Abstract
Dopamine (DA) plays the role of the transmitter of information in the brain. Neurological diseases and depression are in close relationship with DA release. In this study, we developed a co-catalyst Zn0.2Cd0.8S@zeolitic imidazolate framework-67 (Zn0.2Cd0.8S@ZIF-67) to improve the photocatalyst efficacy of Rhodamine B (RhB) and electrochemical sensing of DA. Results show that Zn0.2Cd0.8S@ZIF-67 exhibits optimal photocatalytic activity with the addition of 80 mg ZIF-67. The degradation percentage of RhB by Zn0.2Cd0.8S@ZIF-67 reached 98.40% when the co-catalyst was 50 mg. Radical trapping experiments show that ·O2− played a significant role in the photocatalytic degradation of RhB. The catalytic mechanism of the Zn0.2Cd0.8S@ZIF-67 was found as a Z-type photocatalysis. Finally, a DA biosensor was constructed and displayed a high response and selectivity to DA. This can be attributed to the heterojunction between Zn0.2Cd0.8S and ZIF-67, which can significantly enhance the separation of e−/h+ and improve charge transfer. These findings will play a positive role in the in-situ monitoring of neurological diseases and depression.
