Cost effective, simple and accurate two voltammetric methods for determination of boron in hazelnut, peanut, almond, raisin, prune and date samples were described. Metal nanoparticles-carbon nanotube modified glassy carbon electrode (MNP/CNT/GCE, M = Au or Cu) and poly xylenol orange modified pencil graphite electrode (p-XO/PGE) were used as working electrodes. The oxidation of alizarin red s (ARS) in the boron-ARS complex at MNP/CNT/GCE and the oxidation of tiron in the B-tiron complex at p-XO/PGE were monitored as response. The limit of determination values (based on visual evaluation) for CuNP/CNT/GCE, AuNP/CNT/GCE and p-XO/PGE were calculated as 100 µg/L, 125 µg/L and 80 µg/L, respectively. The results were compared with the results obtained by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometric method and no significant difference between the results was observed. The accuracy experiments of the methods and uncertainty calculations were also performed using a certified reference material (UME CRM 1202 Elements in Hazelnut).
