Abstract
A novel electrochemical sensor for sensitive determination of ampyra (Am) based on graphene nanoribbons modified by iron-platinum bimetallic nanoparticles and uric acid (SPCE/FePtGNR/UA) dropped on the screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) surface and magnetically captured onto an SPCE working electrode surface is reported in the present work. The modified nanocomposite and sensing layer was characterized by different techniques, including cyclic voltammetry (CV), linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and X-ray powdered diffraction (XRD). Am determination by conventional electrochemical methods is not possible, because of its high redox overpotential. Therefore, the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) signals of UA were used as a redox probe for indirect electrochemical determination of Am. The limit of detection (LOD) and linear concentration range were obtained as 0.028 and 0.08–9.0µmolL−1 (3Sb/m = 3), respectively. The feasibility of the proposed method was examined by the detection of Am in biological and pharmaceutical samples with satisfactory results. The constructed electrochemical sensor was applied for fast, simple and sensitive detection of Am in real environments.
