Abstract:
The current study offers the nanomolar quantification of gallic acid (GAL) based on gold nanoparticles (AuNps) and kaolinite minerals (KNT) modified on a screen-printed electrode (SPE). The electrochemical behavior of GAL was performed using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) in Britton Robinson (BR) buffer solution at pH 2.0 as a supporting electrolyte. Under the optimized DPV mode parameters, the oxidation peak current of GAL (at 0.72 V vs Ag/AgCl) increased linearly in the range between 0.002 μmolL-1 and 40.0 μmolL-1 with a detection limit of 0.50 nmolL-1. The effect of common interfering agents was also investigated. Finally, the applicability of the proposed method was verified by quantification analysis of GAL in black tea and pomegranate juice samples.
