Abstract: | Ag/g-C3N4 is fabricated and used as an electrode for determining trans-resveratrol concentration. The compositional and structural characteristics of the as-fabricated Ag/g-C3N4 are studied through X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectroscopy. Additionally, the electrochemical behavior of Ag/g-C3N4 is investigated using cyclic voltammetry. According to the experimental results, 1 wt%Ag/g-C3N4 exhibits an oxidation peak at 0.48 V, with a low detection limit (1.88 × 10−7 M) and satisfactory correlation coefficient (0.9975), suggesting that the proposed Ag/g-C3N4 electrode can be successfully used for detecting trans-resveratrol. |
