The potential change was directly proportional to the logarithm of concentration of uric acid in the range of 3.73 × 10 8--7.48 × 10-4 mol.L-1 (r=0.9983) with a detection limit of 7.45 × 10-9mol.L-I and a recovery from 98.9% to 101.1%. A comparison between the proposed technique and other methods indicated that results obtained were in agreement with those in clinical detection. In addition, the possible mechanism of action of uric acid on the uncatalyzed BZ reaction was also discussed briefly.展开更多
