Abstract:The chemically modified silica gel with 3-aminopropyltrimethoxysilane groups and EDTA was used to immobilize ruthenium complex initially. These materials were incorporated into a carbon paste electrode and its electrochemical properties were investigated. However, for ascorbic acid solution, an enhancement of the anodic peak current was detected due to electrocatalytic oxidation. The electrodes presented good repeatability, stability and reproducible. The sensors were applied in ascorbic acid determination in industrial fruit juice with success.
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.
