对苯二胺在血红蛋白/聚L-谷氨酸/玻碳修饰电极上的可逆氧化

采用电聚合法在玻碳电极(GCE)表面得到导电性能良好的聚L-谷氨酸(PGA)薄膜,通过共价键合法将血红蛋白(Hb)固定于电极表面得到稳定且具有催化活性的Hb/PGA/GCE修饰电极,将其用于对苯二胺(PPD)的可逆氧化。 修饰电极交流阻抗及血红蛋白直接电化学实验表明,血红蛋白成功地固定于电极表面,保持良好的电催化活性,能有效催化H₂O₂的还原。 PPD在电极上表现为受吸附控制的准可逆氧化还原反应,I_p,a/I_p,c约为1.02,电极没有明显的钝化现象。 氧化还原峰电流与PPD的浓度均呈良好的线性关系,I_p,a(μA)=3.124+0.705c_PPD(mmol/L)(r=0.9973)。 H₂O₂的存在使PPD氧化还原峰型更对称,可逆性更好,表明体系中PPD氧化与过氧化酶催化途径一致。     

Au单晶电极上H2O2的氧化反应研究

本文利用旋转圆盘电极系统研究了酸性介质中H₂O₂在Au(100)和Au(111)电极表面的电化学行为. 实验发现在Au电极上H₂O₂难以发生还原,但是当电位稍微正于H₂O₂氧化为O₂的平衡电势时即可发生氧化. 在Au(111)上H₂O₂氧化的起始电位比在Au(100)正0.1 V左右. Au(100)上的双桥位位点能增强反应中间体*OOH的吸附,可能是导致Au(100)上H₂O₂氧化反应超电势比Au(111)低的主要原因. 在较正电位区(E>1.2 V), 当电极表面被氧物种覆盖时,H₂O₂在两个电极上的氧化都会受到一定程度的抑制,这种影响在Au(111)上比Au(100)上更加明显,这与Au(111)上氧物种的生成与逆向还原可逆性差的趋势一致. 最后还将Au与Pt单晶电极上H₂O₂氧化的行为进行了对比分析.

原位红外光谱法研究对氯苯酚在Pt电极上的电氧化行为

采用原位红外光谱法研究了碱性条件下对氯苯酚(PCP)在Pt电极上电化学氧化的脱氯反应机理. 研究结果表明Pt电极对PCP有良好的电化学反应活性, 其氧化过程首先是对氯苯酚负离子氧化生成对氯苯氧自由基, 该自由基可与对氯苯酚负离子作用生成芳香醚低聚物; 随着电位升高, 对氯苯酚负离子经电化学氧化生成了苯二酚盐(还可能存在其氧化产物不饱和羧酸盐); 当电位继续升高, 苯二酚盐进一步氧化形成苯醌; 最后, 在Pt表面生成小分子羧酸盐, 同时生成了最终产物CO2. 但由于芳香醚低聚物等不溶性聚合物膜的形成并吸附在Pt电极表面, 可造成Pt电极毒化, 使得Pt电极在使用过程中逐渐失去活性.

Voltammetric studies of the activity of an electrode made of a graphite-epoxy composite in redox reactions of ascorbic acid and hydroquinone

The potentials of the anodic peak of ascorbic acid oxidation and the potential differences of anodic and cathodic peaks (ΔE _p) of the hydroquinone/benzoquinone redox system at an electrode made of a graphite-epoxy composite are determined in weakly acidic and neutral supporting electrolytes by direct and cyclic voltammetry. The results obtained are compared with thermodynamic values and with the available values of these parameters at different solid electrodes for the above-mentioned redox systems. The effect of aging of the surface of electrodes made of graphite-epoxy composites on the potentials and peak currents of the anodic oxidation of ascorbic acid are studied. It is demonstrated that the regeneration of the electrode surface by mechanically cutting thin layers is important for reducing the δE _p value of the hydroquinone/benzoquinone redox system down to 28–30 mV in supporting electrolytes with pH 2.0 and 7.0. This value is typical of thermodynamically reversible electrode reactions involving two-electron transfer at 20–25°C.     

Strategy for Low Background‐Current Levels in the Electrochemical Biosensors Using Horse‐Radish Peroxidase Labels

This article describes an electrochemical strategy to achieve low background‐current levels in horse‐radish peroxidase (HRP)‐based electrochemical immunosensors. The strategy consists of (i) the use of an HRP substrate/product redox couple whose formal potential is high and (ii) the use of an electrode that shows moderate electrocatalytic activity for the redox couple. The strategy is proved by a model biosensor using a catechol/o‐benzoquinone redox couple and an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode. The combined effect of high formal potential and moderate electrocatalytic activity allows o‐benzoquinone electroreduction with minimal catechol electrooxidation and H₂O₂ electroreduction. The detection limit for mouse‐IgG is 100 pg/mL.

DCBQ是二价阴离子发生化学变化的电化学-电化学-化学(EEC)机理, 而DMOBQ则是还原产物一价阴离子自由基参与化学变化的电化学-化学-电化学(ECE)机理. 进一步对CO₂捕获过程进行了定量分析, 得出2种反应的化学计量比均为1∶1.     

