Abstract

The electrochemical behavior of luteolin was studied by voltammetry at a glassy carbon electrode in phosphate buffer solution.The results exhibited that the well-defined redox peak of luteolin is observed and the electrode process is adsorption-controlled.The charge transfer coefficient(α) was calculated as 0.66 in phosphate buffer solution(pH 4.0).The relationships between oxidation peak current and the concentration of luteolin are linear in the range of 1.0×10-8 ~ 5.0×10-6 mol·L-1 by differential pulse voltammetric method.The detection limit had been estimated as 1.0×10-8 molL-1.This method can be used for the determination of luteolin with satisfactory results.
