Abstract
Here the present work briefly discussed the synthesis of sulfur-doped graphene (SDG)
for accurate determination of individual and simultaneous quantification of ascorbic
acid (AA) and dopamine (DA). SDG catalyst material was prepared by using a hydrothermal
technique using a carbon and sulfur source. The structural properties of SDG and
its associated materials are examined using Raman spectroscopy; FT-IR analysis and
morphological studies were examined using high-end FE-SEM and HR-TEM, atomic force
microscopy and water contact angle dimensions.
Further, SDG material-modified glassy carbon electrode (SDG/GCE) is employed to
estimate the accurate quantification of DA and AA experienced through cyclic voltammetry,
as well as chronoamperometry to examine the charge transfer properties at SDG. The
modified electrode SDG/GCE showed finite selectivity, sensitivity and low limit
of detection, with a regression coefficient value of 0.99 for DA and AA correspondingly.
On the other hand, the proposed has finite stability with a retention capacity of
almost 95 % after 12 days.
