Abstract

A simple novel and stable modification procedure for the incorporation of ferro/ferricyanide on to carbon surfaces is reported. By analysis of the voltammetric behaviour of the modified electrode in pure supporting electrolyte it is established that the incorporated species correspond to Prussian blue.
