The electrochemical behaviors of epinephrine (EP) at the l-cysteine self-assembled monolayers modified gold electrode have been studied. The modified electrode shows an excellent electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of EP and accelerates electron transfer rate. The diffusion coefficient (D) is 1.48x10(-7) cm(2) s(-1). FTIR has shown that cysteine can bind onto the gold surface through the strong sulfur-gold interaction. The electrocatalytic mechanism to EP has been studied. The catalytic current of EP nu s its concentration has a good linear relation in the range of 1.0x10(-7)-2.0x10(-6) mol l(-1), with the correlation coefficient of 0.9989 by differential pulse voltametric (DPV) response. Detection limit is down to 1.0x10(-8) mol l(-1). At a high EP concentration, the relationship between the catalytic current and its concentration exhibits a Michaelis-Menten kinetic mechanism for the electrocatalytic process and the constant K(m) is about 0.155 mmol l(-1). The highest catalytic current I(m) is 2.72 muA. The modified electrode can be used for the determination of EP in practical injection. The method is simple, quick, sensitive and accurate.     

The electrochemical copolymerization of 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid and aniline at microdisk gold electrode and its amperometric determination for ascorbic acid

The electrochemical copolymerization of 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic acid (3,4-DHBA) and aniline was carried out at microdisk gold electrodes by means of cyclic voltammetric sweep. The polymer obtained on the electrode shows good electrochemical activity and high stability even though in neutral and weakly basic media. It was found that the response current of ascorbic acid was greatly enhanced at this composite polymer electrode. Moreover, the anodic overpotential was significantly reduced for about 200 mV (vs. SCE) compared with that obtained at bare gold electrodes. The electrode exhibits a rapid current response (less than 2 s) and a high sensitivity (0.21 AM(-1) cm(-2)). The dependence of response currents on the concentration of ascorbic acid was linear in the range of 1.0x10(-4)-1.0x10(-2) M. In addition this composite polymer modified electrode exhibits a high electrode stability for a long-term use.

Acetylsalicylic acid electrochemical sensor based on PATP-AuNPs modified molecularly imprinted polymer film

A novel electrochemical sensor based on molecularly imprinted polymer film has been developed for aspirin detection. The sensitive film was prepared by co-polymerization of p-aminothiophenol (p-ATP) and HAuCl(4) on the Au electrode surface. First, p-ATP was self-assembled on the Au electrode surface by the formation of Au-S bonds. Then, the acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) template was assembled onto the monolayer of p-ATP through the hydrogen-bonding interaction between amino group (p-ATP) and oxygen (ASA). Finally, a conductive hybrid membrane was fabricated at the surface of Au electrode by the co-polymerization in the mixing solution containing additional p-ATP, HAuCl(4) and ASA template. Meanwhile, the ASA was spontaneously imprinted into the poly-aminothiophenol gold nanoparticles (PATP-AuNPs) complex film. The amount of imprinted sites at the PATP-AuNPs film significantly increases due to the additional replenishment of ASA templates. With the significant increasing of imprinted sites and doped gold nanoparticles, the sensitivity of the molecular imprinted polymer (MIP) electrode gradually increased. The molecularly imprinted sensor was characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and cyclic voltammetry (CV). The linear relationships between current and logarithmic concentration were obtained in the range from 1 nmol L(-1) to 0.1 μmol L(-1) and 0.7 μmol L(-1) to 0.1 mmol L(-1). The detection limit of 0.3 nmol L(-1) was achieved. This molecularly imprinted sensor for the determination of ASA has high sensitivity, good selectivity and reproducibility, with the testing in some biological fluids also has good selectivity and recovery.     

Comparative electrochemical study of new self-assembled monolayers of 2-{[(Z)-1-(3-furyl)methylidene]amino}-1-benzenethiol and 2-{[(2-sulfanylphenyl)imino]methyl}phenol for determination of dopamine in the presence of high concentration of ascorbic acid and uric acid

