nanocomposite. The modification of the electrode surface was performed by dispersion drop-casting. The electrochemical behavior of bisphenol A was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The oxidation peak was observed during the anodic potential scan at potentials of 0.45 V. Higher anodic peak currents (Ipa) were observed at Fe3O4/GO/GCE modified electrode than at bare GCE. The electrochemical determination by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) revealed a linear response in the concentration range of 1.0×10-7 to 5.0×10-5 M, with a detection limit of 9.0×10-8 M. The proposed method was successfully applied using water samples, with good recoveries.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
