RESUMO
A facile hydrothermal route was employed for the synthesis of iron-nickel bimetal organic frameworks (Fe-Ni bi-MOFs) and composite with an acid functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (Fe-Ni MOF/f-MWCNTs) for electrochemical detection of tartrazine. The as-prepared Fe-Ni MOF/f-MWCNTs was confirmed by the several physicochemical studies. A micro spindle shaped, highly porous, and crystalline Fe-Ni MOF/f-MWCNTs was noticed. The high sensitivity and stability of Fe-Ni MOF/f-MWCNTs/GCE modified electrode was analyzed. Due to its high porosity nature, the analyte molecule effectively gets adsorbed on the modified electrode and undergo electrochemical oxidation effectively. The modified electrode exhibits low limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) as 0.04 × 10-6 mol/L and 0.13 × 10-6 mol/L towards tartrazine. These results reveal the potential applications of Fe-Ni MOF/f-MWCNTs/GCE as modified electrode material for sensitive detection of tartrazine along with its robust reproducibility, stability, and effective sensing properties.
