Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as an excellent supporter covered with a thick layer of cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) were prepared by in-situ synthesis. Platinum particles were adopted to enhance the conductivity of CoPc-MWCNTs. The final nanocomposite Pt-CoPc-MWCNTs was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Strong aromatic π-π stacking between MWCNTs and CoPc made CoPc in-situ forming on MWCNTs. With homogeneous thickness of CoPc covered on the MWCNTs and Pt particles equally distributed, the nanocomposite was used as electrocatalyst. The electrochemical properties of the composite got researched by casting the dispersion of Pt-CoPc-MWCNTs on the glassy carbon electrode. Compared with other modified electrodes, Pt-CoPc-MWCNTs/GC electrode exhibited excellent electrochemical activity towards dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). Linear responses for DA and UA were obtained in the ranges of 5 to 170 μM and 5 to 100 μM, and limits of detection were 2.6 and 1.4 μM (S/N= 3), respectively. Simultaneous detection of DA and UA in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA) also displayed selective property, with no interference to each other.
