Studies on the electrochemistry of rutin and its interaction with bovine serum albumin using a glassy carbon electrode modified with carbon-coated nickel nanoparticles

We report on a glassy carbon electrode modified with carbon-coated nickel nanoparticles (C-Ni/GCE) that can be used to study the electrochemical properties of rutin and its interaction with bovine serum albumin (BSA) via cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. The effects of pH value, accumulation potential, accumulation time and reaction time were optimized. A pair of reversible peaks is found in the potential range of 0 to around 0.6 V at pH?5.0. Two linear response ranges (with different slopes) are found, one in the 2 to 210 nM concentration range, the other between 0.21 and 1.72 μM. The detection limit is as low as 0.6 nM. On addition of BSA to the rutin solution, a decrease of the current is observed that is proportional to the concentration of BSA. The binding constant and stoichiometric ratio were calculated.

Probing chiral amino acids at sub-picomolar level based on bovine serum albumin enantioselective films coupled with silver-enhanced gold nanoparticles

A novel electrochemical sensor with capability of probing chiral amino acids with gold nanoparticle (n-Au) labels using bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a chiral selector and subsequent signal amplification step by silver enhancement is introduced. The assay relies on the stereoselectivity of BSA embedded in ultrathin γ-alumina sol–gel film coated on the surface of the glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The recognition to the n-Au-labeled l- or d-amino acids for BSA-GCE could be monitored by the differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), while the DPV signal was greatly amplified by the anchored silver atoms on the n-Au, leading to a new way of quantitatively analysis of chiral amino acids electrochemically at sub-picomolar level. With l-tryptophan as the probe solute, the linear concentration range was from 1.33 × 10⁻¹² to 1 × 10⁻⁹ mol L⁻¹ and detection limit was 5 × 10⁻¹³ mol L⁻¹. For tryptophan enantiomers, the enantioselectivity coefficient 2.3 was obtained.     

Electrochemical Studies of Oxidation of Lomefloxacin and Interaction with Calf Thymus DNA at Nano‐SnO2/DHP Modified Electrode

A nanoparticle thin film modified electrode has been constructed using a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) coated with a nano‐tin oxide/dihexadecylphosphate (nano‐SnO₂/DHP). In pH 6.0 phosphate buffer solutions (PBS), lomefloxacin (LMF) appeared as an anodic peak with peak potential of 1.35 V at nano‐SnO₂/DHP modified electrode. In comparison with a bare GCE or a nano‐SnO₂ modified electrode, the nano‐SnO₂/DHP modified electrode exhibited an enhanced effectiveness for the oxidation of LMF. Cyclic voltammetry (CVs) coupled with fluorescence and UV/vis absorbance spectra techniques were used to study the interaction of LMF with Calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) in phosphate buffer solutions (PBS). The interaction of LMF and ctDNA could result in a considerable decrease in the peak currents and positive shift in the peak potential, as well as changes of fluorescence, UV/vis adsorption spectra and gel electrophoresis. All the acquired data showed that the new adduct between LMF and ctDNA was formed. Electrochemistry coupled with spectroscopy techniques could provide a relatively easy way to obtain useful information about the molecular mechanism of LMF‐ctDNA interactions.     

Electrodeposition of Copper Oxide Nanoparticles on Precasted Carbon Nanoparticles Film for Electrochemical Investigation of anti‐HIV Drug Nevirapine

This work describes the development of a novel electrochemical sensor based on electrodeposition of copper oxide nanoparticles onto carbon nanoparticle (CNP) film modified electrode for the analysis of the anti‐HIV drug, nevirapine (NEV). The electrochemical experiments were performed using linear sweep and cyclic voltammetry. Atomic force microscopy was applied for surface characterization of the deposited modifier film (CuO‐CNP) on glassy carbon electrode (GCE). No oxidation peak was observed for NEV on the bare GCE, but both CNP‐GCE and CuO‐CNP‐GCE showed a distinctive anodic response towards NEV with considerable enhancement (276‐fold and 350‐fold, respectively) compared to CuO‐GCE. The mechanism of the electrocatalytic process on the modified electrode surface was investigated by cyclic and linear sweep voltammetry at various potential sweep rates and pHs of the buffer solutions. The modified electrode exhibited linear dynamic range in three concentration intervals (0.1–0.8, 1–10 and 10–100 µM) with a detection limit of 66 nM. The stability, reproducibility, and repetitive usability exhibited by the proposed modified electrode are good enough to make it a suitable sensor for the determination of NEV in real samples with complex matrices such as human blood serum.     

