Abstract
The development of nanomaterials for use as bio-recognition elements is important in the evolution of biosensing systems. In the present article we present a sensing system based on copper oxide nanoparticles (CuO NPs) for the detection of phenolic compounds and pesticides. This sensor takes advantage of the interactions of CuO NPs with toxic compounds that in turn generate an electrochemical signal related to the concentration of the pollutants.
