Abstract:
In this work, graphene oxide (GO) has been prepared from used dry cells using modified Hummer's method and encapsulated with montmorillonite clay. To enhance its electrical property, the GO-MMT composite has been functionalised with Basic Red 9 dye. The sensor was characterized by various spectroscopic techniques like FT-IR spectroscopy, PXRD, SEM analysis, etc. Basic Red 9 dye functionalised GO-MMT composite has been employed for fluorescent and electrochemical detection of Ce3+ ion. The fluorescent turn-on sensing is sensitive, reversible and free from interference from other metal ions. The detection of Ce3+ ion by the sensor was also conducted in bovine serum albumin (BSA) medium. Pt electrode modified with the hybrid sensor produces excellent electrochemical change in presence of Ce3+ ion through cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry technique. The limit of detection (LOD) from fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry and square wave voltammetry were calculated to be 0.6556 × 10- 9 M, 1.232 × 10- 9 M and 1.923 × 10- 9 M respectively.
