Electrochemical Preparation of Poly(Malachite Green) Film Modified Nafion‐Coated Glassy Carbon Electrode and Its Electrocatalytic Behavior Towards NADH,Dopamine and Ascorbic Acid

Poly(malachite green) film modified Nafion‐coated glassy carbon electrodes have been prepared by potentiodynamic cycling in malachite green solution. The pH of polymerisation solution has only minor effect on film formation. Electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) was used to monitor the growth of the poly(malachite green) film. Cyclic voltammogram of the poly(malachite green) film shows a redox couple with well‐defined peaks. The redox response of the modified electrode was found to be depending on the pH of the contacting solution. The peak potentials were shifted to a less positive region with increasing pH and the dependence of the peak potential was found to be 56 mV per pH unit. The electrocatalytic behavior of poly(malachite green) film modified Nafion‐coated glassy carbon electrodes was tested towards oxidation of NADH, dopamine, and ascorbic acid. The oxidation of dopamine and ascorbic acid occurred at less positive potential on poly(malachite green) film compared to bare glassy carbon electrode. In the case of NADH, the overpotential was reduced substantially on modified electrode. Finally, the feasibility of utilizing poly(malachite green) film electrode in analytical estimation of ascorbic acid was demonstrated in flow injection analysis.     

Electrochemistry of conducting polypyrrole films containing cobalt porphyrin

The electrochemical polymerisation of pyrrole-substituted cobalt tetraphenylporphine complex on a vitreous carbon electrode has been performed in acetonitrile+tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate solution. The redox properties of the film have been examined by cyclic voltammetry and compared to those of cobalt-porphyrin monomer in solution. Voltammograms of these films exhibit a reversible process for the Co(II)/Co(I) reaction at a formal potential of −0.87 V/SCE. The cobalt-porphyrin content of the films has been estimated by cyclic voltammetry, and the conductivity of the polymers has been assessed by studying well-known electrochemical processes in solution at these modified electrodes. Thus, it appears that thick polyporphyrin films act as insulators in low potential range E < −1 V/SCE. Copolymerisation of the pyrrole-substituted cobalt porphyrin with pyrrole and 3-(pyrrol-1-ylmethyl)pyridine has been achieved. No improvement of the electrochemical properties has been noted for the copolymers obtained. We have also proved that interchain complexation reaction of the cobalt(III) sites occurs by the pyridine moieties of the copolymer films.     

Amperometric Biosensors for Glucose Based on Layer‐by‐Layer Assembled Functionalized Carbon Nanotube and Poly (Neutral Red) Multilayer Film

Abstract

Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were treated with a mixture of concentrated sulfuric and nitric acid to introduce carboxylic acid groups to the nanotubes. Conducting polymer film was prepared by electrochemical polymerization of neutral red (NR). By using a layer‐by‐layer method, homogeneous and stable MWNTs and poly (neutral red) (PNR) multilayer films were alternately assembled on glassy carbon (GC) electrodes. With the introduction of PNR, the MWNTs/PNR multilayer film system showed synergy between the MWNTs and PNR, with a significant improvement of redox activity due to the excellent electron‐transfer ability of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and PNR. The electropolymerization is advantageous, providing both prolonged long‐term stability and improved catalytic activity of the resulting modified electrodes. The MWNTs/PNR multilayer film modified glassy carbon electrode allows low potential detection of hydrogen peroxide with high sensitivity and fast response time. As compared to MWNTs and PNR‐modified GC electrodes, the magnitude of the amperometric response of the MWNTs/PNR composite‐modified GC electrode is more than three‐fold greater than that of the MWNTs modified GC electrode, and nine‐fold greater than that of the PNR‐modified GC electrode. With the immobilization of glucose oxidase onto the electrode surface using glutaric dialdehyde, a biosensor that responds sensitively to glucose has been constructed. In pH 6.98 phosphate buffer, nearly interference‐free determination of glucose has been realized at ?0.2 V vs. SCE with a linear range from 50 µM to 10 mM and response time <10s. The detection limit was 10 µM glucose (S/N=3).

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene-co-(5-amino-2-naphthalenesulfonic acid)) (PEDOT-PANS) film modified glassy carbon electrode for selective detection of dopamine in the presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid

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.

Modified platinum electrode with phytic acid and single-walled carbon nanotube: Application to the selective determination of dopamine in the presence of ascorbic and uric acids

A platinum (Pt) electrode modified by single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) and phytic acid (PA) was investigated by voltammetric methods in buffer solution. The PA-SWNTs/Pt-modified electrode demonstrated substantial enhancements in electrochemical sensitivity and selectivity towards dopamine (DA) in the presence of L-ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA). The PA-SWNTs films promoted the electron transfer reaction of DA, while the PA film, acting as a negatively charged linker, combined with the positively charged DA to induced DA accumulation in the film at pH under 7.4. However, the PA film restrained the electrochemical response of the negatively charged AA due to the electrostatic repulsion. The anodic peak potentials of DA, AA and UA could be separated by electrochemical techniques, and the interferences from AA and UA were effectively eliminated in the DA determination. Linear calibration plots were obtained in the DA concentration range of 0.2-10 μM and the detection limit of the DA oxidation current was determined to be 0.08 μM at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. The results indicated that the modified electrode can be used to determine DA without interference from AA and UA, while ensuring good sensitivity, selectivity, and reproducibility.     

