Abstract

Abstract Methotrexate (MTRX) is an anticancer drug that is also used for several chronic illnesses; however, a high dosage of MTRX can cause adverse effects, so it is necessary to monitor the MTRX level in blood and urine samples. This work reports the electrochemical determination of MTRX based on Sb2O3 and Bi2O3 composite material (Sb2O3@Bi2O3)modified electrodes. The one-pot sonohydrolysis synthesis method is employed for the preparation of the Sb2O3@Bi2O3 composite, which reveals high crystallinity with mixed phases of monoclinic Bi2O3 and cubic Sb2O3. Furthermore, the phases are identified by XRD, Raman spectroscopy, XPS, and HRTEM analysis. This composite reveals nanoneedle and nanocube morphologies. The Sb2O3@Bi2O3modified GCE shows excellent electrochemical activity for the detection of the anticancer drug methotrexate (MTRX). The activity is compared with the individual Sb2O3 and Bi2O3 compounds. Sb2O3@Bi2O3/GCE shows good electroanalytical characteristics in chronoamperometric analysis. Sb2O3@Bi2O3/GCE exhibits a linear range of approximately 0.01 μM to 174.6 μM, a sensitivity of 1.46 μA cm-2μM-1, and an LOD of 2.9 nM. Moreover, Sb2O3@Bi2O3/GCE delivered high selectivity among highly interfering compounds in blood and urine samples.
