Electropolymerization of Thin Film Conducting Polymer and Its Application for Simultaneous Determination of Ascorbic Acid,Dopamine and Uric Acid

In this paper electropolymerization of a thin film of para‐phenylenediamine (PPD) is studied at glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in sulfuric acid media by cyclic voltammetry. The results showed that this polymer was conducting and had a reproducible redox couple in the potential region from 0.0 to 0.4 V in phosphate buffer solution. This modified GCE (p‐PPD‐GCE) was applied for simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The p‐PPD‐GCE in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 5.0) separated the DPV signals of AA, DA and UA with sufficient potential differences between AA–DA and DA–UA and also enhanced their oxidation peak currents. The oxidation currents were increased from 2.0 to 2000.0 µM for AA, 10.0 to 1250.0 µM for DA and 50.0 to 1600.0 µM for UA. The detection limits were evaluated as 0.4, 1.0 and 2.5 µM for AA, DA and UA, respectively (S/N=3).

Simultaneous Determination of Ascorbic Acid,Dopamine and Uric Acid,at a Graphene Paste Electrode Modified with Functionalized Graphene Sheets

The present study reports the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0) using graphene paste electrode modified with functionalized graphene sheets (GPE‐MFGSs). The presence of FGS inhibited the adsorption of AA owing to the electrostatic repulsion, but was favorable for the affinity adsorption of DA and UA via the ion exchange and hydrogen bonding mechanisms, respectively. This led to the decrease in the oxidation potential of AA and the significantly enhanced oxidation peak currents of DA and UA at the GPE‐MFGSs. By cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry, the oxidation potentials of AA, DA, and UA, at the GPE‐MFGSs in a ternary mixture were found to be well resolved so that their simultaneous determination could be achieved. Furthermore, the influence of some experimental variables such as graphene paste composition, working solution pH, scan rate and pulse amplitude was studied. In addition, by differential pulse voltammetry, the linear dependence of peak current on the concentration was obtained in the ranges of 0.05–9.0, 0.03–13, and 0.03–5.5 µM with the lowest detection limits of 0.02, 0.01, and 0.01 µM for AA, DAand UA, , respectively.

A promising electrochemical biosensor was fabricated by electrochemical grafting of ribonucleic acid (RNA) at 1.8 V (vs. SCE) on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) (denoted as RNA/GCE), for simultaneous detection of dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) with coexistence of excess amount of ascorbic acid (AA). The electrode was characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) techniques. The RNA modified layer on GCE exhibited superior catalytic ability and anionic exclusive ability in comparison with the DNA modified electrode. Three separated anodic DPV peaks were obtained at 0.312, 0.168 and ?0.016 V for UA, DA and AA, respectively, at the RNA/GCE in pH 7.0 PBS. In the presence of 2.0 mM AA, a linear range of 0.37 to 36 μM with a detection limit of 0.2 μM for DA, and in the range of 0.74 to 73 μM with a detection limit of 0.36 μM for UA were obtained. The co‐existence of 5000 fold AA did not interfere with the detection of DA or UA. The modified electrode shows excellent selectivity, good sensitivity and good stability.     

Simultaneous Determination of Ascorbic Acid,Dopamine and Uric Acid Based on Gold Nanoparticles‐PTCA‐Cys Composites Modified Electrodes

In this study, a nanocomposite of 3, 4, 9, 10‐perylenetetracarboxylic acid and L‐cysteine (PTCA‐Cys) with satisfactory water‐solubility and film‐forming ability was prepared and worked as substrate for modifying the glassy carbon electrode. Then, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were immobilized to achieve a PTCA‐Cys‐AuNPs modified electrode which provided more reaction positions on the sensor. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and different pulse voltammetry were employed to characterize the assembly process of the sensor. The constructed sensor displayed desirable sensitivity, selectivity and stability towards the simultaneous detection of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). Under the optimal experimental conditions, the oxidation peaks of AA, DA and UA appeared at 64, 240 and 376 mV, respectively. The corresponding linear response ranges were 3.2–435, 0.04–100 and 0.80–297 μM, and the detection limits were 1.1, 0.010 and 0.27 μM (S/N=3), respectively.     

Electrochemical Determination of Tyrosine in the Presence of Dopamine and Uric Acid at the Surface of Gold Nanoparticles Modified Carbon Paste Electrode

A gold nanoparticles modified carbon paste electrode (GN‐CPE) was used as a highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for determination of tyrosine (Tyr), dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) in phosphate buffer solution (PBS). The study and measurements were carried out by using cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and chronoamperometry methods. In DPV, the GN‐CPE could separate the oxidation peak potentials of DA and UA present in the same solution, though at the unmodified CPE the peak potentials were indistinguishable. The prepared electrode showed voltammetric responses with high sensitivity and selectivity for Tyr, DA and UA in optimal conditions, which makes it very suitable for simultaneous determination of these compounds. The calibration curves for Try, DA and UA were linear for the concentrations of each species. The proposed voltammetric approach was also applied to the determination of Tyr concentration in human serum as a real sample.

This work reports the advantages of using glassy carbon electrodes modified with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) dispersed in polyethylenimine (PEI). The presence of MWCNTs wrapped by PEI largely facilitated the strong adsorption of uric acid (UA) and allowed its highly sensitive and selective quantification even in the presence of high excess of ascorbic acid. The selected conditions for the electrochemical sensing were 5 s accumulation at ?0.300 V under stirring and quantification in a 0.050 M phosphate buffer solution pH 7.40 by differential pulse voltammetry adsorptive‐stripping after medium exchange. The platform allowed the successful application in the quantification of UA in urine.

