Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene-co-(5-amino-2-naphthalenesulfonic acid)) (PEDOT-PANS) film modified glassy carbon electrode was prepared by electrochemical polymerization technique. The properties of modified electrode was studied. It was found that the electrochemical properties of modified electrode was very much dependent on the experimental conditions, such as monomer oxidation potential and pH. The modified electrode surface was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The PEDOT-PANS film modified electrode shows electrocatalytic activity toward oxidation of dopamine (DA) in acetate buffer solution (pH 5.0) and results in a marked enhancement of the current response. The linear sweep voltammetric (LSV) peak heights are linear with DA concentration from 2 × 10⁻⁶ to 1 × 10⁻⁵ M. The detection limit is 5 × 10⁻⁷ M. More over, the interferences of ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) were effectively diminished. This work provides a simple and easy approach for selective determination of dopamine in the presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid.

Cu nanoparticles have been electrochemically incorporated polypyrrole film that was used for modification of the glassy carbon electrode surface. The performance of the electrode has been characterized by cyclic voltammetry and atomic force microscopy. The electrode has shown high electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) simultaneously in a phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.00). The electrocatalytic oxidation currents of UA and DA were found linearly related to concentration over the range 1 × 10⁻⁹ to 1 × 10⁻⁵ M for UA and 1 × 10⁻⁹ to 1 × 10⁻⁷ M for DA using DPVs method. The detection limits were determined as 8 × 10⁻¹⁰ M (s/n = 3) for UA and 8.5 × 10⁻¹⁰ M (s/n = 3) for DA at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3.     

Simultaneous determination of uric acid,xanthine, hypoxanthine and caffeine in human blood serum and urine samples using electrochemically reduced graphene oxide modified electrode

This paper describes the fabrication of graphene on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by electrochemical reduction of graphene oxide (GO) attached through 1,6-hexadiamine on GCE and the simultaneous determination of structurally similar four purine derivatives using the resultant electrochemically reduced GO (ERGO) modified electrode. The electrocatalytic activity of ERGO was investigated toward the oxidation of four important purine derivatives, uric acid (UA), xanthine (XN), hypoxanthine (HXN) and caffeine (CAF) at physiological pH. The modified electrode not only enhanced the oxidation currents of the four purine derivatives but also shifted their oxidation potentials toward less positive potentials in contrast to bare GCE. Further, it successfully separates the voltammetric signals of the four purine derivatives in a mixture and hence used for the simultaneous determination of them. Selective determination of one purine derivative in the presence of low concentrations other three purine derivatives was also realized at the present modified electrode. Using differential pulse voltammetry, detection limits of 8.8 × 10⁻⁸ M, 1.1 × 10⁻⁷ M, 3.2 × 10⁻⁷ M and 4.3 × 10⁻⁷ M were obtained for UA, XN, HXN and CAF, respectively. The practical application of the modified electrode was demonstrated by simultaneously determining the concentrations of UA, XN, HXN and CAF in human blood plasma and urine samples.     

Electrodeposition of gold nanoclusters on overoxidized polypyrrole film modified glassy carbon electrode and its application for the simultaneous determination of epinephrine and uric acid under coexistence of ascorbic acid

A novel biosensor was fabricated by electrochemical deposition of gold nanoclusters on ultrathin overoxidized polypyrrole (PPyox) film, formed a nano-Au/PPyox composite on glassy carbon electrode (nano-Au/PPyox/GCE). The properties of the nanocomposite have been characterized by field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical investigations. The nano-Au/PPyox/GCE had strongly catalytic activity toward the oxidation of epinephrine (EP), uric acid (UA) and ascorbic acid (AA), and resolved the overlapping voltammetric response of EP, UA and AA into three well-defined peaks with a large anodic peak difference. The catalytic peak currents obtained from differential pulse voltammetry increased linearly with increasing EP and UA concentrations in the range of 3.0 × 10⁻⁷ to 2.1 × 10⁻⁵ M and 5.0 × 10⁻⁸ to 2.8 × 10⁻⁵ M with a detection limit of 3.0 × 10⁻⁸ and 1.2 × 10⁻⁸ M (s/n = 3), respectively. The results showed that the modified electrode can selectively determine EP and UA in the coexistence of a large amount of AA. In addition, the sensor exhibited excellent sensitivity, selectivity and stability. The nano-Au/PPyox/GCE has been applied to determination of EP in epinephrine hydrochloride injection and UA in urine samples with satisfactory results.     

