▎ 摘　　要

A highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for gallic acid (GA), an important polyphenolic compound, was fabricated using the hybrid material of chitosan (CS), fishbone-shaped Fe2O3 (fFe(2)O(3)), and electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) as the sensing matrix. The electrochemical characterization experiments showed that the CS-fFe(2)O(3)-ERGO modified glassy carbon electrode (CS-fFe(2)O(3)-ERGO/GCE) had large surface area, excellent electronic conductivity and high stability. The GA presented a superior electrochemical response on CS-fFe(2)O(3)-ERGO/GCE in comparison with the single-component modified electrode. The electrochemical mechanism and optimal test conditions of GA on the electrode surface were carefully investigated. Under the optimal conditions, the oxidation peak currents in differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) experiments exhibited a good linear relationship with the logarithmic values of GA concentration over the range from 1.0 x 10(-6) M to 1.0 x 10(-4) M. Based on signal-to-noise (S/N) characteristic of 3, the detection limit was estimated to be 1.5 x 10(-7) M. The proposed sensor has also been applied for estimating the antioxidant capacity index of real samples of red and white wines. (C) 2015 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
