Electrocatalytic Oxidation of Nitric Oxide at Carbon Paste Electrode Modified with Chromium (III) Oxide
Journal Title: JOURNAL OF ADVANCES IN CHEMISTRY - Year 2013, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Chromium (III) oxide was used as a bulk mediator in carbon paste electrodes to improve the better performance of the carbon electrodes for the detection of nitric oxide in comparison with unmodified electrodes. The reaction mechanism of the electrocatalytic oxidation of NO at the modified electrode was studied using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The chemical sensor could be operated under physiological conditions (pH 7.5, 0.1 M phosphate buffer), with an operating potential of 750 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl), in hydrodynamic amperometry. The amperometric response of the sensor showed good linearity up to 200 mmol/L with a detection limit (3σ) of 0.69 mmol/L. The effect of the interferent nitrite was not fatal and could be eliminated by the use of the standard addition method. The new chemical sensor seems also promising to detect NO in car exhaust fumes.
