Surface modified electrodes have been used to study the seed of A. digitata. The results show the ascorbic acid redox peak is greatly enhanced and the oxidation/reduction peaks coincide with those of the corresponding chemical standard. It is also shown that ascorbic acid adsorbs onto the clay-modified electrode.
