A hyaluronic acid dispersed carbon nanotube electrode used for a mediatorless NADH sensing and biosensing

A biocompatible nanocomposite consisting of single-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs) dispersed in a hyaluronic acid (HA) was investigated as a sensing platform for a mediatorless electrochemical detection of NADH. The device was characterised by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and extensively by electrochemistry. CNT-HA bionanocomposite showed more reversible electrochemistry, higher short-term stability of NADH sensing and higher selectivity of NADH detection compared to frequently used CNT-CHI (chitosan) modified GCE. Finally the performance of the sensor modified by CNT-HA was tested in a batch and flow injection analysis (FIA) mode of operation with basic characteristics revealed. The NADH sensor exhibits a good long-term operational stability (95% of the original sensitivity after 22 h of continuous operation). Subsequently a d-sorbitol biosensor based on such a nanoscale built interface was prepared and characterised with a d-sorbitol dehydrogenase used as a biocatalyst.     

Synthesis of alanine and leucine by reductive amination of 2-oxoic acid with combination of hydrogenase and dehydrogenase

The conversion of pyruvate to alanine was 99% after 1 h. Leucine synthesis was also carried out by the combination of NADH regeneration system and leucine dehydrogenase (LeuDH). The conversion of 4-methyl-2-oxovalerate to leucine was 60% after 1.5 h.     

Electrocatalytic oxidation of NADH at gold nanoparticles loaded poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-poly(styrene sulfonic acid) film modified electrode and integration of alcohol dehydrogenase for alcohol sensing

A new modified electrode is fabricated by dispersing gold nanoparticles onto the matrix of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)–poly(styrene sulfonic acid), PEDOT–PSS. The electrocatalytic activity of the PEDOT–PSS-Au_nano electrode towards the oxidation of β-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) is investigated. A substantial decrease in the overpotential (>0.7 V) has been observed for the oxidation of NADH at the PEDOT–PSS-Au_nano electrode in comparison to the potential at PEDOT–PSS electrode. The Au nanoparticles dispersed in the PEDOT–PSS matrix prevents the fouling of electrode surface by the oxidation products of NADH and augments the oxidation of NADH at a less positive potential (+0.04 V vs. SCE). The electrode shows high sensitivity to the electrocatalytic oxidation of NADH. Further, the presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid does not interfere during the detection of NADH. Important practical advantages such as stability of the electrode (retains 95% of its original activity after 20 days), reproducibility of the measurements (R.S.D.: 2.8%; n = 5), selectivity and wide linear dynamic range (1–80 μM; R² = 0.996) are achieved at PEDOT–PSS-Au_nano electrode. The ability of PEDOT–PSS-Au_nano electrode to promote the electron transfer between NADH and the electrode makes us to fabricate a biocompatible dehydrogenase-based biosensor for the measurement of ethanol. The biosensor showed high sensitivity to ethanol with rapid detection, good reproducibility and excellent stability.     

Electrocatalytic activity of three-dimensional monolayer of 3-mercaptopropionic acid assembled on gold nanoparticle arrays

3-Mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) was assembled on gold nanoparticle arrays to form three-dimensional monolayer. The electrochemical behavior of small biomolecules such as NADH, ascorbic acid (AA), uric acid (UA) and dopamine (DA) on the as-prepared three-dimensional monolayer was studied. The cyclic voltammetric results indicated that three-dimensional MPA monolayer promoted the electron transfer between NADH and electrode, which was similar to two-dimensional MPA monolayer assembled on planar gold electrode. However, to the electrooxidation of AA, although two-dimensional MPA monolayer exhibited a blocking effect, three-dimensional MPA monolayer showed an obvious promotion. The catalytic activity of three-dimensional MPA monolayer towards UA and DA was also observed, which was attributed to its three-dimensional structure that might effectively prevent the poison of the electrode surface by the oxidation products.     

