Abstract Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) derivatized with cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPh) were applied onto screen-printed graphite electrodes (SPEs) to be used for the low-potential electrochemical oxidation of thiocholine (TCh). Covalent attachment of CoPh to SWCNTs via stable sulfonamide bonds was confirmed by Raman/FT-IR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) coupled with FT-IR detection. The resulting modified SPE surfaces (CoPh-SWCNT-SPEs) were characterized by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) with the redox probe [F(3)(CN)(6)](3-/4-). Detection of TCh was accomplished using cyclic voltammetry and amperometry; a lower overpotential (100 mV vs. Ag/AgCl pseudoreference electrode) was obtained using CoPh-SWCNT-SPEs as compared to unmodified SPEs and SPEs modified with non-functionalized SWCNTs (SWCNT-SPEs). The linear range for TCh detection was 0.077-0.45 mM, with a sensitivity of 5.11 x 10(-1) mu A mM(-1) and a limit of detection of 0.038 mM according to the 3 s/m definition. (C) 2011 Elsevier Ltd.