Selective detection of dopamine in the presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid by a carbon nanotubes-ionic liquid gel modified electrode

The electrochemistry of dopamine (DA) was studied by cyclic voltammetry at a glassy carbon electrode modified by a gel containing multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and room-temperature ionic liquid of 1-octyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate (OMIMPF₆). The thickness of gel on the surface of the electrode has to be controlled carefully because the charging currents increase with the modified layer being thicker. The anodic peaks of DA, ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) in their mixture can be well separated since the peak potential of AA is shifted to more negative values, while that of UA is shifted to more positive values due to the modified electrode. At pH 7.08 the three peaks are separated ca. 0.20 and 0.15 V, respectively; hence DA can be determined in the presence of UA and more than 100 times excess of AA. Under optimum conditions linear calibration graphs were obtained over the DA concentration range 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ to 1.0 × 10⁻⁴ M. The detection limit of the current technique was found to be 1.0 × 10⁻⁷ M based on the signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The modified electrode has been successfully applied for the assay of DA in human blood serum. This work provides a simple and easy approach to selectively detect dopamine in the presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid.     

Electrocatalytic oxidation and determination of norepinephrine in the presence of ascorbic and uric acids at a poly (Evans Blue)—modified glassy carbon electrode

A sensitive and selective electrochemical method for the determination of norepinephrine using a poly (Evans Blue) film-modified glassy carbon electrode was developed. The polymer film-modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of norepinephrine (NE) in phosphate buffer solution (pH 5.0). The linear range of 5.0 × 10⁻⁷–1.8 × 10⁻⁵ M and detection limit of 3.5 × 10⁻⁸ M were observed for the determination of NE in pH 5.0 phosphate buffer solutions. The interference studies showed that the modified electrode had excellent selectivity for the determination of NE in the presence of large excess of ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA). The differences of the oxidation peak potentials for NE-AA and NE-UA were about 175 and 172 mV, respectively. The resolution is large enough to determine AA, NE and UA individually. This work provides a simple and easy approach to selective detection of NE in the presence of AA and UA in physiological samples. The article is published in the original.     

Selective detection of dopamine in the presence of uric acid using a gold nanoparticles-poly(luminol) hybrid film and multi-walled carbon nanotubes with incorporated β-cyclodextrin modified glassy carbon electrode

Gold nanoparticles-poly(luminol) (Plu-AuNPs) hybrid film and multi-walled carbon nanotubes with incorporated β-cyclodextrin modified glassy carbon electrode (β-CD-MWCNTs/Plu-AuNPs/GCE) was successfully prepared for simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). The surface of the modified electrode has been characterized by X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy (XPS), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), field-emission scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM). Cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) have been used to investigate the β-CD-MWCNTs/Plu-AuNPs composite film. Gold nanoparticles anchored into poly(luminol) film exhibited catalytic activity for DA. MWCNTs with incorporated β-CD can greatly promote the direct electron transfer. In 0.10 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS, pH 7.0), the DPV response of the β-CD-MWCNTs/Plu-AuNPs/GCE sensor to DA is about 8-fold as compared with the Plu-AuNPs/GCE sensor, and the detection limit for DA is about one order of magnitude lower than the Plu-AuNPs/GCE sensor. The steady-state current response increases linearly with DA concentration from 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ to 5.6 × 10⁻⁵ M with a low detection limit (S/N = 3) of 1.9 × 10⁻⁷ M. Moreover, the interferences of ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) are effectively diminished. The applicability of the prepared electrode has been demonstrated by measuring DA contents in dopamine hydrochloride injection.     

