▎ 摘　　要

An innovative, ternary nanocomposite composed of overoxidized poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (OPEDOT), gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (ERGO) was prepared on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) (OPEDOT-AuNPs-ERGO/GCE) through homogeneous chemical reactions and heterogeneous electrochemical methods. The morphology, composition, and structure of this nanocomposite were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The electrochemical properties of the OPEDOT-AuNPs-ERGO/GCE were investigated by cyclic voltammetry using potassium ferricyanide and hexaammineruthenium(III) chloride redox probe systems. This modified electrode shows excellent electro-catalytic activity for dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) under physiological pH conditions, but inhibits the oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA). Linear voltammetric responses were obtained when DA concentrations of approximately 4.0-100 mM and UA concentrations of approximately 20 -100 mM were used. The detection limits (S/N1/43) for DA and UA were 1.0 and 5.0 mM, respectively, under physiological conditions and in the presence of 1.0 mM of AA. This developed method was applied to the simultaneous detection of DA and UA in human urine, where satisfactory recoveries from 96.7% to 105.0% were observed. This work demonstrates that the developed OPEDOT-AuNPs-ERGO ternary nanocomposite, with its excellent ion-selectivity and electro-catalytic activity, is a promising candidate for the simultaneous detection of DA and UA in the presence of AA in physiological and pathological studies.
