Abstract
In this paper, the simultaneous voltammetric determination of ascorbic acid (AA) and rutin (Ru) has been achieved at an acetylene black paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes–chitosan composite film (denoted as MWCNTs–CHIT/ABPE). Compared with bare electrode, the peak currents of AA and Ru at MWCNTs–CHIT/ABPE increased greatly and the anodic peak potential difference (ΔEpa) between AA and Ru are up to 342mV, which is undoubtedly attributed to the unique characteristics of AB and MWCNTs such as excellent electric conductivity, high surface area and strong adsorptive abilities, resulting in higher accumulation efficiency to AA and Ru. The influences of some experimental conditions on the oxidation of AA and Ru were tested and the calibration plot was examined. Under the optimized condition, a good linearity was obtained in the concentration range of 1μM–0.4mM for AA in the presence of 10μM Ru and 20nM–10μM for Ru in the presence of 1mM AA. The detection limits (S/N=3) of AA and Ru are 0.8μM and 10nM, respectively. The proposed method was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of AA and Ru in pharmaceutical samples with reliable recovery.
