Abstract
AbstractThis report presents a new application for yttrium oxide (YOX) in the modification of carbon paste electrodes with excellent electroactivity for the independent detection of dopamine (DA) and ascorbic acid (AA). The surface of the YOX‐modified electrode was characterized with SEM and EDS. The electroactive properties of DP and AA were studied with cyclic voltammetry (CV), square wave voltammetry (SWV) and amperometry (Am). The activity of DA and AA increased by more than 100 % when YOX/CPE was used, which allowed us to obtain detection limits of 0.04 and 0.06 μmol/L for DA and AA, respectively. The usefulness of YOX/CPE was tested with real human urine, fresh orange juice and vitamin C tablets, and the results were acceptable.
