Abstract
A pyrolytic method is described for preparation of ultrafine Fe3C nanoparticles incorporated into N-doped graphitic carbon nanosheets (Fe3C@NGCSs). Iron phthalocyanine and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) are used as starting materials. The hybrid nanocomposite was placed on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and then applied to simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA), uric acid (UA) and xanthine (XA). Figures of merits are as follows: for AA, the linear response range covers the 54.0-5491.0μM range, the lower detection limit is 16.7μM, and the best working voltage (vs. the saturated calomel electrode (SCE)) is 0.05V. The respective data for DA are 1.2-120.8μM, 0.34μM and 0.19V (vs. SCE). For UA, the respective data are 4.8-263.0μM, 1.4μM and 0.32V (vs. SCE), and for XA the data are 4.8-361.0μM, 1.5μM and 0.71V (vs. SCE). The method was successfully applied to their simultaneous determination in spiked serum samples.
