Overoxidized poly-(1,2-phenylenediamine) (OPPD)-coated carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMEs) exhibit, in combination with square-wave voltammetry (SWV) detection mode, the attractive ability to simultaneously measure low nM dopamine (DA) and mM ascorbate (AA) in a pH 7.4 medium. The PPD polymer film is electrodeposited onto a carbon fiber at a constant potential of 0.8 V versus Ag/AgCl using a solution containing sodium dodecylsulfate as the dopant. After overoxidation using cyclic voltammetry (CV) in the potential range from 0 to 2.2 V at a scan rate of 10 V/s, the resulting OPPD-CFME displays a high SWV current response to cationic DA at approximately 0.2 V and has a favorably low response to anionic AA at approximately 0.0 V vs Ag/AgCl. The preparation of the new OPPD-sensing film has been carefully studied and optimized. The OPPD properties and behavior were characterized using CV and SWV under various conditions and are discussed with respect to DA and AA detection. The linear calibration range for DA in the presence of 0.3 mM AA is 50 nM to 10 microM, with a correlation coefficient of 0.998 and a detection limit of 10 nM using 45-s accumulation. The detection limit for DA in the absence of AA was estimated to be 2 nM (S/N = 3). The linear range for AA in the presence of 100 nM DA is 0.2-2 mM, with a correlation coefficient of 0.999 and a detection limit of 80 microM. The reproducibilities of SWV measurements at OPPD-CFCMEs are 1.6% and 2.5% for 100 nM DA and 0.3 mM AA, r...