Nanostructured conducting molecularly imprinted polymer for selective extraction of salicylate from urine and serum samples by electrochemically controlled solid-phase micro-extraction

Overoxidized polypyrrole (OPPy) films templated with salicylate (SA) have been utilized as conducting molecular imprinted polymers (CMIPs) for potential-induced selective solid-phase micro-extraction processes. Various important fabrication factors for controlling the performance of the OPPy films have been investigated using fluorescence spectrometry. Several key parameters such as applied potential for uptake, release, pH of uptake and release solution were varied to achieve the optimum micro-extraction procedure. The film template with SA exhibited excellent selectivity over some interference. The calibration graphs were linear in the ranges of 5×10(-8) to 5×10(-4) and 1.2×10(-6) to 5×10(-4)mol mL(-1) and the detection limit was 4×10(-8) mol L(-1). The OPPy film as the solid-phase micro-extraction absorbent has been applied for the selective clean-up and quantification of trace amounts of SA from physiological samples. The results of scanning electron microscopy (SEM) have confirmed the nano-structure morphologies of the films.

Determination of nitrite in food samples by second-order calibration of kinetic spectrophotometric data

A method for the determination of nitrite in soil and vegetable samples by UV-Vis spectroscopy was proposed. The kinetic UV-Vis data were collected during the reaction between nitrite and 4-amino-3-hydroxynaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid with concentration of 0.001 M and pH 1.6. Data were collected by standard addition method. Multivariate curve resolution-alternating least squares was employed to analyze data with non-negativity and three-way data structure constraints. The method can be used to solve matrix effect and unknown interferents in the determination of nitrite in complex samples. The proposed method was used to determine nitrite at low mg/L levels with satisfactory results in soil, lettuce, cabbage and cucumber samples.     

Electrochemical Determination of Pyrogallol at Conducting Poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) Film‐Modified Screen‐Printed Carbon Electrodes

The electrochemical oxidation of pyrogallol at electrogenerated poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) film‐modified screen‐printed carbon electrodes (SPCE) was investigated. The voltammetric peak for the oxidation of pyrogallol in a pH 7 buffer solution at the modified electrode occurred at 0.13 V, much lower than the bare SPCE and preanodized SPCE. The experimental parameters, including electropolymerization conditions, solution pH values and applied potentials were optimized to improve the voltammetric responses. A linear calibration plot, based on flow‐injection amperometry, was obtained for 1–1000 µM pyrogallol, and a slope of 0.030 µA/µM was obtained. The detection limit (S/N=3) was 0.63 µM.     

Simultaneous determination of dopamine, ascorbic acid and uric acid at poly (Evans Blue) modified glassy carbon electrode

A sensitive and selective electrochemical method for the determination of dopamine using an Evans Blue polymer film modified on glassy carbon electrode was developed. The Evans blue polymer film modified electrode shows excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of dopamine in phosphate buffer solution (pH 4.5). The linear range of 1.0 x 10(-6)-3.0 x 10(-5) M and detection limit of 2.5 x 10(-7) M were observed in pH 4.5 phosphate buffer solutions. The interference studies showed that the modified electrode exhibits excellent selectivity in the presence of large excess of ascorbic acid and uric acid. The separation of the oxidation peak potentials for dopamine-ascorbic acid and dopamine-uric acid were about 182 mV and 180 mV, respectively. The differences are large enough to determine AA, DA and UA individually and simultaneously. This work provides a simple and easy approach to selectively detect dopamine in the presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid in physiological samples.     

Determination of S(IV) Oxoanions at Poly[Ru(5‐NO2‐Phen)2Cl] Tetrapyridylporphyrin Glassy Carbon Modified Electrode

Glassy carbon electrodes modified with conducting polymers of Ni(II), Zn(II) and metal free tetraruthenated porphyrin were evaluated for reduction and oxidation processes of S(IV) oxoanions in Na₂SO₃/water‐ethanol at pH 1.0 and 3.5, showing electrocatalytic activity. A Ni(II) film was able to reduce the S(IV) oxoanions selectively in presence of high concentration of gallic acid. The Ni(II) film was also used as an amperometric sensor toward S(IV) oxoanions reduction in white wine samples showing a detection and quantification limit of 1.40 mg L^?1 and 4.68 mg L^?1, respectively. These results are promising for the electrochemical determination of S(IV) using conducting polymers from these macrocycles.     

