Title: CdS/TiO2 Nanocomposite-Based Photoelectrochemical Sensor for a Sensitive Determination of Nitrite in Principle of Etching Reaction. Author: Gao B, Zhao X, Liang Z, Wu Z, Wang W, Han D, Niu L. Journal: Anal Chem; 2021 Jan 19; 93(2):820-827. PubMed ID: 33319981. Abstract: The CdS/TiO2 nanocomposite (NC) photoelectrochemical (PEC) sensor was constructed based on a new sensing strategy for nitrite assay. The CdS etching process caused by nitrite-in-acid solution was confirmed and applied to nitrite sensing. The CdS etching phenomenon occurring on the sensor led to an obvious reduction in the photocurrent response under visible-light irradiation, which responded to the nitrite concentration. The CdS/TiO2 NC-based PEC sensor exhibited excellent performance on nitrite detection. The linear range for nitrite determination was from 1-100 and 100-500 μM, and the sensitivity of the PEC sensor was 2.91 and 0.186 μA μM-1 cm-2, respectively. The detection limit of the sensor was 0.56 μM (S/N = 3). In addition, the PEC sensor was also equipped with advantages such as good selectivity, excellent stability, low background, and recyclability. Satisfying results were obtained for the nitrite assay in real samples by such a PEC sensor. In summary, this work contributed a fresh idea to precisely determinate nitrite through PEC sensing.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
