The development of sensitive and selective methods for detecting pesticide residues has become paramount for ensuring food safety. In this work, a high-performance molecularly imprinted electrochemical sensor based on the composite of Cu-BTC- and FeCo-ZIF-derived N-doped carbon (FeCo@NC), synthesized by pyrolysis and electrodeposition, was developed for Benomyl (BN) detection. The materials were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). In this sensing system, the Cu-BTC/FeCo@NC composite used as the electrode substrate displayed a large specific surface area, high electronic conductivity, and rich active catalytic sites, demonstrating excellent electrocatalytic ability toward BN oxidation. Meanwhile, Cu-BTC, with its abundant surface functional groups, facilitated strong hydrogen bonding interactions with the imprinted template molecule of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT), promoting the formation of a uniform molecularly imprinted membrane on the substrate material surface. The introduced MIP-PEDOT could enhance the selective recognition and enrichment of the target BN, leading to an amplified detection signal. Thanks to the synergistic effects between Cu-BTC/FeCo@NC and MIP-PEDOT, the proposed sensor achieved a low detection limit of 1.67 nM. Furthermore, the fabricated sensor exhibited high selectivity, reproducibility, and interference resistance in detecting BN. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of BN in vegetable and fruit samples, indicating its potential for use in practical applications.
开发灵敏且具选择性的农药残留检测方法对于确保食品安全至关重要。在本研究中,通过热解和电沉积合成了一种基于Cu - BTC与FeCo - ZIF衍生的氮掺杂碳(FeCo@NC)复合材料的高性能分子印迹电化学传感器,用于检测苯菌灵(BN)。通过扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)和X射线光电子能谱(XPS)对材料进行了表征。在该传感系统中,用作电极基底的Cu - BTC/FeCo@NC复合材料具有大的比表面积、高电子导电性和丰富的活性催化位点,对BN氧化表现出优异的电催化能力。同时,Cu - BTC具有丰富的表面官能团,促进了与3,4 - 乙撑二氧噻吩(EDOT)印迹模板分子的强氢键相互作用,促使在基底材料表面形成均匀的分子印迹膜。引入的MIP - PEDOT可增强对目标BN的选择性识别和富集,导致检测信号放大。得益于Cu - BTC/FeCo@NC与MIP - PEDOT之间的协同效应,所提出的传感器实现了1.67 nM的低检测限。此外,制备的传感器在检测BN时表现出高选择性、重现性和抗干扰性。该方法已成功应用于蔬菜和水果样品中BN的测定,表明其在实际应用中的潜力。
