A gallic acid food electrochemical sensor based on amplification of paste electrode by Cdo/CNTs nanocomposite and ionic liquid

Gallic acid is one of the most abundant phytochemical in nature with anticancer activity against the prostate cancer. In this research work, carbon paste electrode (PE) modified with CdO/CNTs nanocomposite and ۱-hexyl-۳-methyl imidazoliume bromide (HMIZBr) design and made-up for determination of gallic acid in food samples. Electrochemical behavior of gallic acid at the CdO/CNTs/HMIZBr/PE was investigated in aqueous solution using the voltammetric methods. The gallic acid oxidation signal was improved about ۲.۸۲ times on the surface of the CdO/CNTs/HMIZBr/PE compared with that of the PE. Using differential pulse voltammetric method as sensitive strategy, the CdO/CNTs/HMIZBr/PE showed linear dynamic range ۰.۰۰۴-۵۰۰ µM with detection limit of ۰.۹ nM to determine the gallic acid. In addition, real sample analysis data showed the powerful ability of the CdO/CNTs/HMIZBr/PE to determine the gallic acid in white rice.
