Development of Promising Flower-like Ag/SrFeO

The development of highly efficient electrocatalytic sensors is necessary for detection in various paramedical and industrial applications. Motivated by this concept, we demonstrate flower-like Ag/SrFeO3 nanostructures prepared by a facile route to modify electrocatalyst material for the detection of caffeic acid (CA). The surface morphology, phase structure, particle size, and pore volume were investigated through different physicochemical analytical techniques. The cyclic voltammetry technique was employed to evaluate the electrochemical behavior of both glassy carbon and modified Ag/SrFeO3 electrodes toward CA. The study revealed that the modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic activity toward CA compared to the reported values, with a wide linear range of 1-15 nM, a detection limit of 23 nM, good stability, and excellent repeatability. The superior results are attributed to numerous factors such as rapid electron transfer ability, tunable texture, high surface area, and good conductivity. The created Ag/SrFeO3 nanostructure-based electrochemical biosensor is a potential candidate for real-time analytical performance to directly detect CA in commercially available coffee and green tea without any pre-treatment.
