Anodic Stripping Voltammetric Analysis of Trace Arsenic(III) on a Au-Stained Au Nanoparticles/Pyridine/Carboxylated Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes/Glassy Carbon Electrode.

ABSTRACT: A Au-stained Au nanoparticle (Au_s)/pyridine (Py)/carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (C-MWCNTs)/glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was prepared for the sensitive analysis of As(III) by cast-coating of C-MWCNTs on a GCE, electroreduction of 4-cyanopyridine (cPy) to Py, adsorption of gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), and gold staining. The Py/C-MWCNTs/GCE can provide abundant active surface sites for the stable loading of AuNPs and then the AuNPs-initiated Au staining in HAuCl₄ + NH₂OH solution, giving a large surface area of Au on the Au_s/Py/C-MWCNTs/GCE for the linear sweep anodic stripping voltammetry (LSASV) analysis of As(III). At a high potential-sweep rate of 5 V s^-1, sharp two-step oxidation peaks of As(0) to As(III) and As(III) to As
