Abstract:
The novel N-CeO2 nanoparticles decorated on reduced graphene oxide (N-CeO2@rGO) composite has been synthesized by sonochemical method. The characterization of as prepared nanocomposite was intensely performed by UV-Vis, FT-IR, EDX, FE-SEM, HR-TEM, XRD, and TGA analysis. The synthesized nanomaterial was further investigated for its selective and sensitive sensing of paracetamol (PM) based on a N-CeO2@rGO modified glassy carbon electrode. A distinct and improved reversible redox peak of PM is obtained at N-CeO2@rGO nanocomposite compared to the electrodes modified with N-CeO2 and rGO. It displays a very good performance with a wide linear range of 0.05-0.600 μM, a very low detection limit of 0.0098 μM (S/N = 3), a high sensitivity of 268 μA µM-1 cm-2 and short response time (<3 s). Also, the fabricated sensor shows a good sensibleness for the detection of PM in various tablet samples.

Pyruvate Oxidation
First, the enzyme pyruvate dehydrogenase removes the carboxyl group from pyruvate and releases it as carbon dioxide. The stripped molecule is then oxidized and releases electrons, which are then picked up by NAD+...