用聚(L-蛋氨酸)/纳米金修饰玻碳电极同时灵敏检测多巴胺和尿酸简

A novel electrochemical sensor was fabricated by electrodeposition of gold nanoparticles on a poly(L-methionine) (PMT)-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to form a nano-Au/PMT composite-modified GCE (nano-Au/PMT/GCE). Scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical techniques were used to characterize the composite electrode. The modified electrode exhibited considerable electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) in phosphate buffer solution (pH = 7.00). Differential pulse voltammetry revealed that the electrocatalytic oxidation currents of DA and UA were linearly related to concentration over the range of 5.0×10^-8 to 10^-6 mol/L for DA and 7.0×10^-8 to 10^-6 mol/L for UA. The detection limits were 3.7×10^-8 mol/L for DA and 4.5×10^-8 mol/L for UA at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. According to our experimental results, nano-Au/PMT/GCE can be used as a sensitive and selective sensor for simultaneous determination of DA and UA.

A new analytical method for the determination of uric acid (UA) by the perturbation of UA on the Belousov-Zhabotinsky oscillating reaction is proposed. The method is based on the linear relationship between the changes in the oscillating period and the concentration of UA. The calibration curve is linear over the range of 2.0 × 10⁻⁵ to 5.0 × 10⁻⁴ M, with a detecting limit of 3.28 × 10⁻⁶ M. The method features good precision (R.S.D.: 3.59%) and excellent throughput (10 samples h⁻¹). The possible mechanism of the perturbation of UA on the oscillating reaction is discussed.

A convenient, low cost, and sensitive electrochemical method, based on a disposable graphene nanosheets (GR) and NiO nanoparticles modified carbon screen printed electrode (NiO/GR/SPE), is described for the simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). The modified electrode exhibited good electrocatalytic properties toward the oxidation of DA and UA. A peak potential difference of 150 mV between DA and UA was large enough to determine DA and UA individually and simultaneously. The anodic peak currents of DA were found to be linear in the concentration range of 1.0–500.0 μM with the detection limit of 3.14×10^?7 M.     

Modification of carbon paste with congo red supported on multi-walled carbon nanotube for voltammetric determination of uric acid in the presence of ascorbic acid

A chemically modified carbon-paste electrode (CPE) is prepared by incorporating congo red (CR) immobilized on multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT). The results show that CR is effectively immobilized on the surface of MWCNT under the ultrasonic agitation in aqueous solution and further incorporating the nafion. The prepared electrode, due to the electrostatic repulsions between the CR and ascorbate anion, is capable to mask the response of the ascorbic acid (AA) completely and provide an effective method for the detection of minor amounts of uric acid (UA) in the presence of high concentrations of AA. On the other hand, an increase in the microscopic area of the electrode by addition of MWCNT together with the electrocatalytic activity caused to a significant enhancement in the voltammetric response to UA. Optimization of the amounts of composite modifier in the matrix of CPE is performed by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetric measurements. The modified electrode shows a linear response to UA in the range of 1.0 × 10⁻⁷–1.0 × 10⁻⁴ M with a detection limit of 1.0 × 10⁻⁸ M. The electrode exhibits excellent accuracies for the determination of UA in the presence of high concentrations of AA (a recovery of 97.6%). The response of the electrode toward sulfhydryl compounds such as cysteine, penicillamine, and glutathione is not considerable. This reveals a good selectivity for the voltammetric response toward UA. The effective electrocatalytic property, ability for masking the voltammetric responses of the other biologically reducing agents, ease of preparation, and surface regeneration by simple polishing together with high reproducibility and stability of the responses make the modified electrode suitable for the selective and sensitive voltammetric detection of sub-micromolar amounts of UA in clinical and pharmaceutical preparations.     

