Özet

© 2021 Elsevier LtdIn this work, an electrochemical sensor for the azo dye compound tartrazine (TRT) determination was proposed. A screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was modified by depositing three-dimensional porous reduced graphene oxide decorated with carbon quantum dots and platinum nanoparticles (Pt/CQDs@rGO/SPCE). The resulting amount of TRT was observed by differential pulse voltammetry. Under optimal conditions, the sensor exhibited two wide linearities ranging from 0.01 to 1.57 μM and 1.57–9.3 μM with the reliability coefficient of determination of 0.991 and 0.992, respectively. The detection limit (LOD) was also estimated to be 7.93 nM. Moreover, the Pt/CQDs@rGO/SPCE suggested high selectivity in the presence of several interfering agents and azo dye compounds that have a similar structure. Additionally, the Pt/CQDs@rGO/SPCE revealed superior recovery values of about 96.5–101.6% for candy, 99.7–103.5% for soft drinks, 96.0–101.2% for jelly powder, and 98.0–103.0% for water samples. Furthermore, the fabricated sensor exhibits excellent selectivity, stability, reproducibility, and repeatability, indicating a great perspective in the monitoring of TRT. Therefore, it can be speculated that the proposed electrode could be effectively applied to determine TRT in food samples.
