Abstract

A polymer-modified electrode was fabricated by the electropolymerisation of pyrrole from an ethanol solution using sodium dodecylsulfate as a dopant. The modified electrode is a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for dopamine with a limit of detection measured as 3.8 x 10-8 mol dm-3. The sensor did not sense the common interferant ascorbic acid showing a single redox peak for dopamine in the presence of excess ascorbic acid.
