Effectively detecting catechol (CC) and hydroquinone (HQ) simultaneously is crucial for environmental protection and human health monitoring. In the study presented herein, a novel electrochemical sensor for the sensitive simultaneous detection of CC and HQ was constructed based on an electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO)-modified multi-walled carbon nanotube paste electrode (MWCNTPE). Scanning electron microscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy and electrochemical techniques were utilized to characterize the sensing interface and investigate the sensing mechanism. Under the optimal detection conditions, the oxidation peak currents of CC and HQ show a good linear relationship with their concentrations in the range of 0.4-400 μM with a detection limit of 0.083 μM for CC and 0.028 μM for HQ (S/N = 3). Moreover, the sensor exhibits good performance and can be applied successfully in the simultaneous detection of CC and HQ in tap water samples and urine samples with satisfactory results, indicating its promising application prospects.
