A novel biosensor was fabricated by electrochemical deposition of platinum and gold nanoparticles (nanoAu) with L-Cysteine on glassy carbon electrode. It was found that the nanoAu particle size distribution range was (50-80 nm), and the platinum particle size range was (200-300 nm). The hybrid film could be produced on gold and transparent indium tin oxide electrodes for different kind of studies such as electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical studies. The PtAu hybrid film was applied to the electro catalytic oxidation of dopamine (DA), ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) at pH 4.0 using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) techniques. The modified electrode was quite effective not only to detect DA, AA and UA individually but also in simultaneous determination of these species in a mixture. The overlapping anodic peaks of DA, AA and UA were resolved into three well-defined voltammetric peaks in CV and DPV. The catalytic peak currents obtained from CV and DPV increased linearly with concentration. The relative standard deviation (% R.S.D., n = 10) for AA, DA and UA were less than 2.0% and DA, AA and UA can be determined in the ranges of 0.103-1.65, 0.024-0.384 and 0.021-0.336 mM, respectively. In addition, the modified electrode also shows good sensitivity, and stability. Satisfactory results were achieved for the determination of DA, AA and UA in dopamine injection solution, vitamin C tablets and human urine samples. (c) 2007 Elsevier B.V All rights reserved.
