In this study, an environmentally friendly and cost-effective sensor made up of novel carbon electrode modified with cellulose and hydroxyapatite was developed for the detection of trace lead ions in aqueous system and palm oil mill effluent. Zinc, cadmium, and copper with lead were simultaneously detected using this method. The electrode exhibited high tolerance towards twelve common metal ions and three model surface active substances - sodium dodecyl sulfate, Triton X-100, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide. Under optimum conditions, the sensor detected lead ions in palm oil mill effluent in the concentration range of 10�50 μg/L with 0.11 ± 0.37 μg/L limit of detection and 0.37 ± 0.37 μg/L limit of quantification. The validation using tap water, blood serum and palm oil mill effluent samples and compared with Atomic Absorption Spectroscopy, suggested excellent sensitivity of the sensor to detect lead ions in simple and complex matrices. The cellulose produced based on �green� techniques from agro-lignocellulosic wastes, in combination with hydroxyapatite, were proven effective as components in the carbon electrode composite. It has great potential in both clinical and environmental use. © 2019 Elsevier Inc. date: 2019 publisher: Academic Press Inc. official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85068251889&doi=10.1016%2fj.envres.2019.108563&partnerID=40&md5=fe2206f370ab1c33f41c3946f70aceed id_number: 10.1016/j.envres.2019.108563 full_text_status: none publication: Environmental Research volume: 176 refereed: TRUE issn: 00139351 citation: Ajab, H. and Ali Khan, A.A. and Nazir, M.S. and Yaqub, A. and Abdullah, M.A. (2019) Cellulose-hydroxyapatite carbon electrode composite for trace plumbum ions detection in aqueous and palm oil mill effluent: Interference, optimization and validation studies.
