This work compares pulse and cyclic voltammetry deposition of Au particles on boron doped diamond electrodes for determination of nitrite. Gold particles of different sizes from nanometer to submicron with different morphologies from sphere to star shape are obtained using different deposit parameters for optimization of nitrite detection. The nitrite sensing experiments via the amperometry method show that a better limit of detection for gold particles decorated by the pulse deposition, thus demonstrating a benefit of using this method for electroanalysis.
