Simultaneous electropolymerization and deposition of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene and poly(styrene sulfonate) (EDOT and PSS) on a microplatinum electrode (μPtE) surface was performed. The surface area of the electrode was varied by changing the length: 10 mm and 5 mm with a fixed diameter of 50 μm. Electropolymerization of EDOT:PSS to poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrene sulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) was conducted using galvanostatic mode in a potentiostat/galvanostat at 100 μA and 400 mV.

Field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM) results revealed the effect of liquid media on PEDOT:PSS film deposited on a higher surface area before and after measurement. Although anodic peak current did not change significantly for electrode lengths of 10 mm and 5 mm (~0.20 mA) on day one, the stability of current measurements (anodic peak current at day six in comparison to day one) decreased by 20% and 85% for 10 and 5 mm electrode lengths, respectively.
