ABSTRACT
Herein, a novel electrochemical sensor based on zirconium-doped cobalt oxyhydroxide (ZrCoOOH) was proposed for highly sensitive non-enzymatic determination of malathion (MAL). The doping of Zr can improve the electrical conductivity of CoOOH, of which the transfer resistance was reduced from 241.1 Ω to 140.2 Ω. Furthermore, the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy confirmed that part of Co2+ was converted to Co3+ due to the introduction of Zr. The Co3+ in ZrCoOOH could react with MAL to form Co2+, which enhanced the electrooxidation current of Co2+. Therefore, the peak current of Co2+ was served as detection probe for MAL. Under optimal conditions, the developed sensor established the linear relationship for MAL in the concentration range of 0.001-10.0 µM with a low limit of detection (0.64 nM). The constructed sensor was employed to detect MAL in food samples (peach, kiwi fruit, spinach and tomato), verifying the accuracy and practicability of the sensor.