Electrochemical oxidation of catechol at poly(indole-5-carboxylic acid) electrode

In this work we examined the electrochemical properties of poly(indole-5-carboxylic acid), PIn₅COOH. The polymer was produced by electrochemical polymerisation using cyclic voltammetry (CV). It was shown that PIn₅COOH is electroactive in aqueous solutions showing two redox processes in acidic solution and one redox process in solutions with pH > 4. The oxidation of catechol (CT) on Pt/In₅COOH modified electrodes was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and rotating disc electrode (RDE) voltammetry. It was established that CT was oxidised only after the oxidation of polymer film was initiated and that polymer significantly enhanced the oxidation and reduction peak currents in comparison with bare Pt electrode. The variation of peak currents (i _pa, i _pc) as a function of CT concentration was found to be linear up to 6 mM. Experiments with a rotating disk electrode show that the oxidation reaction of catechol occures not only at the polymer/electrolyte interface but also in the polymer film.     

Electrochemical characterization of the redox couple of Fe(III)/Fe(II) mediated by grafted polymer electrode

A new grafted polymer electrode (GPE) (polystyrene as polymer) was grafted with acrylonitrile as a monomer using gamma irradiation to produce a new grafted polymer. The redox process of K₃Fe(CN)₆ during cyclic voltammetry was studied by the new GPE. The ratio of Ipc/Ipa >1 of GPE to GCE Ipc/Ipa = 1.7, indicating that this electrode is a reversible electrode and can be used in conductivity studies by voltammetric analysis. The physical properties of the new electrode GP have good hardness, insolubility, and stability at different high temperatures and at different pH. Also, the sensitivity under conditions of cyclic voltammetry is significantly dependent on pH, electrolyte, and scan rate. At different scan rates, two oxidation peaks and two reduction peaks of Fe(III) were observed in a reversible process: Fe(III) Fe(II), and Fe(II) Fe(0). Interestingly, the redox reaction of Fe(III) solution using GPE remained constant even after 15 cycles. It is therefore evident that the GPE possesses some degree of stability. The potential use of the grafted polymer as a useful electrode material is therefore clearly evident.     

Electrochemical and chemical modification of poly-o-phenylenediamine redox polymer

Various methods for modification of poly-o-phenylenediamine (PPD) redox polymer with polyaniline (PANI) electron-conducting polymer, ReO ₄ ⁻ and [SiMo₁₂O₄₀]⁴⁻ anions, and palladium clusters are compared. Participation of anions is proven in the processes of PPD synthesis and redox transformations. Formation mechanisms and properties of composites consisting of a redox polymer and electron-conducting polymer and those of two different electron-conducting polymers are compared for example of PPD-PANI and ethylene-dioxythiophene-polybithiophene. A comparison of these systems shows the main change in the potential drop to take place at the metal/polymer interface for a redox polymer and at the polymer/solution interface, for an electron-conducting polymer. Published in Russian in Elektrokhimiya, 2006, Vol. 42, No. 12, pp. 1409–1416. Based on the report delivered at the 8th International Frumkin Symposium “Kinetics of the Electrode Processes,” October 18–22, 2005, Moscow. The article was translated by the authors.     

Adsorption and redox processes at carbon nanofiber electrodes grown onto a ceramic fiber backbone

The adsorption of aromatic compounds onto activated carbons and carbon nanofibers is of considerable technical importance and beneficial in electroanalytical procedures. Here, effects due to the strong adsorption of hydroquinone, benzoquinone, and phenol onto carbon nanofiber electrodes immersed in aqueous media are reported. Carbon nanofiber materials (fiber diameter approximately 100 nm) are grown onto ceramic fiber substrates by employing an ambient pressure chemical vapour deposition process. The resulting composite electrode material is sufficiently electrically conducting due to the high carbon content and mechanically robust due to the ceramic backbone. It is shown that the voltammetric signal obtained for the one electron reduction of Ru(NH₃)₆³⁺ is dominated by solution trapped in the three-dimensional electrode structure. In contrast, for the hydroquinone/benzoquinone redox system in aqueous phosphate buffer (pH 7) strong adsorption onto the carbon nanofiber material is observed. In the presence of phenol also strong adsorption is detected. In the course of the chemically irreversible oxidation of phenol in aqueous phosphate buffer (pH 7), the formation of multi-electron oxidation products related to benzoquinone is observed. The pathway for the oxidation process is attributed to (i) the high surface area of the carbon nanofiber electrode and (ii) the adsorption of intermediates.     

The electrochemical reaction mechanism of selenocystine on selenium-gold film modified glassy carbon electrode

A simple and selective voltammetric method based on selenium-gold film modified glassy carbon electrode has been developed for investigating electrochemical reaction mechanism of selenocystine. With N₂ saturated, redox reactions between selenocystine (SeC) and selenocysteine (SeCys) were judged to be two simple electron-transfer processes. With air saturated, the reduction reaction was diagnosed to be EC catalytic reaction (the chemical oxidation reaction of the SeCys by O₂ (C) following the electron-transfer reaction (E)) and oxidation reaction is a simple electron-transfer process. With pure O₂ saturated, only reduction peak was observed and the reaction was judged to be EC catalytic reaction. The electron-transfer numbers of redox reaction were calculated to be 2 by chronocoulometry and rotating disk electrode.
