Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0034] Embodiment 1
[0035] The micro-powder material is broken into small pieces with a crusher or hammer, and then placed in a sealed crucible with a cover after passing through a 40 mesh sieve. The crucible is placed in a muffle furnace set at 700°C, and the oxygen-limited pyrolysis is performed for 3h. The material is ground and passed through a 100 mesh sieve to obtain the micro-powder nanomaterial. 5-20mg of the above micro-powder nanomaterial is weighed, added to 5ml of ultrapure water, and ultrasonically shaken for 1h. 5-10μL of the dispersion liquid is dropped on the surface of a clean electrode using a pipette to obtain an electrode surface containing the modified material, which is dried under an incandescent lamp for use.
[0036] The micro-powder modified electrode has good electrocatalytic activity for dopamine in the working potential range of 0.30V. As the concentration of dopamine increases, the electrode shows a significantly enhanced response current signal, and the response speed is very fast, with a response time of less than 5s for 90% of the steady-state current. The concentration range is divided into two segments for linear fitting, with the equation y1=0.10797x+0.0782 and a correlation coefficient R2=0.9719, and the equation y2=0.00549x+0.2436 and a correlation coefficient R2=0.9875. The response sensitivity is 0.10797μA / (μmol / L).
[0037] Example 2
[0038] The crushed ginger stem powder and micro-powder are mixed in proportions of 1:0, 0:1, 1:1, 1:2, 2:1, 1:3, 3:1, 2:3, and 3:2, respectively, and then subjected to oxygen-limited pyrolysis at 700°C for 3h. The material is ground and passed through a 100 mesh sieve to prepare ginger stem / micro-powder biochar nanocomposite materials. 5-20mg of each of the nine micro-powder nanomaterials is weighed, added to 3mL of ultrapure water, and ultrasonically dispersed for 1h to obtain a suspension containing the modified material. 5-10μL of the dispersion liquid is dropped on the surface of a clean electrode using a pipette, and the electrode is dried under an infrared lamp for use.
[0039] Figure 2 The effect of the mass ratio of ginger stem to micro-powder on the electrochemical performance of the micro-powder / ginger stem biochar nanocomposite material is shown in Figure 2 It can be seen that when the ratio of ginger stem to micro-powder is 2:3, the prepared nanocomposite material has the smallest oxidation peak potential value and the highest oxidation peak current for sodium nitrite, which is more conducive to the detection of sodium nitrite.
[0040] Compared with the bare electrode, pure micro-powder, pure ginger stem, and micro-powder / ginger stem biochar materials can all enhance the detection performance for sodium nitrite, among which the micro-powder / ginger stem biochar nanocomposite material has the best effect as shown in Figure 3 .
[0041] The current response of different concentrations of nitrite on the electrode surface was measured by differential pulse voltammetry as shown in Figure 4 A.Figure 4 B can be known that its linear range is wide, sodium nitrite (5 μM ~ 1000 μM) concentration and peak current presents good linear relationship, its linear correlation coefficient R2 is 0.9980, linear equation is ipa = 0.00566χ + 0.11565. The detection limit of sodium nitrite is low, and the detection limit can reach 2 μM.
