Electrochemical sensing of lead in drinking water using β-cyclodextrin-modified MWCNTs
Abstract
A simple, facile and low-cost modification of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with β-cyclodextrin (βCD) through a physical (Phys) and a covalent approach via Steglich esterification (SE) is demonstrated for the detection of lead (Pb). The Pb sensing performance is governed by the amount of βCD present in the MWCNT-βCD matrix and the physical/chemical attachment of βCD with MWCNT. The physically modified MWCNT-βCD based electrode showed …
