T1 - Conductometric transducing in electrocatalytical sensors: Detection of ascorbic acid T2 - Electrochemistry Communications N2 - Conductometric transducing is suggested for electrocatalytic chemical sensors based on conductive polymers. Lateral conductivity of the polymer layers was measured by two- and four-point techniques. The approach was applied for electroanalytical detection of ascorbic acid on the electrocatalytically active polyaniline and poly-ortho-methoxyaniline electrodes. Both polymers displayed a monotonous concentration dependence of their conductance in the analytically important sub-millimolar concentration range of ascorbic acid. The approach was tested in model solutions of ascorbic acid in buffer and applied for detection of ascorbic acid in orange juice.
