Author interpretations and caveats

Paraphrased for this database from the authors’ stated interpretations — never quoted verbatim — and kept separate from reported measurements.

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High

The sensor gives acceptable CBZ recoveries in strawberry and cabbage samples.

Caveat: Food samples were pretreated, filtered, and diluted 100 times before analysis.

p006-p008 · Section 3.8 · Table 2 · Linked to 4 structured results

Application RelevanceSupport assessment: High

Co-MOFs/CNHs/GCE enables sensitive CBZ detection with 0.5 nM-20.0 uM linear range and 0.2 nM LOD.

Caveat: Application performance is for DPV sensing in buffer and selected food extracts.

p006-p007 · Section 3.6 · Figure 10; Table 1 · Linked to 4 structured results

Composite RoleSupport assessment: High

CNHs improve charge-transfer behaviour of the Co-MOF electrode, reducing Rct versus pristine Co-MOFs/GCE.

Caveat: Conductivity is inferred from electrochemical impedance/charge-transfer resistance, not a direct four-probe conductivity measurement.

p003-p004 · Section 3.2 · Figure 4 · Linked to 3 structured results

Structure Property LinkSupport assessment: High

The Co-MOFs/CNHs composite has the largest electro-active surface area among the compared electrodes, supporting enhanced CBZ response.

Caveat: Area is electro-active surface area from chronocoulometry, not BET porosity.

p004-p005 · Section 3.2 · Figure 5 · Linked to 4 structured results

Synthesis MechanismSupport assessment: High

A one-step electrochemical co-deposition strategy can directly form Co-MOFs/CNHs composite films on GCE under mild conditions.

Caveat: The paper does not report a separate post-deposition activation or atmosphere.

p001-p003 · Abstract; Sections 2.2 and 3.1 · Scheme 1 · Linked to 2 structured results

Transport MechanismSupport assessment: Medium

CBZ oxidation on Co-MOFs/CNHs/GCE is adsorption-controlled and follows a two-electron/two-proton process.

Caveat: Electron number is inferred using alpha = 0.5 for an irreversible process.
