Voltammetric Determination of Aflatoxin B1

Abstract

For the first time the possibility of voltammetry used for the determination of aflatoxin B1 on a glassy carbon electrode was shown. The effect of pH of a supporting electrolyte on the analytical signal of aflatoxin B1 has been investigated and it was shown that there is a more pronounced peak with a maximum current at pH of 5.33. The most favorable supporting electrolyte for a linear range of detectable concentrations of aflatoxin B1 – 0.1 M (NH[4])[2]SO[4] was determined. The results of research on the development of conditions of voltammetric measurement of aflatoxin B1 are presented.
