Electrochemical determination of bisphenol A at Mg–Al–CO3 layered double hydroxide modified glassy carbon electrode

Abstract The electrochemical behavior of bisphenol A (BPA) was investigated on Mg–Al layered double hydroxide (LDH) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and chronocoulometry (CC). The cyclic voltammogram of BPA on the modified electrode exhibited a well defined anodic peak at 0.454 V in 0.1 M pH 8.0 phosphate buffer solution (PBS). The experimental parameters were optimized and the kinetic parameters were investigated. The probable oxidation mechanism was proposed. Under the optimized conditions, the oxidation peak current was proportional to BPA concentration in the range from 1 × 10 −8 to 1.05 × 10 −6  M with the correlation coefficient of 0.9959. The detection limit was 5.0 × 10 −9  M (S/N = 3). The fabricated electrode showed good reproducibility, stability and anti-interference. The proposed method was successfully applied to determine BPA in plastic products and the results were satisfactory.
