With sulfonated electrospun polystyrene fiber as a template, uniform polyaniline(PANI) nanotubes were fabricated via polymerization of aniline followed by template removal. Au nanoparticles(Au_nano) were decorated on the PANI nanotube successfully via auto-reduction of HAuCl₄ on the PANI nanotube. The morphology of the nanotubes was characterized by means of scanning electron microscopy(SEM) and transmittance electron microscopy(TEM). By varying precursor concentration and incubation time, Au_nano-PANI with different size of Au_nano was obtained conveniently. Glassy carbon electrode modified with the Au_nano decorated PANI nanotubes (Au_nano-PANI/GCE) was prepared and used seccessfully for the catalytic oxidation of ascorbic acid(AA). The results of differential pulse voltammetry indicate that there is a good linear relationship between the peak currents and the concentrations of AA in the range of 5-3000 μmol/L, with the limit of detection of 1 μmol/L(S/N>3). There is no mutual interference between AA and dopamine. The electrode has been successfully applied in the detection of AA in vitamin C tablet sample.

Electroanalysis of some common pesticides using conducting polymer/multiwalled carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode

The cyclic voltammetric behaviour of three common pesticides such as isoproturon (ISO), voltage (VOL) and dicofol (DCF) was investigated at glassy carbon electrode (GCE), multiwalled carbon nanotubes modified GCE (MWCNTs/GCE), polyaniline (PANI) and polypyrrole (PPY) deposited MWCNT/GCE. The modified electrode film was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD). The electroactive behaviour of the pesticides was realized from the cyclic voltammetric studies.

Effects of accumulation potential, accumulation time, Initial scan potential, amplitude and pulse width were examined for the optimization of stripping conditions. The PANI/MWCNT/GCE performed well among the three electrode systems and the determination range obtained was 0.01-100 mgL(-1) for ISO, VOL and DCF respectively. The limit of detection (LOD) was 0.1 microgL(-1) for ISO, 0.01 microgL(-1) for VOL and 0.05 microgL(-1) for DCF on PANI/MWCNT/GCE modified system. It is significant to note that the PANI/MWCNT/GCE modified system results in the lowest LOD in comparison with the earlier reports.

A poly-ABSA/SWNTs composite-modified electrode was fabricated by electropolymerizing aminobenzene sulphonic acid (ABSA) on the surface of glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). SWNTs provide a 3D porous and conductive network for the polymer immobilization.

A Selective Voltammetric Method for Detecting Dopamine at Quercetin Modified Electrode Incorporating Graphene

The development of a quercetin‐graphene composite‐modified glassy carbon electrode (Qu/GH/GCE) for the selective and sensitive detection of dopamine (DA) is described in this paper. To fabricate the Qu/GH/GCE, graphene (GH) was first coated onto the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and then quercetin (Qu) was electrodeposited on the GH matrix. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) was used to characterize the morphology of the obtained GH and Qu/GH, and the electrochemical properties of the modified electrode were studied using electrochemical techniques. The as‐prepared Qu/GH/GCE occupied a synthetic property between GH and Qu. The common overlapped electrochemical oxidation peaks of DA and AA were completely separated and a remarkable increasing electron‐oxidation current of DA occurred on the Qu/GH/GCE, which enabled the sensitive and selective electrochemical detection of DA in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA) with peak difference of ca. 452 mV between DA and AA. The peak current obtained at 0.174 V (vs. saturated calomel electrode, SCE) from differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) is linearly dependent on the DA concentration in the range from 3.0×10^?8 to 4.0×10^?4 mol/L with a detection limit of 1.0×10^?8 mol/L. Furthermore, the Qu/GH/GCE exhibits good reproducibility and stability, and has been used for the determination of DA in samples of rat’s striatum tissue with satisfactory results.

Quantification of methyldopa in pharmaceuticals using a glassy carbon electrode modified with carbon nanotubes

The quantification of methyldopa in pharmaceuticals has been carried out using a glassy carbon electrode(GCE) modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs). Methyldopa exhibited a quasi-reversible response with a peak potential separation of 473 m V on a bare GCE. However, the cyclic voltammetric behaviour of methyldopa was improved with the increase of the amount of MWCNTs. It was also shown that the electrocatalytic activity of the electrode towards the response of methyldopa was higher with larger amount of film on the surface. The results showed that the peak current was proportional to the concentration of methyldopa with a linear dynamic range of 0.005–0.388 mmol/L and a detection limit of 1.0 nmol/L was obtained using square wave voltammetry. The experimental data showed that the detection limit of methyldopa and peak separation from interfering compounds such as ascorbic acid(AA) and uric acid(UA) were improved using the proposed procedure. The method was successfully applied for the determination of methyldopa in pharmaceuticals.

Covalent modification of glassy carbon electrodes with beta-alanine for voltammetric separation of dopamine and ascorbic acid.

beta-Alanine was covalently grafted on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by amine cation radical formation in the electrooxidation process of the amino-containing compound. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) proved the immobilization of beta-alanine monolayer on GCE. The electrode shows strong electrocatalytic functions to dopamine (DA) and ascorbic acid (AA), reducing the overpotentials by 0.20 V and 0.23 V, respectively.
