description | In this paper, the preparation, characterization, and electrochemical application of Cu<sub>2</sub>O nanoparticles and an electrochemical reduced graphene oxide nanohybrid modified glassy carbon electrode (denoted as Cu<sub>2</sub>O NPs‒ERGO/GCE) are described. This modified electrode was used as an electrochemical sensor for the catalytic oxidation of rhodamine B (RhB), and it exhibited an excellent electrochemical performance for RhB. The oxidation potential of RhB was decreased greatly, and the sensitivity to detect RhB was improved significantly. Under optimum conditions, a linear dynamic range of 0.01−20.0 μM and a low detection limit of 0.006 μM were obtained with the Cu<sub>2</sub>O NPs‒ERGO/GCE by using second‒order derivative linear sweep voltammetry. In addition, the selectivity of the prepared modified electrode was analyzed for the determination of RhB. The practical application of this sensor was investigated for the determination of RhB in food samples, and satisfactory results were obtained. |
