Abstract: | The synthetic phenolic antioxidant tert-butyl hydroquinone (TBHQ) is frequently associated to adverse health effects. A polymerized film of crystal violet (CV) was prepared on the surface of a glass carbon electrode (GCE) by electropolymerization in alkaline solution, and then the modified electrode was successfully used to determine TBHQ. This electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectra. The voltammetric behavior of TBHQ over an extended pH range using cyclic voltammetry at poly (crystal violet) modified glassy carbon electrode (PCV/GCE) was also studied. The resulting electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of TBHQ, and this was confirmed by the observed increased redox peak currents and shifted potentials. The electrochemical sensor can be applied to the quantification of TBHQ with a linear range covering 5?×?10?7–1?×?10?4 mol?·?L?1 (with a correlation coefficient of 0.9969) and the limit detection was 3?×?10?8 mol?·?L?1(S/N?=?3). The recovery was between 97.1 and 102 % in edible oil samples. The electrochemical sensor method was also compared with a HPLC method, which proves its capability in commercial market surveillance. |
