Voltammetric determination of cysteine using carbon paste electrode modified with Co(II)-Y zeolite

A novel zeolite modified electrode for use in voltammetric determination of l-cysteine (CySH) was described. The electrode comprises a Co(II)-exchanged zeolite Y as modifier in carbon paste matrix. First, the electrochemical behavior of Co(II) in modified carbon paste electrode was studied. The results demonstrated that diffusion can control the redox process of cobalt cations at the surface of the modified electrode. Then, the behavior of the...