In this paper, the use of a carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified by (E)‐3‐((2‐(2,4‐dinitrophenyl)hydrazono)methyl)benzene‐1,2‐diol (DHB) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs) for the determination of glutathione (GSH), uric acid (UA) and penicillamine (PA) is described. Initially, cyclic voltammetry was used to investigate the redox properties of the modified electrode in phosphate buffer. Next, the electrocatalytic oxidation of GSH via EC′ mechanism at the modified electrode was described. At the optimum pH of 7.0, the oxidation of GSH occurs at a potential that is 530 mV less positive than that of an unmodified carbon paste electrode. The values of the diffusion coefficient (D=2.5×10^?6 cm² s^?1) and the catalytic rate constant (k=1.7×10³ M^?1 s^?1) were calculated for GSH, using chronoamperometry. Based on differential pulse voltammetry, the oxidation of GSH exhibited a dynamic range between 0.4 and 700.0 µM and a detection limit (3σ) of 70.0 nM. Also, simultaneous determination of GSH, UA and PA was described at the modified electrode. Finally, this method was used for the determination of these substances in synthetic solutions and blood serum samples.

This work describes the development, electrochemical characterization and utilization of a cobalt phthalocyanine modified carbon nanotube electrode for the quantitative determination of dopamine in 0.2 mol L^?1 phosphate buffer contaminated with high concentration of ascorbic acid. The electrode surface was analyzed by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy which showed a modified surface presenting a charge transfer resistance of 500 Ω, against the 16.46 kΩ value found for the bare glassy carbon surface. A pseudo rate constant value of 5.4×10^?4 cm s^?1 for dopamine oxidation was calculated.

Exfoliated graphite electrodes have been used to detect uric acid at neutral pHs, by following its oxidation. A linear range of 5–53 μM and a detection limit of 5 μM are observed at a pH of 7.0. Uric acid was found to be selectively adsorbed on exfoliated graphite surface in the presence of excess ascorbic acid. This leads to its selective determination in the presence of ascorbic acid. Simultaneous detection of uric acid, dopamine and ascorbic acid has also been demonstrated on exfoliated graphite electrodes in a pH 7 buffer.

A promising composite‐modified glassy carbon electrode is fabricated by electrodeposition of mono‐dispersed gold nanoparticles onto carbon nanotubes (AuNPs/CNTs/GCE). The electroanalysis of Tramadol (TRA) was achieved by different electrochemical techniques. The effect of different parameters including pH, concentration and potential scan on the oxidation current signal of TRA was investigated. Large excess of ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) with a maximum molar ratio of 1/1000 and 1/100, respectively, did not interfere with the response of TRA. The detection limit with high sensitivity is 68 nM. TRA was successfully determined in pharmaceutical dosage forms, without any pretreatment of the samples.     

Selective Voltammetric Detection of Uric Acid in the Presence of Ascorbic Acid at Well‐Aligned Carbon Nanotube Electrode

The voltammetric behaviors of uric acid (UA) and L ‐ascorbic acid (L ‐AA) were studied at well‐aligned carbon nanotube electrode. Compared to glassy carbon, carbon nanotube electrode catalyzes oxidation of UA and L ‐AA, reducing the overpotentials by about 0.028 V and 0.416 V, respectively. Based on its differential catalytic function toward the oxidation of UA and L ‐AA, the carbon nanotube electrode resolved the overlapping voltammetric response of UA and L ‐AA into two well‐defined voltammetric peaks in applying both cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), which can be used for a selective determination of UA in the presence of L ‐AA. The peak current obtained from DPV was linearly dependent on the UA concentration in the range of 0.2 μM to 80 μM with a correlation coefficient of 0.997. The detection limit (3δ) for UA was found to be 0.1 μM. Finally, the carbon nanotube electrode was successfully demonstrated as a electrochemical sensor to the determination of UA in human urine samples by simple dilution without further pretreatment.     

The Influence of Gold Nanoparticles on Simultaneous Determination of Uric Acid and Ascorbic Acid

A three-dimensional L-cysteine (L-cys) monolayer assembled on gold nanoparticles (GNP) providing simultaneous detection of uric acid (UA) and ascorbic acid (AA) was studied in this work. The cyclic voltammetry demonstrated that, at a bare glassy carbon electrode (GCE) or planar gold electrode, the mixture of UA and AA showed one overlapped oxidation peak; whereas when the electrode was modified with GNP, the oxidation peaks for UA and AA were separated. While a GNP modified electrode was further modified with L-cys monolayer (L-cys/GNP/GCE), namely, three-dimensional L-cys monolayer, a better separation for UA and AA response was obtained. Interestingly, the L-cys monolayer-modified planar gold electrode presented a block effect on the oxidation of AA, which was facilitated by the three-dimensional L-cys monolayer attributed to its distinct structure. The pH of solution presented a noticeable effect on the separation of UA and AA at GNP modified electrodes with or without L-cys monolayer. Wide concentration ranges from 2 × 10^?6?1 × 10^?3 M to UA and 2 × 10^?6?8 × 10^?4 M to AA could be obtained at L-cys/GNP/GCE.
