AbstractA semi conducting polymer‐modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated by cyclically sweeping in the potential range of −0.4–1.2 V(vs. SCE) or by electrolyzation at constant potential of 1.4 V in 0.5 M sulfuric acid solution containing 1.0 mM Nile Blue. This redox active polymer could successfully be used for the amperometric determination of hemoglobin. The effect of pH was studied for the polymerization of Nile Blue. It was found that the polymerization did not occur in neutral or basic solutions. The formal potential of this film is −410 mV (pH 7.0) which is more negative than that obtained at the bare electrode in the Nile Blue bulk solution. The electrochemical characteristics of this polymer are discussed. The modified electrode could electrocatalyze the reduction of hemoglobin, and a good linear amperometric response could be obtained over the range of 0.05–7.0 mg/mL (correlation coefficient: 0.985). This modified electrode exhibited good stability and reproducibility for long
