Electroactive poly mers have been an area of immens e interest over the past ۳۰ years sin ce the first discovery of conducting polyacetyle ne in ۱۹۷۷ by Shirakawa et al. Extensive research on several conjugated polymers including poly (p-phenylene), poly aniline (PANi), polypyrrole, polythiophene, po lyindole, an d their substituted derivatives have led to their applicatio ns in rechargeable batt eries, micro electronics, sensors, electrochromic displays, light-emitting and photo voltaic devices. Among the various conjugate d polymers, PANi has received s pecial recog nition owin g to its goo d stability and interesting redox behavior. C arbon nano tubes (CNTs) are an important group of nanomaterials with unique electronic and chemical prope rties. [۱]. Folic acid, N-[p-{[(۲-amino-۴-hydroxy-۶-pteridinyl) methyl] ami no} benzoyl]-l-glutamic acid,is chosen at the analyte for this investigation because it is an electroactive compone nt of consid erable biolo gical importance [۲].
