An electrocatalytic screen-printed amperometric sensor for the selective measurement of thiamine (Vitamin B1) in food supplements (2019)
Journal Article
Smart, A., Westmacott, K. L., Crew, A., Doran, O., & Hart, J. P. (2019). An electrocatalytic screen-printed amperometric sensor for the selective measurement of thiamine (Vitamin B1) in food supplements. Biosensors, 9(3), Article 98. https://doi.org/10.3390/bios9030098

An electrocatalytic screen-printed sensor has been investigated for the measurement of the biologically important biomolecule vitamin B1 (thiamine) for the first time in food supplements. Under basic conditions, the vitamin was converted to its elect...
