Very few MOF-related derivatives have been applied for sensors. Sensitive analysis of antibiotics in food products is one of the crucial research fields. The work described the synthesis of magnetic electrocatalyst with FeCo alloy nanoparticles confined in S, N-doped bamboo-like carbon nanotubes (FeCo@S,N-CNTs) by using bimetallic MOF as precursor. For comparison, a series of materials were prepared and used to modify screen-printed electrode (SPE). Their electrocatalytic capacities were investigated for the electrochemical reduction of two antibiotics, chloramphenicol (CAP) and nitrofurantoin (NFT). By using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), the magnetic FeCo@S,N-CNTs was found to possess the better electrocatalysis. Using the disposable FeCo@S,N-CNTs/SPE constructed by magnetic control, simultaneous analysis of CAP and NFT was achieved in linear ranges of 0.05-320.0 μM and 0.01-75.0 μM with the limit of detection of 20.0 nM and 3.5 nM, respectively. The real sample detection validated the practicability of FeCo@S,N-CNTs/SPE.
