Pen sensor made with silver nanoparticles decorating graphite-polyurethane electrodes to detect bisphenol-A in tap and river water samples

. The PEN Sensor could also detect bisphenol-A in tap and river water samples, with satisfactory reproducibility and repeatability, while common interferents did not affect electrooxidation of bisphenol-A. The high sensitivity and rapid detection are suitable for real-time analysis and in loco monitoring of emerging pollutants. With their robustness and versatility, PEN Sensors such as those fabricated here may be integrated into futuristic smart robotic systems.
