Sumario:A novel electrode modified with silver nanoparticles was fabricated. It is found that the reducibility of silver nanoparticles is higher than for bulk silver by comparing a silver nanoparticles modified electrode with a silver micro-disk electrode. When SCN(-) was added, a new oxidation peak occurred and the anodic peak current of silver nanoparticles decreased. The new anodic peak current is proportional to the thiocyanate concentration in the range of 5.0×10(-7)∼4.0×10(-4) mol/L in pH 6.0 NaH(2)PO(4)-Na(2)HPO(4) buffer solutions (PBS). The detection limit (S/N=3) is 4×10(-8) mol/L. This method has been applied to the determination of saliva (smoker and non-smoker).
