Abstract

Porous gold nanosheets modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was facilely prepared by one-step electrodeposition, using N-methylimidazole as a growth-directing agent. The porous gold nanosheets modified GCE was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy. The modified electrode displayed improved sensitivity for individual and simultaneous differential pulse voltammetric determination of dopamine (DA; at 180 mV) and acetaminophen (AC; at 450 mV vs. Ag/AgCl) even in the presence of ascorbic acid. The oxidation peak currents linearly increased with the concentrations of DA and AC in the ranges from 2.0 to 298.0 μM and 3.0 to 320.0 μM, respectively, and the detection limits are 0.28 μM for DA and 0.23 μM for AC. The relative standard deviations (n = 20) are 1.5 % for DA and 0.4 % for AC.