The comparative electrochemical behavior of self-assembled monolayers of two Schiff's bases, 2-{[(Z)-1-(3-furyl)methylidene]amino}-1-benzenethiol (FMAB) and 2-{[(2-sulfanylphenyl)imino]methyl}phenol (SIMP) on a bare gold electrode (Au FMAB SAM-modified electrode and Au SIMP SAM-modified electrode, respectively), was investigated by means of cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in a 0.1 mol L(-1) KCl solution that contains 5.0 × 10(-3) mol L(-1) [Fe(CN)(6)](3-/4-). The results revealed that the modified electrodes showed an electrocatalytic activity toward the anodic oxidation of dopamine by a marked enhancement in the current response and lower overpotential (60 and 90 mV for the Au FMAB and Au SIMP SAM-modified electrodes, respectively) in phosphate buffer solution at pH 6.0. The Au SIMP SAM-modified electrode was applied successfully to the determination of dopamine in the presence of a high concentration of ascorbic acid. Selective detection was realized in total elimination of ascorbic acid response-a method different from the ones based on the potential separations. The detection limit of dopamine was 5.0 × 10(-8) mol L(-1) in a linear range from 1.0 × 10(-6) to 1.2 × 10(-4) mol L(-1) in the presence of 1.0 × 10(-3) mol L(-1) ascorbic acid. The interference studies also showed that the Au SIMP SAM-modified electrode exhibited good selectivity in the presence of a large excess of uric acid and could be employed for the determination of dopamine in pharmaceutical formulations, plasma samples and human urine with adequate selectivity and precision.     

Voltammetric detection of magnolol in Chinese medicine based on the enhancement effect of mesoporous Al/SiO(2)-modified electrode

The enhancement effect of mesoporous Al-doped silica (Al/SiO(2))-modified electrode was investigated. Due to the properties such as large surface area, strong adsorptive ability and numerous active sites, mesoporous Al/SiO(2) alters the structure and property of electrode/solution interface, then greatly improves the electrochemical response of magnolol. The electrochemical behavior of magnolol was examined in detail. It is found that the oxidation peak current of magnolol remarkably increases at the mesoporous Al/SiO(2)-modified electrode. Based on this, a sensitive and convenient electrochemical method was developed for the determination of magnolol. The linear range is over the range from 7.5 x 10(-8) to 2.0 x 10(-5) mol L(-1). The limit of detection (S/N=3) is as low as 2.5 x 10(-8) mol L(-1). Finally, this novel method was successfully used to determine the magnolol in Chinese traditional medicines.     

Crystallic silver amalgam--a novel electrode material

A crystallic silver amalgam was found to be a suitable working electrode material for voltammetric determination of electrochemically reducible organic nitro-compounds. Optimum conditions for crystal growth were found, the crystal surface was investigated by atomic force microscopy in tapping mode and single crystals were used for the preparation of quasi-cylindrical single crystal silver amalgam electrode (CAgAE). An electrochemical behavior of this alternative electrode material was investigated in aqueous media by direct current voltammetry, cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) using 4-nitrophenol as a model compound. Applicable potential windows of the CAgAE were found comparable with those obtained at a hanging mercury drop electrode, providing high hydrogen overpotential, and polished silver solid amalgam electrode. Thanks to the smooth single crystal electrode surface, the effect of the passivation is not too pronounced, direct DPV determination of 100 μmol l(-1) of 4-nitrophenol at CAgAEs in 0.2 mol l(-1) acetate buffer pH 4.8 provides a RSD around 1.5% (n = 15). DPV calibration curves of 4-nitrophenol are linear in the whole concentration range 1-100 μmol l(-1) with a limit of quantification of 1.5 μmol l(-1). The attempt to increase sensitivity by application of AdSV was not successful. The mechanism of 4-nitrophenol reduction at CAgAE was investigated by CV.     

Electrochemical behavior of the bis(2,2'-bipyridyl)copper(II) complex immobilized on a self-assembled monolayer modified electrode for L-ascorbic acid detection

Modification of a gold electrode has been achieved by immobilizing a bis(2,2'-bipyridyl)copper(II) complex in a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of 3-mercaptopropionic acid. The electrostatic interaction of the negatively charged SAM with a di-positive copper complex allowed the attachment. The modified electrode exhibited excellent redox behavior. The dependence of the modified electrode response was investigated in terms of pH, supporting electrolyte and ionic strength. Moreover, it showed good electrocatalytic activity for ascorbic acid oxidation, allowing convenient quantification at levels down to 8.1 x 10(-8) mol l(-1). The [Cu(bipy)2]/SAM modified electrode under optimized operational conditions (PIPES buffer 0.01 mol l(-1) at pH 6.8 and 200 mV vs. SCE) presented a linear response range between 1.0 micromol l(-1) and 100.0 micromol l(-1) for ascorbic acid. This modified electrode also presented an excellent repeatability, showing a relative standard deviation of 2.1% for a series of 12 successive measurements of a 5.0 micromol l(-1) ascorbic acid solution. Furthermore, the electroactivity was maintained over a long period (e.g., 92% after 100 determinations).

