%X This work describes a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified by 4-((E)-(2-methyl-4-nitrophenylimino)methyl)benzene-1,2-diol (abbreviated as MBD) and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWNT) as an electrochemical sensor for monitoring of levodopa (LD) concentration. Different electrochemical pa-rameters of MBD were obtained at MWCNT-GCE by cyclic voltammetry. Also the electrocatalytic behavior of LD was investigated at the MBD-MWNT-GCE by cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and differen-tial pulse voltammetry. Using the electrocatalysis of LD V in phosphate buffer solution pH 7.0 on this modified electrode it is possible to obtain a linear calibration curve from 5.0¡Á10 7 to 9.0¡Á10 4 M and a de-tection limit of 0.37 ¦ÌM for LD by differential pulse voltammetry. The electrode was successfully applied for determination of LD in real sample.
