In this article, we developed specific sensing of chloramphenicol (CAP) using strontium selenium nanoflower-adorned phosphorus-doped graphitic carbon nitride (Sr@Se/PGCN) nanocomposite. The synthesized Sr@Se/PGCN nanocomposite was characterized using spectrophotometric techniques. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS), Cyclic Voltammetry (CV), and Differential Pulse Voltammetry (DPV) were used to examine the electrochemical performance of Sr@Se/PGCN nanocomposite. The Sr@Se/PGCN composite shows excellent performance with a linear range of 5–450 µM and an LOD of 2.7 nM. Furthermore, the present electrochemical CAP sensor exhibited high sensitivity, good stability, exceptional reproducibility, and an excellent recovery rate in real food samples.
