Abstract

A novel multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) based sensor was fabricated as a highly precise and stable electrochemical sensor. The synthesized sensor which consists of ZnNi bimetallic nanoalloy called the ZnNi NPs@f-MWCNT sensor, have been used for the simultaneous detection of uric acid (UA), dopamine (DA) and ascorbic acid (AA). The ZnNi NPs@f-MWCNT sensor obtained based on the microwave irradiation process, and its characterization was performed by using several physical techniques such as XRD, XPS, TEM, Raman, etc. The characterization showed that this sensor has excellent properties such as rich pore channels, excellent structural durability, and large surface area. These properties facilitated mass transfer and electron conductions. It was observed that the obtained sensor gave high electrochemical activity and wide linear responses (0.3
