Abstract
A cresol red modified glassy carbon electrode was prepared using an electrochemical method. The cyclic voltammograms of the modified electrode indicate the presence of a couple of well-defined redox peaks, and the formal potential shifts in the negative direction with increasing solution pH. The modified electrode exhibits high electrocatalytic activity toward ascorbic acid oxidation, with an overpotential of 300 mV less than that of bare glassy carbon electrodes, and drastic enhancement of the anodic currents. The calibration graph obtained by linear sweep voltammetry for ascorbic acid is linear in the range of 50∼500 µM. The electrode markedly enhances the current response of dopamine and can separate the electrochemical responses of ascorbic acid and dopamine. The separation between the anodic peak potentials of ascorbic acid and dopamine is 190 mV by cyclic voltammetry. The linear sweep voltammetric peak currents for dopamine in the presence of 2 mM ascorbic acid vary linearly with a concentration of between 10 and 100 µM.
