Theoretical Description for Psilocin and Coprine Electrochemical Determination in Mushroom Pulp and Biological Liquids over Cobalt (II) Oxyhydroxide-Modified Electrode

The possibility of the electrochemical determination of poisonous mushroom toxins psilocin and coprine on CoO(OH)-modified electrode has been evaluated theoretically. The analysis of the correspondent mathematical model confirms the efficiency of the electrochemical sensor for detecting both mycotoxins in mushrooms and biological liquids for either investigation or diagnostic purposes. The linear dependence between the concentration of both of the analytes is established in a wide concentration range, providing an excellent analytical signal interpretation.
