Determination of Phenolic Compounds Based on Co‐Immobilization of Methylene Blue and HRP on Multi‐Wall Carbon Nanotubes

This work evaluated an amperometric biosensor based on multi‐wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT), chemically modified with methylene blue (Met) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP), for detection of phenolic compounds. The dependences of the biosensor response due to the enzyme immobilization procedure, HRP amounts, pH and working potential were investigated. The amperometric response for catechol using the proposed biosensor showed a very wide linear response range (1 to 150 μmol L^?1), good sensitivity (50 nA cm^?2 μmol^?1 L), excellent operational stability (after 300 determinations the response remained at 97%) and very good storage stability (lifetime>3 months). Based on all these characteristics, it is possible to affirm that the material is promising for phenol detection due to its good electrochemical response and enzyme stabilization. The biosensor response for various phenolic compounds was investigated.     

Composite Multienzyme Amperometric Biosensors for an Improved Detection of Phenolic Compounds

A biosensor design, in which glucose oxidase and peroxidase are coimmobilized by simple physical inclusion into the bulk of graphite‐Teflon pellets, is reported for the detection of phenolic compounds. This design allows the “in situ” generation of the H₂O₂ needed for the enzyme reaction with the phenolic compounds, which avoids several problems detected in the performance of single peroxidase biosensors as a consequence of the presence of a high H₂O₂ concentration. So, a much lower surface fouling was found at the GOD‐HRP biosensor in comparison with a graphite‐Teflon‐HRP electrode, suggesting that the controlled generation of H₂O₂ makes more difficult the formation of polymers from the enzyme reaction products. The construction of trienzyme biosensors, in which GOD, HRP and tyrosinase were coimmobilized into the graphite‐Teflon matrix is also reported, and their performance was compared with that of GOD‐HRP bienzyme electrodes. The practical applicability of the composite multienzyme amperometric biosensors was evaluated by the estimation of the phenolic compounds content in waste waters from a refinery, and the results were compared with those obtained by using a colorimetric official method based on the reaction with 4‐aminoantipyrine.

Ionic Organic Film Sensor for Determination of Phenolic Compounds

This paper describes the development of a new sensor based on an ionic organic film. The amphiphilic molecule, 4‐[(4‐decyloxyphenyl)‐ethynyl]‐1‐methylpyridinium iodide (10PyI), which has liquid‐crystalline properties, was synthesized and applied in the construction of a GCE/10PyI sensor. Analytical parameters for caffeic acid, repeatability (4.8 %), reproducibility (2.8 %), linearity (two ranges: 9.9×10^?7 to 3.8×10^?5 mol L^?1 and 4.7×10^?5 to 9.9×10^?5 mol L^?1) and detection limits (9.0×10^?7 mol L^?1 and 8.7×10^?6 mol L^?1), were determined. The method was successfully applied in the determination of total phenolic compounds (TPC) in mate herb extracts.     

Stacked films immobilization of MBTH in nafion/sol-gel silicate and horseradish peroxidase in chitosan for the determination of phenolic compounds

The stacked-film immobilization of 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone (MBTH) in hybrid nafion/sol-gel silicate film and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in chitosan, performed in order to allow the determination of phenolic compounds, was investigated via an optical method. The stacked films were deposited onto a microscope glass slide by a spin-coating technique. The quinone or free radical product formed by the enzymatic reactions of phenolic compounds interacts with MBTH to form azo-dye products, which can be measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 500 nm. The color intensity of the product was found to increase in proportion to the phenolic concentration after 5 min of exposure. The response of the biosensor was linear over concentration ranges of 0.025–0.500, 0.010–0.070 and 0.050–0.300 mM for guaiacol, resorcinol and o-cresol, respectively, and gave detection limits of 0.010, 0.005 and 0.012 mM. The sensor exhibited good sensitivity and stability for at least two months.

Effect Of Temperature on the Sensitivity of Sandwich Enzyme Immunoassay with Fab'-Horseradish Peroxidase Conjugate

Abstract

Effect of temperature was examined on the sensitivity of sandwich enzyme immunoassay for human chorionic gonadotropin (hCC) with anti-hCG Fab'-horseradish peroxidase conjugates prepared by using three different reagents (N-succinimidyl 4-(N-maleimidomethyl) cyclohexane-l-carboxylate, glutaraldehyde and metaperiodate). The non-specific bindings of the conjugates to anti-hCC IgG-coated polystyrene balls were much lower at 20°C than at 37°C, and the specific bindings were slightly higher at 20°C than at 37°C. The lowest non-specific binding and the highest specific binding were obtained by incubation at 20°C with the maleimide conjugate. As a result, the sensitivity could be more easily improved by incubation at 20°C than at 37°C and the highest sensitivity was obtained with the maleimide conjugate. Similar results were also obtained for other macromolecular antigens such as human ferritin and α-fetoprotein.

Enzymatic Reactions for the Calorimetric Detection of Phenolic Compounds

This study furnished results on the enzymatic detection of phenolic compounds by means of a miniaturized heat-flow calorimeter (IC-calorimeter). Two enzymes were used: tyrosinase and peroxidase. Additionally to the investigations with the IC-calorimeter, measurements were carried out with a classical reaction calorimeter (LKB 8700) for the very slow reactions with tyrosinase. By way of contrast, the reactions with peroxidase are fast and seem more suitable for sensor application. The detection limit for the investigated phenolic compounds is of the order of 1 mmol l⁻¹ . This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.     

