In this study, a sensitive and reusable electrochemical sensor based on wrinkled mesoporous carbon nanomaterials was developed for the assay of 17 beta-estradiol. The sensor exhibited high sensitivity, selectivity, reproducibility, and validated recoverability, showing great potential for the determination of endocrine disrupting chemicals.
In this study, we establish a sensitive and reusable electrochemical sensor for assay of 17 beta-estradiol (17 beta-E2) based on wrinkled mesoporous carbon (wMC) nanomaterials. wMC was synthesized by using the wrinkled silicon nanoparticle (wSiO(2)NP) as supporting and sacrificial hard template, which formed a hollow nanocage-like structure. Such a carbon-based composite structure endows rich accessible active sites, large specific surface area and high electrocatalytic activity. High performance electrochemical sensor based on the wMC modified electrodes has been achieved for various assays, presenting excellent reusability by a simple regeneration treatment for removal of fouling (phenolic compounds) in tetrabutyl ammonium hexafluorate (TAH)-acetone solution. For 17 beta-E2 assay, the linear response in the ranges of 0.05-10.0 mu M and 10.0-80.0 mu M have been achieved with the detection limit of 8.3 nM (S/N = 3). This sensor has also been successfully applied for the determination of 17 beta-E2 in the milk and real water samples, exhibiting comparable results measured using a high-performance liquid chromatography. This sensor presents high sensitivity, selectivity, reproducibility, and especially the validated recoverability, showing high potential for endocrine disrupting chemical assay.
