“…Electroanalytical strategies 12,26,27 to detect pharmaceuticals often involve the modification of working electrodes using carbon-based conductive materials, such as carbon nanotubes (CNTs), 11 graphene, 27 and carbon black. 28 Metal nanoparticles are attractive for this purpose, because of their large surface area, high conductivity, and robust nature. [29][30][31][32][33][34][35] OCNTs have shown advantages of interacting with the analyte prior to electrochemical measurements, due to the presence of polar functional groups and thereby increasing the overall sensitivity of the chemical sensor.…”
