Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) consisting of metal ions and organic ligands have shown great potential in electrochemical sensors due to their high specific surface areas, controllable porous structures, and abundant metal active sites. In this study, a 3D conductive network structure (C-Co-N@MWCNTs) was developed by anchoring zeolite imidazole frameworks (ZIF-67) onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and carbonizing them, which exhibited excellent electron conductivity, a porous structure, and considerable electrochemical active sites for the detection of adrenaline (Ad). The developed Ad sensor demonstrated high sensitivity and selectivity, with a low detection limit of 6.7 nmol L-1 (S/N = 3) and a wide linear range of 0.02 μmol L-1-1.0 mmol L-1. The C-Co-N@MWCNTs electrode also showed promising performance in detecting Ad in real human serum samples.
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are composed of metal ions and organic ligands with high specific surface areas, controllable porous structures and abundant metal active sites, showing their extraordinary potential in electrochemical sensors. Here, a 3D conductive network structure (C-Co-N@MWCNTs) is designed by anchoring zeolite imidazole frameworks (ZIF-67) onto multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and carbonizing them. The C-Co-N@MWCNTs exhibit excellent electron conductivity, a porous structure and considerable electrochemical active sites, which can effectively demonstrate high sensitivity and selectivity in the detection of adrenaline (Ad). The Ad sensor exhibited a low detection limit of 6.7 nmol L-1 (S/N = 3) and a wide linear range of 0.02 & mu;mol L-1-1.0 mmol L-1. The developed sensor also displayed high selectivity, good reproducibility and repeatability. The C-Co-N@MWCNTs electrode was further employed in the detection of Ad in a real sample of human serum, suggesting that it is a promising candidate for electrochemical sensing of Ad.