Caffeic acid modified glassy carbon electrode for electrocatalytic oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH)

A new modified electrode was prepared by electrodeposition of caffeic acid (CFA) at the surface of an activated glassy carbon electrode. Cyclic voltammetry was used to investigate the redox properties of this electrode at various solution pH values and at various scan rates. The pH dependence of the electrode response was found to be 58.5 mV/pH, which is very close to the expected Nernstian value. The electrode was also employed to study electrocatalytic oxidation of reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and rotating disk voltammetry as diagnostic techniques. It was found that the modified electrode exhibits potent and persistent electrocatalytic properties toward NADH oxidation in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) with a diminution of the overpotential of about 450 mV compared to the process at an unmodified electrode. The electrocatalytic current increases linearly with NADH concentration in the range tested from 0.05 to 1.0 mM. The apparent charge transfer rate constant and transfer coefficient for electron transfer between the electrode surface and immobilized CFA were calculated as 11.2 s⁻¹ and 0.43, respectively. The heterogeneous rate constant for oxidation of NADH at the CFA-modified electrode surface was also determined and found to be about 3 × 10³ M⁻¹ s⁻¹. Finally, the diffusion coefficient of NADH was calculated as 3.24 × 10⁻⁶ cm² s⁻¹ for the experimental conditions, using chronoamperometric results.

Modification of carbon ceramic electrode prepared with sol-gel technique by a thin film of chlorogenic acid: application to amperometric detection of NADH

The carbon ceramic electrode prepared with sol-gel technique is modified by a thin film of chlorogenic acid (CGA). By immersing the carbon ceramic electrode in aqueous solution of chlorogenic acid at less than 2 s a thin film of chlorogenic acid adsorbed strongly and irreversibly on the surface of electrode. The cyclic voltammetry of the resulting modified CCE prepared at optimum conditions shows a well-defined stable reversible redox couple due to hydroquinone/quinone system in both acidic and basic solutions. The modified electrode showed excellent electrocatalytic activity toward NADH oxidation and it also showed a high analytical performance for amperometric detection of NADH. The catalytic rate constant of the modified carbon ceramic electrode for the oxidation of NADH is determined by cyclic voltammetry measurement. Under the optimised conditions the calibration curve is linear in the concentration range 1-120 μm. The detection limit (S/N = 3) and sensitivity are 0.2 μM and 25 nA μM⁻¹.The results of six successive measurement-regeneration cycles show relative standard deviations of 2.5% for electrolyte solution containing 1 mM NADH, indicating that the electrode renewal gives a good reproducible and antifouling surface. The advantages of this amperometric detector are: high sensitivity, excellent catalytic activity, short response time t < 2 s, remarkable long-term stability, simplicity of preparation at short time and good reproducibility.     

Amperometric sensing of NADH and ethanol using a hybrid film electrode modified with electrochemically fabricated zirconia nanotubes and poly (acid fuchsin)

We report on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with a film of chitosin containing acid fuchsin (AF) adsorbed onto zirconia nanotubes. The mixture was polymerized by cyclic voltammetric scannings in the potential range from - 0.8?V to +1.3?V in buffer solution to produce a hybrid film electrode (nano-ZrO₂/PAF/GCE). The morphology of the hybrid film electrode surface was characterized by scanning electron microscopy. Its electrochemical properties were studied via electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The electrochemical response of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was investigated by differential pulse voltammetry and amperometry. The results indicated that the nano-ZrO₂/PAF/GCE possesses well synergistic catalytic activity towards NADH. Compared to an unmodified GCE, the oxidation overpotential is negatively shifted by 224?mV, and the oxidation current is significantly increased. Under optimal conditions, the amperometric response is linearly proportional to the concentration of NADH in the 1.0 – 100.0?μM concentration range. Ethanol also can be determined by amperometry if alcohol dehydrogenase and NADH are added to the sample. Two linear relationships between current and alcohol concentration were obtained. They cover the range from 0.03 to 1.0?mM, and from 1.0 to 12.0?mM.

Electrocatalysis of NADH oxidation by nanostructured poly(aniline-co-2-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonic acid) and experimental evidence for the catalytic mechanism

The nanostructured poly(aniline-co-2-amino-4-hydroxybenzenesulfonic acid) (PAAHB) was synthesized on a glassy carbon (GC) electrode using potentiostatic method. The SEM imagines of PAAHB films show that the morphology and particle sizes of PAAHB depend on the potential used for PAAHB synthesis. It was found that PAAHB can catalyze NADH oxidation; and its catalytic activity depends on particle sizes of PAAHB. The peak potential of NADH oxidation shifts from 0.63 V at the bare GC electrode to 0.34 V at the PAAHB electrode, and its oxidation current is much higher than that at the bare GC electrode at 0.34 V in the same solution with pH 7.0. Experimental evidence for the catalytic mechanism of NADH oxidation was first obtained via measurements of the in situ chemical-ESR spectra and the potential of the copolymer electrode.

The kinetic constant, k_kin, for the electrocatalytic oxidation of NADH, evaluated by chronoamperometry and voltammetry using RDE, provided values close to 10⁵ mol^?1 L s^?1.     

