Abstract
|
In this study, cerium oxide and multi-walled carbon nanotubes nanocomposite
were incorporated into the carbon ceramic electrode (CeO2–MWCNTs/CCE) as
a renewable electrode for the electrocatalytic purposes. To demonstrate capability of the fabricated electrode, determination of tamoxifen as an important
anticancer drug with differential pulse voltammetry technique was evaluated in
details. Linear range, limit of detection and sensitivity of the developed sensor
were found to be 0.2–40 nM, 0.132 nM and 1.478lAnM-1
cm
-2
, respectively.
Ease of production, low cost and high electron transfer rate of the CeO2–
MWCNTs/CCE promises it as a novel electro-analytical tool for determination
of important species in real samples.
