In this study, a novel tetrabromobisphenol A (TBBPA) sensor was fabricated based on a CTAB-capped gold nanoparticle (AuNPs)-thio-beta-cyclodextrin (SH-beta-CD)/graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The peak current of TBBPA was dramatically enhanced by the AuNPs with a diameter of 6.2 nm on the modified electrodes compared with the other sized particles (10.1 or 16.1 nm). To further improve the electrochemical performance of the modified electrode, the influence of pH of the buffer solution and the accumulation time on the determination were investigated. The optimum pH and accumulation time were 7.0 and 180 s, respectively. The developed sensor exhibited good reproducibility, and excellent sensitivity and selectivity, showing a low detection limit (1.2 x 10(-9) mol L-1) and a linear range from 1.5 x 10(-8) to 7 x 10(-6) mol L-1. In addition, a possible oxidization mechanism of TBBPA was also discussed. Finally, this sensor was successfully applied to detect TBBPA in water samples, and the results were consistent with those acquired by high-performance liquid chromatography.
