Abstract
AbstractWe report the combination of the charge repelling property of tetraphenyl‐borate (TPB) anion and the electrooxidation catalytic effect of cobalt(II) tetrakisphenylporphyrin (CoTPP) embedded in a sol gel ceramic film to develop a modified glassy carbon electrode (CoTPP‐TPB‐SGGCE) for the simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). The optimized CoTPP‐TPB‐SGGCE shows excellent sensitivity and selectivity for the DA and UA analysis. As high as 2000 fold acceptable tolerance of ascorbic acid (AA) for the determination of trace DA and UA is reached. In the presence of 0.10 mM AA, the linear concentration range for DA is from 6.0×10−8 to 2.5×10−5 M, and the detection limit is 2.0×10−8 M. For UA, the linear concentration range is from 1.0×10−7 to 3.5×10−5 M, and the detection limit is 7.0×10−8 M. Our study has also demonstrated that the novel CoTPP‐TPB‐SGGCE shows high stability and reliability. For 6.00 μM DA and UA, a total of 12 measurements were taken in one week, and the relative standard deviation is 2.05% and 2.68% respectively. No obvious shift of peak current and peak potential is observed over a three‐month lifetime test. The response of the sensor is very quick and response time is approximately 1 s. Satisfactory results are also achieved when the CoTPP‐TPB‐SGGCEs being used to detect the DA and UA in human urine samples.
