Abstract :
Dopamine (DA) is one of the most important catecholamine neurotransmitters in the human central nervous system of the brain playing
a key role in the functioning of the renal, hormonal, and cardiovascular systems. Abnormal levels of dopamine are related to neurological
disorders, such as schizophrenia and Parkinson’s disease. Accordingly, the control and fluctuations of the amount of dopamine are
extremely important in monitoring the analytical systems in the human brain. This review covers the different electrochemical sensors for
the determination of dopamine as neurotransmitter and points out the advantages and disadvantages of them.
