Electrocatalytic Property Toward Dopamine and Uric Acid of the Nanoparticles TiO₂ Modified Electrode

Abstract:

The titanium sol was prepared by depositing the organic titanium on glassy carbon electrode surface. Electrophoresis time and the applied voltage as well can markedly influence the electrochemical behavior of the nanoTiO₂ film. In contrast with bare glassy carbon electrode, the nanoTiO₂ film on glassy carbon electrode had a good electrocatalytic activity to dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) in PBS solution. The result showed that there was a linear relationship between the oxidation peak currents and the concentration of DA from 8.0×10^-6 to 4.0×10^-4 mol·L^-1 by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and there was a linear relationship between the oxidation peak currents and the concentration of UA from 8×10^-6 to 1.0×10^-3 mol·L^-1. This modified electrode was quite effective to detect DA and UA in simultaneous determination of these species in a mixture.
