Widely presented nitrite in drinking water, food and even physiological system endangers human health. Here,bare gold nanoparticles functionalized Zr-based metal-organic framework modified reduced graphene oxide (GNPs/UiO-66-NH 2 /rGO) nanocomposites were prepared by hydrothermal method. This experiment studies the morphology, composition, structure and electrochemical behavior of the sensor. The experimental results show that the sensor has a peak potential of 0.9 V, the concentration range of NO 2 À is 5.0 μM to 768 μM, the linear regression equation of the calibration curve is I pa = 0.3646 + 0.00642 C (R 2 = 0.9998), and the LOD is as low as 3.7 μM (S/N = 3). Therefore, an electrochemical sensor platform for trace detection of NO 2 À was successfully constructed.
