Graphite/SrPdO 3 was utilized for the sensitive determination of some neurotransmitters, namely dopamine (DA), epinephrine (EP), norepinephrine (NE), serotonin (ST), 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and L-dopa. Graphite/SrPdO 3 exhibited higher electrocatalytic activity toward the studied neurotransmitters compared to bare graphite. It was confirmed that graphite electrode was more suitable substrate for immobilization of SrPdO 3 perovskite compared to other surfaces. Moreover, simultaneous determinations of L-dopa, ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) or ST were achieved with large peak potential separation. The linear response for L-dopa was obtained in the range of 0.6 μmol L −1 to 9 μmol L −1 with correlation coefficient 0.996 and detection limit 1.63 nmol L −1 . The proposed composite sensor exhibited high reproducibility, enhanced sensitivity, selectivity, anti-interference ability, unique long-term stability (over two months) and applicability in the human urine samples with satisfying results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
