Resumo: |
Two novel and pioneering photoelectrochemical sensors were developed for determination of tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ) in biodiesel and edible oil samples. The former based on composite formed by TiO2 nanoparticles and lithium tetracyanethylene (LiTCNE), and the last based on the sensitization of CdSe/ZnS quantum dots with LiTCNE. In both cases, indium tin oxide (ITO) was used as the work electrode surface. The LiTCNE/TiO2/ITO sensor showed a TBHQ photocurrent about 28-fold higher than the TiO2 sensor. The same was observed for the CdSe/ZnS/LiTCNE/ITO sensor, which presented a photocurrent for TBHQ about 13-fold higher than that presented by the electrode modified with CdSe/ZnS. Both developed sensors showed lower resistance to charge transfer than their non-sensitized components. They also demonstrated high selectivity to TBHQ, with high photocurrent for this compound in comparison to photocurrent responses to other phenolic antioxidants. The experimental conditions optimized for both sensors were: 0.1 mol L-1 of phosphate buffer solution pH 7.0 and applied potential to the working electrode of 450 mV, for the LiTCNE/TiO2/ITO sensor, and 0.1 mol L-1 of phosphate buffer solution pH 6.0, and potential of 400 mV for the CdSe/ZnS/LiTCNE/ITO sensor. In these conditions, the sensors presented a linear range of TBHQ response between 0.4 and 500 μmol L-1 for LiTCNE/TiO2/ITO sensor and between 0.6 and 250 μmol L-1 for the CdSe/ZnS/LiTCNE/ITO sensor, with limits of detection of 0.10 and 0.21 μmol L-1, respectively. The LiTCNE/TiO2/ITO sensor was applied in biodiesel samples for determination of TBHQ using standard addition method, showing recovery values between 96.8 and 98.2%. The CdSe/ZnS/LiTCNE/ITO sensor was applied in edible oil samples to detect TBHQ using an external calibration method, with recovery values between 98.25 and 99.83%. The photoelectrochemical sensors were successfully used to determine the TBHQ antioxidant in real samples of biodiesel and vegetable oil. |
