Photoelectrochemical sensor based on composite of CdTe and nickel tetra-amined phthalocyanine covalently linked with graphene oxide for ultrasensitive detection of curcumin
A novel efficient photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor was assembled for curcumin (Cur) detection using 2-mercaptoacetic acid (TGA)-capped CdTe nanoparticles and nickel tetra-amined phthalocyanine-linked graphene oxide (TGA-CdTe@NiTAPc-Gr). The TGA-CdTe nanoparticles could be firmly immobilized on the thin film structure of NiTAPc-Gr in a hydrogen-bonded manner, thus producing the proposed PEC sensor with a high photoelectrochemical activity of TGA-CdTe nanoparticles and excellent stability of NiTAPc-Gr. The TGA-CdTe@NiTAPc-Gr thin film showed a stronger blue light absorption property than the individual precursors, and this resulted in the sensitive detection of Cur ranging from 0.25–100 μM with a detection limit of 12.50 nM. In addition, the PEC sensor exhibited a high sensitivity and selectivity and quite good reproducibility. Thus, it shows potential for Cur detection in real samples.
