| Abstract: | An advanced electrochemical sensor for the detection of enrofloxacin (ENR) based on the use of a modified electrode containing cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanoparticles (NPs) is reported. The CdS NPs were synthesized and characterized and then coated onto the electrode to fabricate a modified electrode that exhibited a lower limit of detection of 9.5 × 10?8 mol·L?1. This detection limit compares with a traditional electrode that exhibited a concentration detection range of 1.0 × 10?2 to 1.0 × 10?7 mol·L?1. This modified electrode demonstrated good selectivity, reproducibility, response time (<40 s), lifetime (up to 12 wk), and pH range (3.3‐7.2) for the determination of ENR in real samples (eg, pig urine). |
