A sensitive and straightforward sensor consisting of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) containing carbonquantum dots (CQDs), and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs), was fabricated for simultaneous detection ofascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA) as well as uric acid (UA). Composite AuNPs/CQDs/GCE and itscomponents were examined using high-resolution transmission and field emission scanning electronmicroscopies (HRTEM and FESEM, respectively), energy-dispersive and electrochemical impedance(spectroscopies EDS and EIS, respectively), as well as cyclic voltammetry (CV). The synergetic effect,of AuNPs and CQDs provided GCE with an outstanding electrocatalytic rate and excellent selectivitytowards AA, DA, and UA oxidation in 0.1M PBS. The linear response ranges of the electrodes were300-700 and 800-3500 μM for AA, 2-32 μM for DA, and 30-100 and 120-200 μM for UA. The peakpotential separation values (ΔEp) of AA-DA, DA-UA, and AA-UA pairs were equal to 150, 130, and280 mV, respectively. The sensitivity of AuNPs/CQDs/GCE was 0.012 and 0.0057 μA/μM towards AA,405.13 μA/μM towards DA, as well as 0.148 and 0.044 μA/μM towards UA. Our electrochemical sensorshowed excellent stability, analysis reproducibility, and repeatability..
