• /bjnano.15.120 Abstract A novel electrochemical sensor for the detection of enrofloxacin (ENR) in aqueous solutions has been developed using a carbon paste electrode modified with a mixture of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) of CuBTC and FeBTC. These MOFs were successfully synthesized via a solvothermal

• volume of 0.544 cm3/g, and a capillary diameter of 1.50 nm. Additionally, energy-dispersive X-ray mapping demonstrated the uniform distribution of the two MOFs within the electrode composition. The synergistic effect of the electrocatalytic properties of CuBTC and the high conductivity of FeBTC

• analysing tap and lake water samples, with recovery rates ranging from 90.2% to 121.3%. Keywords: CuBTC; electrochemical sensor; enrofloxacin; FeBTC; metal-organic framework; Introduction Enrofloxacin (ENR) is a quinolinemonocarboxylic acid and a third-generation fluoroquinolone.