Simultaneous determination of epinephrine, uric acid and xanthine in the presence of ascorbic acid using an ultrathin polymer film of 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol modified electrode

This paper describes the simultaneous determination of epinephrine (EP), uric acid (UA) and xanthine (XN) in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA) using electropolymerized ultrathin film of 5-amino-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol (p-ATT) modified glassy carbon (GC) electrode in 0.2 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 5). Although bare GC electrode resolves the voltammetric signals of AA and XN, it fails to resolve the voltammetric signals of EP and UA in a mixture. However, the p-ATT modified electrode not only separates the voltammetric signals of AA, EP, UA and XN with potential difference of 150, 120 and 400 mV between AA-EP, EP-UA and UA-XN, respectively but also shows higher oxidation current for these molecules. The p-ATT modified electrode exhibits excellent selectivity towards the oxidation of EP, UA and XN in the presence of 40-fold higher concentration of AA. Further, the p-ATT modified electrode was also used for the selective determination of EP in the presence of 40-fold higher concentrations of AA, UA and XN. Using amperometric method, we achieved the lowest detection of 40 nM EP and 60 nM each UA and XN. The amperometric current response was increased linearly with increasing EP concentration in the range of 4.0 × 10⁻⁸ to 4.0 × 10⁻⁵ M and the detection limit was found to be 27 × 10⁻¹¹ M (S/N = 3). The practical application of the present modified electrode was demonstrated by determining the concentration of EP in epinephrine tartrate injection and XN in human urine samples.     

Disposable biosensor based on cathodic electrochemiluminescence of tris(2,2-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) for uric acid determination

A new method for uric acid (UA) determination based on the quenching of the cathodic ECL of the tris(2,2-bipyridine)ruthenium(II)–uricase system is described. The biosensor is based on a double-layer design containing first tris(2,2-bipyridine)ruthenium(II) (Ru(bpy)₃²⁺) electrochemically immobilized on graphite screen-printed cells and uricase in chitosan as a second layer. The uric acid biosensing is based on the ECL quenching produced by uric acid over the cathodic ECL caused by immobilized Ru(bpy)₃²⁺ in the presence of uricase. The use of a −1.1 V pulse for 1 s with a dwelling time of 10 s makes it possible to estimate the initial enzymatic rate, which is used as the analytical signal. The Stern–Volmer type calibration function shows a dynamic range from 1.0 × 10⁻⁵ to 1.0 × 10⁻³ M with a limit of detection of 3.1 × 10⁻⁶ M and an accuracy of 13.6% (1.0 × 10⁻⁴ M, n = 5) as relative standard deviation. Satisfactory results were obtained for urine samples, creating an affordable alternative for uric acid determination.

A novel bimediator amperometric sensor is fabricated for the first time by surface modification of graphite electrode with thionine (TH) and nickel hexacyanoferrate (NiHCF). The electrochemical behavior of the TH/NiHCF bimediator modified electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry and chronoamperometry.

A novel biosensor by electrochemical codeposited Pt‐Fe(III) nanocomposites and DNA film was constructed and applied to the detection of uric acid (UA) in the presence of high concentration of ascorbic acid (AA). Based on its strong catalytic activity toward the oxidation of UA and AA, the modified electrode resolved the overlapping voltammetric response of UA and AA into two well‐defined peaks with a large anodic peak difference (ΔE_pa) of about 380mV. The catalytic peak current obtained from differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was linearly dependent on the UA concentration from 3.8×10^?6 to 1.6×10^?4 M (r=0.9967) with coexistence of 5.0×10^?4 M AA. The detection limit was 1.8×10^?6 M (S/N=3) and the presence of 20 times higher concentration of AA did not interfere with the determination. The modified electrode shows good sensitivity, selectivity and stability.

