Ultra-sensitive electrochemical sensing of acetaminophen and codeine in biological fluids using CuO/CuFe2O4 nanoparticles as a novel electrocatalyst

Copper ferrite-copper oxide (CuO-CuFe2O4) nanoparticles as a semiconductor composite with pen junction were synthesized by co-precipitation reaction. Then, a novel CuOCuFe2O4 carbon paste modified electrode was fabricated which displays an effectual electrocatalytic response to the oxidation of acetaminophen (AC) and codeine (CO). A linear range of 0.01e1.5 μmol L -1 and 0.06-10.0 μmol L -1 with the detection limits of 0.007 μmol L -1 and 0.01 μmol L -1 were achieved for AC and CO, respectively. The practical usage of the proposed sensor revealed reasonable results for quantification of AC and CO in biological fluids.