Development of an enzymeless biosensor for the determination of phenolic compounds

The construction of amperometric enzymeless biosensors for phenolic compounds determination, using carbon paste electrode modified with copper phtalocyanine (CuPc) and histidine (His), based on the chemistry of the dopamine β-monooxygenase (DβM) enzyme that catalyzes the hydroxylation of the dopamine and its analogs is shown. The modified carbon paste was evaluated on electrodes constructed in two ways: putting the paste into a cavity of a rotating disk electrode and a platinum slide electrode fixed into a glass tube. The sensor in hydrodynamic conditions presented a linear response range between 30 and 250 μmol l⁻¹, with a sensitivity of 4.6±0.1 nA l μmol⁻¹ cm⁻² for catechol, response time of 3 s and lifetime of about 50 days when stored at room temperature. The sensor in static conditions showed a linear response range from 40 to 250 μmol l⁻¹, with a sensitivity of 0.30±0.01 nA l μmol⁻¹ cm⁻² for catechol. The sensors presented the following relative response order for dopamine and some analog species: catechol>dopamine>guaiacol>serotonin>phenol.     

Voltammetric Electronic Tongue Based on Carbon Paste Electrodes Modified with Biochar for Phenolic Compounds Stripping Detection

Biochar is a charcoal produced from the biomass pyrolysis process that presents a highly porous and functionalized surface. In the present work an array of carbon paste electrodes (CPE) made of different forms of carbon (graphite, carbon nanotubes and activated biochar) was evaluated in the development of an electronic tongue for discrimination and stripping voltammetric determination of catechol (CAT), 4‐ethylcatechol (4‐EC) and 4‐ethylguaiacol (4‐EG) phenolic compounds. Morphological characterization of carbon materials and electrodes surfaces was performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and semi‐quantitative elemental composition by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) measurements were used for electrochemical characterization of electrodes. Cyclic voltammetry measurements were performed for the phenolic compounds evaluated using different concentrations. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed to evaluate the qualitative analysis. Quantitative data modeling was done using artificial neural networks (ANN). The proposed sensor array presented analytical potentiality allowing the distinction and determination of CAT, 4‐EC and 4‐EG by using chemometric processing. The method showed sensibility, reproducibility and a good linearity (R²>0.9940) for three compounds evaluated. Spontaneous preconcentration of three compounds was possible using all three sensors, which can allow the application of these as passive samplers for remote determinations of phenolic compounds in wine and food samples.     

A Comment on the Use of Colorimetric Determinations of Phenolic Compounds in Surface Water

Abstract

Total phenolic compound values were determined in samples of river water by means of the Folin-Ciocalteu colorimetric method, while HPLC with UV detection was used to identify individual phenols. Preconcentration was needed in all cases to meet the required detection limits. Given the absorption coefficients of the components, the error incurred when a curve calibrated against phenol only is used to evaluate a mixture was calculated.

Development of Electrochemical Biosensor Based on Nanostructured Carbon Materials for Paracetamol Determination

This work describes the development of a biosensor for paracetamol (PAR) determination based on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and laccase enzyme (LAC), which was immobilized by means of covalent crosslinking using glutaraldehyde. Voltammetric investigations were carried out by cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV). The biosensor was characterized by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FT‐IR). The results showed that the use of MWCNT/LAC composite increased the sensor sensitivity, compared to bare glassy carbon electrode. Factors affecting the voltammetric signals such as pH, ionic strength, scan rate and interferents were assessed. Linear range, limit of detection (LOD) and limit of quantitation (LOQ) obtained were 10–320 μmol L^?1, 7 μmol L^?1 and 10 μmol L^{? 1}, respectively. The developed biosensor was successfully applied to PAR determination in urine and pharmaceutical formulations samples, with recovery varying from 99.96 to 106.20 % in urine samples and a relative standard deviation less than 1.04 % for PAR determination in pharmaceutical formulations. Therefore, the MWCNT‐LAC/GCE exhibits excellent sensitivity and can be used to PAR determination as a viable alternative in clinical analyzes and quality control of pharmaceutical formulations, through a simple, fast and inexpensive methodology.     

Study of the Responses of a Sonogel‐Carbon Electrode Towards Phenolic Compounds

The electrochemical behavior of a sonogel‐carbon electrode towards nine phenolic compounds (chloro‐, nitro‐ and alkyl‐phenols) was studied; one of them (4‐chloro‐3‐methylphenol) was used to evaluate characteristics of the electrode, such as accumulation and cleaning procedure of the electrode surface, reproducibility of the measurements, and influence of time from fabrication on electrochemical response. A polyethyleneglycol‐modified sonogel‐carbon electrode was found to improve the electrochemical response towards the analyte. A linear relationship between peak height and concentration in the range 0.005–0.5 mg L^?1 was obtained, with a detection limit of 2.8 μg L^?1. The studies of electrochemical parameters, as well as interferences, are also included.