Methylene blue and neutral red electropolymerisation on AuQCM and on modified AuQCM electrodes: an electrochemical and gravimetric study

The phenazine monomers neutral red (NR) and methylene blue (MB) have been electropolymerised on different quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) substrates: MB at AuQCM and nanostructured ultrathin sputtered carbon AuQCM (AuQCM/C), and NR on AuQCM and on layer-by-layer films of hyaluronic acid with myoglobin deposited on AuQCM (AuQCM-{HA/Mb}(6)). The surface of the electrode substrates was characterised by atomic force microscopy (AFM), and the frequency changes during potential cycling electropolymerisation of the monomer were monitored by the QCM. The study investigates how the monomer chemical structure together with the electrode morphology and surface structure can influence the electropolymerisation process and the electrochemical properties of the phenazine-modified electrodes. Differences between MB and NR polymerisation, as well as between the different substrates were found. The electrochemical properties of the PNR-modified electrodes were analysed by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and compared with the unmodified AuQCM. The results are valuable for future applications of modified AuQCM as substrates for electroactive polymer film deposition and applications in redox-mediated electrochemical sensors and biosensors.     

A novel H2O2 sensor based on the enzymatically induced deposition of polyaniline at a horseradish peroxide/aligned single-wall carbon nanotubes modified Au electrode

A novel H(2)O(2) sensor based on enzymatically induced deposition of electroactive polyaniline (PANI) at a horseradish peroxide (HRP)/aligned single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) modified Au electrode is fabricated, and its electrochemical behaviors are investigated. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy of the sensor confirmed the formation of PANI on SWCNTs through the HRP catalytic reaction. Cyclic voltammograms of PANI/HRP/SWCNTs modified Au electrodes showed a pair of well-defined redox peaks of PANI with reduction peak potentials of 0.211 and oxidation peak potentials of 0.293 V in 0.1 M HOAc-NaOAc (pH 4.3) solution. The oxidation peak current response of PANI is linearly related to H(2)O(2) concentration from 2.5 μM to 50.0 μM with a correlation coefficient of 0.9923 and a sensitivity of 200 μA mM(-1). The detection limit is determined to be 0.9 μM with a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. Thus, the synergistic performance of the enzyme, the highly efficient polymerization of PANI, and the templated deposition of SWCNTs provided an extensive platform for the design of novel electrochemical biosensors.     

Electrocatalytic Oxidation and Determination of Norepinephrine at Poly(Cresol Red) Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with electropolymerized films of cresol red in pH 5.6 phosphate buffer solution (PBS) by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The modified electrode shows an excellent electrocatalytic effect on the oxidation of norepinephrine (NE). The peak current increases linearly with the concentration of NE in the range of 3×10^?6–3×10^?5 M by the differential pulse voltammetry. The detection limit was 2×10^?7 M. The modified electrode can also separate the electrochemical responses of norepinephrine and ascorbic acid (AA). The separation between the anodic peak potentials of NE and AA was 190 mV by the cyclic voltammetry. And the responses to NE and AA at the modified electrode were relatively independent.     

Direct electron transfer for hemoglobin in biomembrane-like dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine films on pyrolytic graphite electrodes

Stable thin films made from dimyristoyl phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) with incorporated hemoglobin (Hb) on pyrolytic graphite (PG) electrodes were characterized by electrochemical and other techniques. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) of Hb-DMPC films showed a pair of well-defined and nearly reversible peaks at about -0.27 V vs. saturated calomel electrode (SCE) at pH 5.5, characteristic of Hb heme Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox couple. The electron transfer between Hb and PG electrodes was greatly facilitated in DMPC films. Apparent heterogeneous rate constants (ks) were estimated by fitting square wave voltammograms of Hb-DMPC films to a model featuring thin layer behavior and dispersion of formal potentials for redox center. The formal potential of Hb heme Fe(III)/Fe(II) couple in DMPC films shifted linearly between pH 4.5 to 11 with a slope of -48 mV pH-1, suggesting that one proton is coupled to each electron transfer in the electrochemical reaction. Soret absorption band positions suggest that Hb retains a near native conformation in DMPC films at medium pH. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) showed the phase transition for DMPC and Hb-DMPC films, suggesting DMPC has an ordered multibilayer structure. Trichloroacetic acid (TCA) was catalytically reduced by Hb-DMPC films with significant decreases in the electrode potential required.

Naphth[1,2-d]oxazole-5-sulfonic acid ( 1 ) has been prepared by the fusion of 4-amino-3-hydroxynaphthalene-1-sulfonic acid with formamide. Interaction of 1 with a number of arenesulfonyl chlorides, aryloxyacetyl chlorides, 1-naphthyloxyacetyl chloride, and chloroacetyl chloride gave 2-(arylsulfonyl)-, 2-(aryloxyacetyl)-, 2-(1-naphthyloxyacetyl)- and 2-(chloroacetyl)naphth[1,2-d]oxaxole-5-sulfonic acids ( 2, 3, 4 and 5 ), respectively. The corresponding sulfonyl chloride of 2 was condensed with amines giving the expected 2-(arylsulfonyl)-naphth[1,2-d]oxazole-5-sulfonamides ( 6 ). Interaction of 5 with hydrazine gave 2-hydrazinoacetyl and disubstituted hydrazine derivatives 7 and 8 . Condensation of 7 with aromatic aldehydes yielded substituted hydrazonoacetyl derivatives 9 . Two moles of 5 react with one mole of hydroquinone in dry acetone in the presence of anhydrous potassium carbonate and potassium iodide gave 1,4-bis[5-sulfonaphth[1,2-d]oxazol-2-ylcarbonyl-methoxy]benzene ( 10 ).
