Summary: | Commercially available gold screen-printed electrodes cured at high temperature were modified or functionalized at the surface with gold nanoparticles, mainly produced by a green synthesis method, and other carbon-based nanomaterials in order to enhance the electron transfer between the sulfhydryl groups of the aminothiols cysteine (Cys), methionine (Met), glutathione (GSH) and homocysteine (hCys) and the electrode. The electrochemical characterization by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry of some of the modified electrodes showed an improved performance in terms of sensitivity, reproducibility, repeatability, linearity range and limits of detection (12, 1, 0.2 and 1μmolL−1 for Cys, Met, GSH, hCys, respectively) and quantification (40, 2, 0.5 and 2μmolL−1 for Cys, Met, GSH, hCys, respectively) as compared to unmodified units. Then, some of these modified devices were successfully applied to the determination of cysteine and methionine in dietary supplements by means of liquid chromatography with amperometric detection.
