Fullerene-C60 sensor for ultra-high sensitive detection of bisphenol-A and its treatment by green technology

Electrochemical determination of bisphenol A with a glassy carbon electrode modified with gold nanodendrites

“…As shown in Table 1, the peak currents of the as-developed method are comparable with those from other electrochemical methods in the literature [4,[34][35][36][37][38]. It might be attributed to the unique structures of gold nanodendrites [39] and subsequent self-assembly of 4-MBA.…”

“…It demonstrates that 4-MBA/gold nanodendrites/GCE has the enhanced anti-interference ability and improved selectivity. Compared with the other electrochemical sensors [4,[34][35][36][37][38], the as-developed method has good selectivity for detection of BPA, which can be applied for potential detection of BPA in real samples.…”

Adsorption of polyhydroxy fullerene on polyethylenimine-modified montmorillonite

“…Fullerene and its derivatives have gained immense attention so far due to their remarkable properties and potential applications in many areas, including environmental remediation (e.g., adsorbents and catalysts) (Yang et al, 2006;Meng et al, 2012), biomedicine (e.g., antibacterial and antitumor) (Markovic and Trajkovic, 2008;Kwag et al, 2013), and materials science (e.g., sensors, supercapacitors, and hydrogen storage) Xiong et al, 2012;Rather and De Wael, 2013). With the ever-increasing production and wide applications of fullerene-based carbon nanomaterials, they will inevitably enter into the environment (Colvin, 2003;Klaine et al, 2008).…”

Synergistic Effect of Lithium Perchlorate and Sodium Hydroxide in the Preparation of Electrochemically Treated Pencil Graphite Electrodes for Selective and Sensitive Bisphenol A Detection in Water Samples

“…Bisphenol A (BPA) is one of the endocrine disrupting hormones which mimic the endogenous hormones and has some adverse health effects such as impaired brain development and sexual differentiation [1][2][3][4]. It is also pointed out that BPA increases cancer risk [5], and decreases sperm quality in humans [6].…”

“…To overcome these limitations, modification of electrode surfaces using different approaches has been performed lately. In this context, Mg-Al-CO 3 layered double hydroxide [14], the imprinted sol-gel [15], MWCNT-melamine complex [16], fullerene-C 60 [1], Ndoped graphene sheets [17], SWCNT-cyclodextrin [18] and arginine functionalized nanocomposite graphene [19] have been employed in the modification of glassy carbon electrodes. Moreover, boron doped diamond electrode [20], mesoporous silica modified carbon paste electrodes [21] and polyaniline nanorods-multiwalled carbon nanotube modified basal plane pencil graphite [22] were also employed in the determination of BPA.…”
