Poly(pyridine‐3‐boronic acid)/Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes Modified Glassy Carbon Electrodes for Simultaneous Determination of Ascorbic Acid, 3,4‐Dihydroxyphenylacetic Acid and Uric Acid

Abstract

AbstractPoly(pyridine‐3‐boronic acid) (PPBA)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was used for the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid (AA), 3,4‐dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and uric acid (UA). The anodic peaks for AA, DOPAC and UA at the PPBA/MWCNTs/GCE were well resolved in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4). The electrooxidation of AA, DOPAC and UA in the mixture solution was investigated. The peak currents increase with their concentrations increasing. The detection limits (S/N=3) of AA, DOPAC and UA are 5 µM, 3 µM and 0.6 µM, respectively.
