An electroanalytical sensor for the detection of antibiotic cefoperazone sodium sulbactam sodium residue in wastewater

What is it about?

It is about the designing of a novel nanosensor for the detection of the antibiotic Cefoperazone Sodium Sulbactam Sodium (CSSS).

Why is it important?

Pharmaceuticals, particularly antibiotics such as CSSS pose significant risks when they enter wastewater, necessitating their detection. Due to their stability, these substances persist in aquatic environments, impacting marine life and humans through the food chain. Prolonged use of CSSS and comparable antibiotics may contribute to the emergence of antibiotic resistance. Therefore, continuously monitoring these xenobiotics in wastewater is essential to mitigate their harmful effects. The designed sensor efficiently detects CSSS, evaluating its contamination levels, and unflods its proton-coupled redox mechanisms.