A glassy carbon electrode modified with poly(alizarin red)/electrodeposited graphene (PAR/EGR) composite film was prepared and applied to detect ciprofloxacin (CPFX) in the presence of ascorbic, uric acid and dopamine. The morphology and interface property of PAR/EGR films were examined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The electrocatalytic oxidation of CPFX on AR/EGR was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The linearity ranged from 4 × 10⁻⁸ to 1.2 × 10⁻⁴ M with a detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.01 μM. The modified electrode could be applied to the individual determination of CPFX as well as the simultaneous determination of CPFX, ascorbic acid, uric acid and dopamine. This method proved to be a simple, selective and rapid way to determine CPFX in pharmaceutical preparation and biological media.     

Poly(isonicotinic acid) modified glassy carbon electrode for electrochemical detection of norepinephrine

A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with electropolymerized films of isonicotinic acid in pH 5.6 phosphate buffer solution (PBS) by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The modified electrode showed an excellent electrocatalytical effect on the oxidation of norepinephrine (NE). In PBS of pH 7.4, the oxidation current increased linearly with two concentration intervals of NE, one is 4.0×10⁻⁷ to 1.0×10⁻⁵ M, the other is 1.0×10⁻⁵ to 2.0×10⁻⁴ M. The detection limit (S/N=3) obtained by DPV was 6.0×10⁻⁹ M. Then the modified electrode was used to determine NE in an excess of ascorbic acid (AA) by difference pulse voltammetry. The peak potentials recorded in a PBS of pH 7.4 were −68 and +111 mV versus SCE for AA and NE, respectively. The high selectivity and sensitivity for NE was found to be due to the very distinct attracting interaction between NE cations and the negtively charged poly(isonicotinic acid) film in pH 7.4 PBS. The proposed method exhibited good recovery and reproducibility.

We report the synthesis and the electrochemical properties of hybrid films made of zinc oxide (ZnO) and Meldola's blue dye (MB) using cyclic voltammetry (CV). MB/ZnO hybrid films were electrochemically deposited onto glassy carbon, gold and indium tin oxide-coated glass (ITO) electrodes at room temperature (25 ± 2 °C) from the bath solution containing 0.1 M Zn(NO₃)₂, 0.1 M KNO₃ and 1 × 10⁻⁴ M MB. The surface morphology and deposition kinetics of MB/ZnO hybrid films were studied by means of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) techniques, respectively. SEM and AFM images of MB/ZnO hybrid films have revealed that the surfaces are well crystallized, porous and micro structured. MB molecules were immobilized and strongly fixed in a transparent inorganic matrix. MB/ZnO hybrid films modified glassy carbon electrode (MB/ZnO/GC) showed one reversible redox couple centered at formal potential (E⁰′) −0.12 V (pH 6.9). The surface coverage (Γ) of the MB immobilized on ZnO/GC was about 9.86 × 10⁻¹² mol cm⁻² and the electron transfer rate constant (ks) was determined to be 38.9 s⁻¹. The MB/ZnO/GC electrode acted as a sensor and displayed an excellent specific electrocatalytic response to the oxidation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH). The linear response range between 50 and 300 μM NADH concentration at pH 6.9 was observed with a detection limit of 10 μM (S/N = 3). The electrode was stable during the time it was used for the full study (about 1 month) without a notable decrease in current. Indeed, dopamine (DA), ascorbic acid (AA), acetaminophen (AP) and uric acid (UA) did not show any interference during the detection of NADH at this modified electrode.

A modified electrode was fabricated by electrochemically deposition of Pt nanoparticles on the multiwall carbon nanotube covered glassy carbon electrode (Pt nanoparticles decorated MWCNT/GCE). A higher catalytic activity was obtained to electrocatalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid, dopamine, and uric acid due to the enhanced peak current and well‐defined peak separations compared with both, bare and MWCNT/GCE. The electrode surfaces were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Individual and simultaneous determination of AA, DA, and UA were studied by differential pulse voltammetry. The detection limits were individually calculated for ascorbic acid, dopamine, and uric acid as being 1.9×10^?5 M, 2.78×10^?8 M, and 3.2×10^?8 M, respectively. In simultaneous determination, LODs were calculated for AA, DA, and UA, as of 2×10^?5 M, 4.83×10^?8 M, and 3.5×10^?7 M, respectively.
