<正>The electrochemistry behavior of dopamine was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry at a poly (gallic acid) film modified glassy carbon electrode.Two electrons and two protons participated in the diffusion-controlled electrocatalytic oxidation of dopamine with a diffusion coefficient of 2.186×10~(-5) cm~2/s.The interference of ascorbic acid with the determination of dopamine could be efficiently eliminated.This work provided a simple approach to selectively and sensitively detect dopamine in the presence of high concentration of ascorbic acid.     

Silver Doped Poly(L‐valine) Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode for the Simultaneous Determination of Uric Acid,Ascorbic Acid and Dopamine

In this paper, a silver doped poly(L ‐valine) (Ag‐PLV) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was fabricated through electrochemical immobilization and was used to electrochemically detect uric acid (UA), dopamine (DA) and ascorbic acid (AA) by linear sweep voltammetry. In pH 4.0 PBS, at a scan rate of 100 mV/s, the modified electrode gave three separated oxidation peaks at 591 mV, 399 mV and 161 mV for UA, DA and AA, respectively. The peak potential differences were 238 mV and 192 mV. The electrochemical behaviors of them at the modified electrode were explored in detail with cyclic voltammetry. Under the optimum conditions, the linear ranges were 3.0×10^?7 to 1.0×10^?5 M for UA, 5.0×10^?7 to 1.0×10^?5 M for DA and 1.0×10^?5 to 1.0×10^?3 M for AA, respectively. The method was successfully applied for simultaneous determination of UA, DA and AA in human urine samples.     

Differentiation of Detection of Ascorbic Acid and Dehydroascorbic Acid Using Hydrodynamic Amperometry and Anodic Stripping Voltammetry on Modified Aluminum Electrodes

An electroanalytical strategy for the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid (AA) and dehydroascorbic acid (DHA), is described. A palladized Al electrode is used for hydrodynamic amperometry of AA. While the decrease of anodic stripping voltammetry current of the K₂UO₂[Fe(CN)₆]‐Pd/Al electrode prepared in the presence of DHA was the principal of the DHA determination. The calibration graph for both methods was linear over the concentration range 1–50 μM. The detection limit was found to be 0.5 μM. Some fresh fruit juices and vegetables of trace level of AA and DHA were analyzed as the typical example of application.     

Simultaneous Determination of Ascorbic Acid,Dopamine and Uric Acid at Pt Nanoparticles Decorated Multiwall Carbon Nanotubes Modified GCE

A modified electrode was fabricated by electrochemically deposition of Pt nanoparticles on the multiwall carbon nanotube covered glassy carbon electrode (Pt nanoparticles decorated MWCNT/GCE). A higher catalytic activity was obtained to electrocatalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid, dopamine, and uric acid due to the enhanced peak current and well‐defined peak separations compared with both, bare and MWCNT/GCE. The electrode surfaces were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Individual and simultaneous determination of AA, DA, and UA were studied by differential pulse voltammetry. The detection limits were individually calculated for ascorbic acid, dopamine, and uric acid as being 1.9×10^?5 M, 2.78×10^?8 M, and 3.2×10^?8 M, respectively. In simultaneous determination, LODs were calculated for AA, DA, and UA, as of 2×10^?5 M, 4.83×10^?8 M, and 3.5×10^?7 M, respectively.     

Simultaneous Differential Pulse Voltammetric Determination of Ascorbic Acid and Caffeine in Pharmaceutical Formulations Using a Boron‐Doped Diamond Electrode

A cathodically pretreated boron‐doped diamond electrode was used for the simultaneous anodic determination of ascorbic acid (AA) and caffeine (CAF) by differential pulse voltammetry. Linear calibration curves (r=0.999) were obtained from 1.9×10^?5 to 2.1×10^?4 mol L^?1 for AA and from 9.7×10^?6 to 1.1×10^?4 mol L^?1 for CAF, with detection limits of 19 μmol L^?1 and 7.0 μmol L^?1, respectively. This method was successfully applied for the determination of AA and CAF in pharmaceutical formulations, with results equal to those obtained using a HPLC reference method.     

A New Spectrophotometric Method for the Determination of Ascorbic Acid Using Leuco Malachite Green

A new simple and sensitive and selective spectrophotometric method has been developed for the determination of ascorbic acid (AA) at trace level using a new reagent, leuco malachite green (LMG). AAreacts with potassium iodide‐iodate solution under acidic conditions to liberate iodine and the liberated iodine selectively oxidizes LMG to MG dye. The colour of the dye was measured at 620 nm. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration range of 0.8–8 iμg μAA per 25 mL of final solution (0.032–0.32 ppm). The apparent molar absorptivity and Sandell's sensitivity of the method were found to be 2.98 × 10⁵ l mol⁻¹ cm⁻¹, 0.0042 μg cm⁻², and respectively. Statistical treatment of the experimental results indicates that the method is precise and accurate. The method is free from interference of common ions and many of the ingredients commonly found in pharmaceuticals. The reliability of the method was established by parallel determination against Leucocrystal violet (LCV) method. The method described was satisfactorily applied for the determination of AA in fruit juices, pharmaceuticals and biological samples.

Direct Determination of Trace Dopamine in an Ascorbic Acid Solution at a Bare Glassy Carbon Electrode Using Differential Pulse Voltammetry

It is difficult to monitor dopamine (DA) accurately with a bare glassy carbon electrode because of the interference of ascorbic acid (AA). In this paper, a method for the determination of DA in an AA solution using differential pulse voltammetry was established. Because AA loses its electrochemical activity after being oxidized, hydrogen peroxide was used to oxidize AA, and the interference of AA was completely eliminated. As a result, trace DA could be directly determined in the AA solution with a bare glassy carbon electrode. When trace DA was determined in a 1.0 mmol L^?1 AA solution, there was a wide linear range from 3.0×10^?8 mol L^?1 to 1.0×10^?5 mol L^?1. The application of this method was demonstrated by the selective measurement of DA in an injection without pretreatment.
