Abstract: | Binary metal oxides (La2O3@SnO2) decorated reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite was synthesized by ultrasound process in an environmentally benign solvent with a working frequency of 25 and 40 kHz (6.5 l200 H, Dakshin, India and maximum input power 210 W). Further, to enhance the electrocatalytic activity, the reduced graphene oxide (rGO) was prepared from graphene oxide by ultrasonication method. As prepared La2O3@SnO2/rGO was scrutinized using XRD, TEM, EDX and quantitative test for the structural and morphology properties. As modified La2O3@SnO2/rGO nanocomposite exhibits better electrochemical activity towards the oxidation of methyl nicotinate with higher anodic current compared to other modified and unmodified electrode for the detection of methyl nicotinate with larger linear range (0.035–522.9 µM) and lower limit of detection (0.0197 µM). In addition, the practical feasibility of the sensor was inspected with biological samples, reveals the acceptable recovery of the sensor in real samples. |
