The present work reports the facile and cost-effective synthesis of rod like structured nickel doped bismuth sulphide (Ni-Bi2S3) via the ultrasonication process. The sonochemical synthesis technique is rapid, simple, nonexplosive, and harmless than other conventional synthesis technique. After the synthesis, the resultant material was characterized through the various spectrophotometric techniques including FESEM, EDX, XRD, XPS and EIS. After the structural evaluation, as-synthesized Ni-Bi2S3 was applied for the electrocatalytic detection of promethazine hydrochloride (PMTZ) using CV and amperometry (i-t) techniques. Captivatingly, excellent electrocatalytic performance with the wider linear range from 1 nM to 163.17 M was obtained for the electrochemical determination of PMTZ. The limit of detection (LOD) and sensitivity calculated around 0.4 nM and 2.904 mu A M-1 cm(-2), respectively. Besides, an excellent selectivity, satisfactory reproducibility and good stability of the Ni-Bi2S3 modified electrode were checked towards the electrochemical determination of PMTZ. Furthermore, the real time application of PMTZ sensor was established in human serum and urine samples.
