Abstract

In recent years, metal–organic framework (MOF) has become a hot electrode material for electrochemistry. However, it has rarely been studied in uric acid detection. In this paper, cubic Ni-based MOF has been synthesized by Ni(NO3)2·6H2O and H3BTC in room temperature; then, Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) were decorated on Ni-MOF by in situ synthesis method. This electrochemical sensor can response to uric acid (UA) in solution and enhance response signal of UA detection. Next, some experiment conditions including pH, scan rate, and proportion between Au NPS and Ni-MOF have been optimized with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). And then, the Au/Ni-MOF has been charactered with scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Experiment finding, this electrochemical sensor has a wide linearity range from 15 to 500 μM with a low detection limit of 5.6 μM (S/N = 3). Besides, the sensor constructed also has excellent selectivity and stability. Finally, the Au/Ni-MOF sensor was successfully applied in uric acid detection in the body’s serum.