Aluminum oxide coated cellulose fibers were modified, by an impregnation procedure, with n-propylpyridinium chloride silsesquioxane polymer. Good adherence of the polymer to the surface of modified cellulose fibers was obtained due to the Al-O-Si bond formation. The metal X-ray mapping showed that aluminum oxide and the silsequioxane polymer (Al and Si mapping) are highly dispersed on the fiber's surface. The ion exchange capacity of the material, determined on basis of exchangeable chloride ions, was 1.1 mmol g-1. The adsorption isotherms of FeCl3, CuCl2, and ZnCl2 from ethanol solutions were determined for each metal. The adsorption capacities were (in mmol g-1): FeCl3 = 0.82, CuCl2 approximately ZnCl2 = 0.37.

Quantitative determinations of SiC and SiO2 in new ceramic materials by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy

In this paper, we have critically evaluated the electrochemical behavior of the products of seven substrates of the enzyme label, alkaline phosphate, commonly used in electrochemical immunosensors. These products (and the corresponding substrates) include indigo carmine (3-indoyl phosphate), hydroquinone (hydroquinone diphosphate), 4-nitrophenol (4-nitrophenol phosphate), 4-aminophenol (p-aminophenyl phosphate), 1-naphthol (1-naphthyl phosphate), phenol (phenyl phosphate), and L-ascorbic acid (2-phospho-L-ascorbic acid). Cyclic voltammetry and amperometry of these products were carried out at glassy carbon (GC), screen-printed carbon (SPC) and gold (Au) electrodes, respectively. Among the products, L-ascorbic acid showed the most sensitive (24.8 microA cm(-2), 12.0 microA cm(-2), and 48.0 microA cm(-2) of 100 microM ascorbic acid at GC, SPC, and Au electrodes, respectively) and well-defined amperometric response at all electrodes used, making 2-phospho-l-ascorbic acid the best substrate in electrochemical detection involving an alkaline phosphatase (ALP) enzyme label. The 2-phospho-L-ascorbic acid is also commercially available and inexpensive. Therefore, it was the best choice for electrochemical detection using ALP as label. Using mouse IgG as a model, an ALP enzyme-amplified sandwich-type amperometric immunosensor was constructed. The immunosensor was designed by electropolymerization of o-aminobenzoic acid (o-ABA) conductive polymer on the surface of GC, SPC, and Au electrodes. The anti-mouse IgG was subsequently attached on the electrode surface through covalent bonding between IgG antibody and the carboxyl groups from poly(o-ABA). Using 2-phospho-L-ascorbic acid as a substrate, the poly(o-ABA)/Au immunosensor produced the best signal (about 297 times of current density response ratio between 1000 ng mL(-1) and 0 ng mL(-1) of mouse IgG), demonstrating that amperometric immunosensors based on a conducting polymer electrode system were sensitive to concentrations of the mouse IgG down to 1 ng mL(-1), with a linear range of 3-200 ng mL(-1) (S.D.<2; n=3), and very low non-specific adsorption.

Carbon paste electrode for trace zirconium(IV) determination by adsorption voltammetry.

A very sensitive and selective procedure was developed for trace measurement of zirconium based on the cathodic adsorptive stripping voltammetry of the zirconium-alizarin red S(ARS) complex at a carbon paste electrode (CPE). The 2nd-order derivative linear scan voltammograms of the zirconium-ARS complex were recorded by a model JP-303 polarographic analyzer from 0.0 to -1.0 V (vs. SCE). Optimal analytical conditions were found to be: an acetic acid (0.1 mol l(-1))-potassium biphthalate (0.08 mol l(-1)) buffer solution (pH 4.8) containing 4.0 x 10-6 mol l(-1) ARS; accumulation potential, 0.0 V; accumulation time, 180 or 90 s; rest time, 10 s; scan rate, 250 mV s(-1). The results showed that the complex can be adsorbed on the surface of the CPE, yielding one peak at -0.51 V, corresponding to the reduction of ARS in the complex at the electrode. The detection limit was found to be 1.0 x 10(-10) mol l(-1) (S/N = 3) for 240 s accumulation. The linear range was 2.0 x 10(-10)-4.0 x 10(-7) mol l(-1).
