Abstract
Gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) with a diameter range of 10–20 nm were synthesised by the electrochemical method. They were used to modify the working electrode surface of both screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) and screen-printed platinum electrodes (SPPtEs), aiming to identify a reliable electrode for the direct detection of chloramphenicol (CAP). The effect of AuNPs on electrochemical properties including electronic conductivity/resistance, stability, active surface area, and current intensity in SPCEs and SPPtEs was investigated. All modified electrodes showed considerably enhanced electrochemical performance. In particular, for Au/SPCEs, benefiting from the homogeneous distribution of AuNPs, the close connection, and high compatibility, as well as synergistic effects between the AuNPs and working electrode surface, the conductivity, electrochemically active area, and stability were significantly enhanced compared with those of Au/SPPtE. This finding was further confirmed by the results obtained from cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry, with a low detection limit of 0.1 µM compared with that at the SPCE, SPPtE, and Au/SPPtE. Thus, the use of AuNPs to modify SPEs is considered a promising approach to enhance the direct detection of CAP, in which Au/SPCE will be the best choice for developing a sensitive and efficient electrode for detecting CAP in samples.
