Differential Pulse Voltammetric Determination of Uric Acid on Carbon‐Coated Iron Nanoparticle Modified Glassy Carbon Electrodes

A carbon‐coated iron nanoparticles (CIN, a new style fullerence related nanomaterial) modified glassy carbon electrode (CIN/GCE) has been developed for the determination of uric acid (UA). Electrochemical behaviors of UA on CIN/GCE were explored by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). It was found that the voltammetric response of UA on CIN/GC was enhanced dramatically because of the strong accumulation effect of CIN and the large working area of the CIN/GC electrode. The parameters including the pH of supporting electrolyte, accumulation potential and time, that govern the analytical performance of UA have been studied and optimized. The DPV signal of UA on CIN/GCE increased linearly with its concentration in the range from 5.0×10^?7 to 2.0×10^?5 M, with a detection limit of 1.5×10^?7 M (S/N=3). The CIN/GCE was used for the determination of UA in samples with satisfactory results. The proposed CIN/GCE electrochemical sensing platform holds great promise for simple, rapid, and accurate detection of UA.

Electrochemical Detection of Alloxan on Reduced Graphene Oxide Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

Alloxan is a toxic reagent that strongly induces the diabetes by destroying insulin‐producing β‐cells in the pancreas of living organisms. The reduction product of alloxan is dialuric acid, which is responsible for the intracellular generation of ROS to enhance the stress in living cells to cause kidney disease or diabetic nephropathy. Herein, we studied for the first time the electrochemical properties of alloxan on reduced graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode (rGO/GCE) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at pH 7. The obtained results were compared with graphene oxide modified GCE (GO/GCE) and bare GCE surfaces. The modified rGO/GCE showed well defined redox couple with 10 fold increase in both reduction as well as oxidation peak current for alloxan than that of GO/GCE and bare GCE. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique shows the linear increase in both oxidation and reduction peak current of alloxan in the range of 30 μM to 3 mM with LOD of 1.2 μM. An amperometric signal of alloxan is also increases with respect to each addition of 50 μM of alloxan on rGO/GCE at constant potential of ?0.05 V. The linear range of alloxan is observed between 50 μM to 750 μM (S/N=3). This kind of rGO/GCE surface is more suitable platform or sensor matrix for estimating unknown concentration of alloxan molecule in the real biological systems.

Differential Pulse Voltammetric Determination of L-Cysteine After Cyclic Voltammetry in Presence of Catechol with Glassy Carbon Electrode

An electrochemical method of determination of cysteine has been developed in the solution containing catechol as the indicator. Nucleophilic addition of the thiol species to the electrogenerated o-quinone results in the formation of o-quinone-cysteine adducts that easily accumulate use at the surface of the electrode in the acidic solution. Therefore, the use of cyclic voltammetry leads to the amplification of the o-quinone-cysteine adduct's reductive current. As cyclic voltammetry was performed prior to differential pulse voltammetry, the peak of o-quinone-cysteine could be separated preferentially from o-quinone in the differential pulse voltammogram and the selectivity of the method has been assessed with no interference from ascorbic acid, glycine, L-tyrosine, or L-lysine. The magnitude of o-quinone-cysteine peak is proportional to the concentration of cysteine, and thus it can be exploited to determine cysteine within the injection. The results were consistent with those obtained by means of HPLC analysis.
