The gold electrode was modified by noisomes, prepared by sonicating the mixed solution of PEG 6000/Tween 80/Span 80/H 2 O. Electrochemical cyclic voltammetry (CV) and impedance spectroscopy (EIS) were performed for characterizing the modification. The construction of multilayer films of octadecanethiol (ODT)‐niosomes had almost no pinholes, which elicited that niosomes‐coated electrode through ODT assembly was more effective immobilization compared to direct modification method. A large semicircle formation in the entire range of frequency indicated the complete electron‐transfer control for the redox reaction, implying a perfect blocking behavior. The Nyquist plot was consisting of two depressed semicircles after storage for 36 h in air, which implied a progressive and uniform construction manner, as expected for porous coatings. The modified electrode was used to investigate the interaction between 1‐anilino‐8‐naphthalene‐sulfonate (ANS) and noisomes. It was found that the low‐frequency semicircular arcs increase in diameter, indicating that the increase in the resistance R p attributed mainly to the niosomes/solution interface. It was due to the binding of ANS to the niosomes‐modified electrode surface, exhibited against diffusing species through the pores. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
