Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs), which form highly ordered monolayers on the electrode surface through the gold-suffer bond, have attracted much attention in recent years. This stable layer not only can regulate the wettable properties of surface, but also can act as a promoter towards redox-active molecules. Here, we developed a simple and effective method to construct cysteine and cystamine co-self-assembled monolayer on gold microelectrode for in vivo detection of ascorbic acid (AA). The molar ratio at 1:1 of mixed monolayer has been found the optimum to enhance the electron-transfer kinetics of AA oxidation at low potential (ca. 0.10 V), meanwhile, it …
