Abstract
A bacteria-modified carbon paste electrode has been prepared and used for the very sensitive and selective determination of trace amounts of gold(III). The modified electrode was able to detect a solution of 1.0 ppb Au(III) by applying cathodic stripping voltammetry. Advantages of the bacteria-modified electrode include high sensitivity, good stability, low cost and simple preparation. It could be a new class of modified electrode with practical value.
