Highly sensitive determination of anesthetic drug benzocaine based on hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin–carbon black nanohybrids

Abstract

Benzocaine (BZC) is a local anaesthetic drug coupled with numerous adverse effects, it posed thus a great challenge for its simple and highly sensitive detection. For resolving this issue, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin-carbon...

Simple and sensitive electrochemical sensing of amethopterin by using carbon nanobowl/cyclodextrin electrode

“…As a simple oligosaccharide, β-cyclodextrins (β-CD) is considerable cheap and can be used to improve the water-solubility and dispersibility of the β-CD-based nanohybrids as the solubilizer [ [36] , [37] , [38] , [39] , [40] ]; meanwhile, the β-CD molecule exhibits excellent molecule recognition and accumulation capability [ [41] , [42] , [43] , [44] ]. Thus in this work, the nanohybrids composed of CNB and β-CD (CNB-CD) was prepared with a simple way for the first time ( Scheme 1 ) and dedicated to fabricate a low-cost, simple, and highly sensitive electrochemical sensing platform of ATP.…”
