The oxidative electrochemistry of nicotine is measured in aqueous Solution at a multi-walled carbon nanotube modified basal plane pyrolytic graphite (MWCNT-BPPG) electrode. Quantitative detection of nicotine is obtained with a limit of detection of 1.5 mu M (based on 3 sigma) and a linear range of at least up to I mM. Evidence is found for a mass transport regime that includes thin-layer (within the MWCNT layers) as well as semi-infinite (from bulk solution) diffusional signatures, adding to the growing picture that the fundamental Source of the 'electrocatalytic' properties claimed of many porous and multi-walled carbon nanotube-based modified electrodes may, at least in some cases, be clue to mass transport effects rather than electronic or structural peculiarities of the modifying layers.
