In this study, a composite comprising a rare-earth metal, samarium vanadate (SmVO4, SmV), anchored to halloysite nanotube (HNT) 

making SmV/HNT nanocomposite is synthesized for the sensitive electrochemical determination of furaltadone (FLD) through 

differential pulse voltammetry analysis based on the synergistic effect of SmV/HNT (the catalytic activity and chemical stability of SmV, 

which was further boosted by the improved surface area and conductance of HNT). Further, in the microscopic studies, it is revealed 

that SmV exhibits a tetragonal zircon-type crystalline structure, with I41/amd (141) space group, whereas HNT comprises a multiphase

kaolin composition as a gibbsite-like octahedral sheet with multivalency, and the morphological irregularities of the individual 

constituents are rectified in the composite. The SmV/HNT composite is spray-coated on polyethylene terephthalate sheet, which 

delivered a promising trace level limit of detection (0.009 μM) over a wide working range (0.05– 194.4 μM) for FLD. Furthermore, real

sample analysis is performed using human serum, and pharmaceutical tablet and the results reveal exceptional repeatability and 

sensitivity, indicating the real-time application of SmV/HNT in the pharmaceutical domain.
