Abstract:

Gold nanoparticles were bio-synthesized by the lotus leaf extract. The Au multiwalled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs)/L-cysteine(L-Cys) composite material was prepared. The electrochemical behavior of levodopa at the modified electrode was studied. In 0.2 mol/L HAc-NaAc(pH=2.6) buffer, levodopa concentration was linear with oxidation peak current in the range of 0.6—40 and 60—120 μmol/L, and the detection limit was 5.2×10-8 mol/L(S/N=3). The results show that the Au/MWCNTs/L-Cys modified electrode has good stability and high sensitivity. It has a satisfactory result to determine the effective component of real sample with the recovery of standard addition was between 91.2%—102.5%.
