Microporous aluminum-based metal-organic frameworks (CAU-1) are used to develop a simple and sensitive electrochemical sensor for myricetin (MYR) based on a modified carbon paste electrode (CPE) for the first time. The morphologies and electrochemical properties of the as-synthesized CAU-1 are studied utilizing various analytical methods including scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, N2 adsorption-desorption, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. In terms of electrochemical oxidation of MYR, CAU-1/CPE with its large number of active micropores and rapid electron transfer demonstrates superior performance compared to the bare CPE. Under optimized conditions, the calibration curve for MYR exhibits a linear range of 1.0-10 μg L-1 and 10-1000 μg L-1 with a detection limit of 0.50 μg L-1. The developed CAU-1/CPE exhibits superior analytical characteristics, compared to previously reported electrochemical sensors for MYR detection. Furthermore, CAU-1/CPE is employed to determine MYR in Myrica bark samples, and the results are consistent with those obtained by high-performance liquid chromatography, demonstrating the excellent potential of CAU-1/CPE for the rapid analysis of MYR in complicated real samples.