Electrochemical enzymatic determinations of ethanol and -lactic acid with a carbon paste electrode modified chemically with nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide

The oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) is chemically immobilized at the surface of a carbon paste electrode containing n-octaldehyde. The NAD⁺ is converted to NADH by oxidation of ethanol and -lactic acid catalyzed by their respective dehydrogenases, and the NADH formed is oxidized electrochemically to the original NAD⁺, thus giving a well defined linear-sweep voltammetric peak. The peak area is linearly related to the amount of ethanol or -lactic acid in the range 0.05–2 × 10^-9 mol.

1,4-Dihydropicolinic acid derivatives: novel NADH analogues with an altered connectivity pattern

Sodium dithionite reduction of α-substituted N-alkylpyridinium salts (derived from picolinic acid derivatives) afforded the corresponding 1,4-dihydropyridines with a new substitution pattern, in which the electron-withdrawing group is at the α-position. These compounds promote biomimetic reductions and are hence considered functional NADH analogues.     

DNA cleavage by UVA irradiation of NADH with dioxygen via radical chain processes

Efficient DNA cleaving-activity is observed by UVA irradiation of an O(2)-saturated aqueous solution of NADH (beta-nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide, reduced form). No DNA cleavage has been observed without NADH under otherwise the same experimental conditions. In the presence of NADH, energy transfer from the triplet excited state of NADH ((3)NADH*) to O(2) occurs to produce singlet oxygen ((1)O(2)) that is detected by the phosphorescence emission at 1270 nm. No quenching of (1)O(2) by NADH was observed as indicated by no change in the intensity of phosphorescence emission of (1)O(2) at 1270 nm in the presence of various concentrations of NADH. In addition to the energy transfer, photoinduced electron transfer from (3)NADH* to O(2) occurs to produce NADH(*+) and O(2)(*-), both of which was observed by ESR. The quantum yield of the photochemical oxidation of NADH with O(2) increases linearly with increasing concentration of NADH but decreases with increasing the light intensity absorbed by NADH. Such unusual dependence of the quantum yield on concentration of NADH and the light intensity absorbed by NADH indicates that the photochemical oxidation of NADH with O(2) proceeds via radical chain processes. The O(2)(*-) produced in the photoinduced electron transfer is in the protonation equilibrium with HO(2)(*), which acts as a chain carrier for the radical chain oxidation of NADH with O(2) to produce NAD(+) and H(2)O(2), leading to the DNA cleavage.

The oxidized form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD⁺) is chemically immobilized at the surface of a carbon paste electrode containing n-octaldehyde. The NAD⁺ is converted to NADH by oxidation of ethanol and l-lactic acid catalyzed by their respective dehydrogenases, and the NADH formed is oxidized electrochemically to the original NAD⁺, thus giving a well defined linear-sweep voltammetric peak. The peak area is linearly related to the amount of ethanol or l-lactic acid in the range 0.05–2 × 10^-9 mol.     

Purification and characterization of commercial NADH and accompanying dehydrogenase inhibitors.

The anion-exchange chromatography of commercial NADH using a potassium bicarbonate solution as eluent yields highly pure NADH with good stability. Twelve compounds are also separated which act as dehydrogenase inhibitors. The main impurities are further characterized. The compound mainly responsible for residual optical density in commercial NADH preparations is probably a stereoisomer of NADH which is in reversible equilibrium with NADH at pH values in the range 5-7. A method of thin-layer chromatography, to check commercial NADH preparations for impurities, is described.     

Inhibitory effects of galloylglucose on nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide dehydrogenases of the aerobic respiratory chain of Escherichia coli

The effects of pentagalloylglucose (1,2,3,4,6-penta-O-galloyl-beta-D-glucose) on the aerobic electron transport system of Escherichia coli were studied. The activity of nicotineamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) reductase was inhibited by pentagalloylglucose, but the activities of succinate dehydrogenase, D-lactate dehydrogenase, and ubiquinol-1 (Q1H2) oxidase were not susceptible to the inhibitor. Because the presence of two kinds of NADH dehydrogenase in respiratory chain of Escherichia coli has been reported, we examined the effect of galloylglucose independently on both NADH dehydrogenases. Pentagalloylglucose is potent and specific inhibitor of both NADH dehydrogenases. One of the NADH dehydrogenases (NADH dh II) is more sensitive to the inhibitor than the other (NADH dh I).
