Abstract:The surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was purposely modified to enhance its sensing characteristics. A composite of surfactant 1-(2, 4-dinitrophenyl)-dodecanoylthiourea (DAN) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) was employed as modified for the sensitive detection of oxoplatin (OXP), an extensively used anticancer drug. It enters into water bodies through improper handling in underdeveloped countries where drug disposal precautions are not fully respected. The designed platform (DAN/AuNPs/GCE) displays rema… Show more
