Crumpled graphene fully decorated with nickel-based nanoparticles applied in glyphosate detection.

ABSTRACT: Glyphosate (Glyp), a widely used herbicide, has raised significant concerns regarding its toxicological effects and potential risks to human health, particularly concerning water pollution. Hence, there is a critical need to monitor glyphosate levels in water bodies. This study introduces a novel approach for electrochemically detecting glyphosate in aqueous environments using crumpled graphene decorated with nickel-based nanoparticles (Ni:CG) synthesized in a single step. Cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry techniques were employed for detection. The cyclic voltammetry analysis revealed an impressive linear range with detection and quantification limits of 2.0 × 10^-9 M and 6.0 × 10^-9 M, respectively. Additionally, the method demonstrated excellent accuracy and p
