Graphite impurities cause the observed 'electrocatalysis' seen at C-60 modified glassy carbon electrodes in respect of the oxidation of L-cysteine

The recently reported claims of electrocatalysis using C60 film modified glassy carbon electrodes [W.T. Tan, A.M. Bond, S.W. Ngooi, E.B. Lim, J.K. Goh, Anal. Chim. Acta 491 (2003) 181] for the oxidation of l-cysteine are questioned. We show that C60 itself is not electrocatalytic at the potentials c...
