Abstract: | The direct electrochemistry of hemoglobin (Hb) immobilized in polyacrylonitrile (PAN) modified glassy carbon electrode was described. The protein-PAN film exhibited a pair of well-defined and quasi-reversible cyclic voltammetric peaks for Hb Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox couple in a pH 7.0 phosphate buffer. The formal potential of Hb heme Fe(III)/Fe(II) couple varied linearly with the increase of pH in the range of 5.0-9.0 with a slope of 54 mV pH(-1), which implied that a proton transfer was accompanied with each electron transfer in the electrochemical reaction. Position of Soret absorption band of Hb-PAN film suggested that the Hb kept its secondary structure similar to its native state in the PAN matrix. The Hb in PAN matrix acted as a biologic catalyst to catalyze the reduction of hydrogen peroxide. The electrocatalytic response showed a linear dependence on the H(2)O(2) concentration ranging from 8.3 x 10(-6) to 5 x 10(-4) mol L(-1) with a detection limit of 8.3 x 10(-6) mol L(-1) at 3 sigma. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant K(M)(app) for H(2)O(2) sensor was estimated to be 0.9 mmol L(-1). |
