摘要
In this work, a simple and sensitive electrochemical method was developed to determine Sudan I by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode modified with a chitosan/carbon nanotube composite. In cyclic voltammetry, Sudan I exhibited a well-defined oxidation peak located at 0.72 V at the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/chitosan-modified GCE. The determination conditions, including pH, scan rate, and chitosan: MWCNT mass ratio at the modified electrode, were optimized. Under the optimum experimental conditions, Sudan I could be linearly detected by differential pulse voltammetry with a detection limit of 3.0 × 10-8 mol?L-1.
