Abstract

A method for the detection of ascorbic acid (AA) was developed using square wave anodic stripping voltammetric (SWASV) analysis with a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The results indicated a sensitive oxidation peak current of AA on the GCE. A linear curve was obtained within a concentration range of 1-130.0 microg/L with a preconcentration time of 270 s. The relative standard deviation of 30.0 microg/L observed was 0.1016% (n = 12) under optimum conditions. The low detection limit (S/N) was pegged at 0.30 microg/L. Results showed that the method developed can be used to assay biological and pharmaceutical samples, and food samples, as well as other materials requiring AA analyses.