A glucose biosensor using methyl viologen redox mediator on carbon film electrodes

A new methyl viologen-mediated amperometric enzyme electrode sensitive to glucose has been developed using carbon film electrode substrates. Carbon film electrodes from resistors fabricated by pyrolytic deposition of carbon were modified by immobilization of glucose oxidase through cross-linking with glutaraldehyde in the presence of bovine serum albumin. The mediator, methyl viologen, was directly immobilised with the enzyme together with Nafion cation-exchange polymer. The electrochemistry of the glucose oxidase/methyl viologen modified electrode was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The biosensor response to glucose was evaluated amperometrically; the detection limit was 20 μM, the linear range extended to 1.2 mM and the reproducibility of around 3%. When stored in phosphate buffer at 4 °C and used every day, the sensor showed good stability over more several weeks.     

Electrochemical study on oxidation of ofloxacin at nano-ZnS/poly (Styrene sulfonic acid sodium salt) modified electrode and its interaction with calf thymus DNA

A PSS/nano-ZnS thin film modified electrode has been fabricated on the surface of glassy carbon electrode (GCE). In pH 5.0 phosphate buffer solution (PBS), Ofloxacin (OFX) appeared as an anodic peak with the peak potential of 1.28 V at PSS/nano-ZnS film modified electrode. In comparison with a bare GCE or a nano-ZnS modified electrode, the PSS/nano-ZnS film modified electrode exhibited an enhanced effectiveness for the oxidation of OFX. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) coupled with fluorescence and UV-vis absorbance spectra techniques were used to study the interaction of OFX with Calf thymus DNA (ctDNA). The interaction of OFX and ctDNA could result in a considerable decrease in the peak currents and positively shift in the peak potential, as well as changes of fluorescence, UV-Vis adsorption spectra. All acquired data showed that the new adduct between OFX and ctDNA was formed. Published in Russian in Elektrokhimiya, 2009, Vol. 45, No. 3, pp. 289–295.

Protein Templated Au-CuO Bimetallic Nanoclusters toward Neutral Glucose Sensing

In this study, the application of bovine serum albumin (BSA) as a carrier to glucose-sensitive materials for the detection of glucose was proposed. Au-CuO bimetallic nanoclusters (Au-CuO/BSA) were prepared using BSA as a template, the new sensing material (Au-CuO/BSA/MWCNTs) was synthesized by mixing with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and applied to non-enzymatic electrochemical sensors to detect glucose stably and effectively under neutral condition. The scanning electron microscopy was used to investigate the morphology of the synthesized nanocomposite. The electrochemical properties of the sensor were studied by cyclic voltammetry. Glucose detection experiments show that Au-CuO/BSA/MWCNTs/Au electrode has good glucose detection ability, stability, accuracy, repeatability, and high selectivity in neutral environment. Unlike existing glucose-sensitive materials, due to the use of BSA, the composite material is firmly fixed to the electrode surface without a Nafion solution, which reduces the current blocking effect on the modified electrode. The composite materials can be effectively preserved for extremely long periods, higher than 80% activity is maintained at room temperature in a closed environment for 3 to 4 months, due to the special effects of BSA. In addition, the feasibility of using BSA in glucose-sensitive materials is confirmed.

The interaction between clarithromycin (CAM) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated using linear-sweep voltammetry in pH 7.4 phosphate buffer solution where CAM caused two irreversible reduction waves P2 and P3 on mercury electrode. The study showed that the formation constant and formation ratio for the interaction between CAM and BSA were 1.51×1012 and 3:1 for P2,4.53×105 and 1:1 for P3, respectively. The ion strength enhanced the hydrophobic interaction between CAM and BSA.     

Enantioselective recognition of penicillamine enantiomers on bovine serum albumin-modified glassy carbon electrode

As a natural chiral selector, bovine serum albumin (BSA) has been used to recognize penicillamine (Pen) enantiomers through electrochemical methods. The recognition and assay rely on the stereoselectivity of BSA embedded in ultrathin Al₂O₃ sol–gel film coated on the surface of glassy carbon electrode (BSA/GCE). The enantioselective interaction between Pen enantiomers and BSA was monitored by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy measurements, from which larger response signals were obtained from d-Pen. The factors influencing the performance of the modified biosensor were also investigated. The association constant (K) was calculated to be 1.93?×?10⁴?L?mol^?1 for d-Pen and 1.20?×?10³?L?mol^?1 for l-Pen. A good linear response was exhibited with the concentration of Pen enantiomers by BSA/GCE over the range of 1?×?10^?8–1?×?10^?1?mol?L^?1 with a detection limit of 3.31?×?10^?9?mol?L^?1.     

Comparative studies on electrogenerated chemiluminescence of luminol on gold nanoparticle modified electrodes

Comparative studies on the electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) behavior of luminol on various electrodes modified with gold nanoparticles of different size were carried out in neutral solution by conventional cyclic voltammetry (CV). The results demonstrated that the gold nanoparticle modified electrodes could generate strong luminol ECL in neutral pH conditions. The catalytic performance of gold nanoparticle modified electrodes on luminol ECL depended not only on the gold nanoparticles but also on the substrate. Gold electrode and glassy carbon electrode were the most suitable substrates for the self-assembly of gold nanoparticles. Moreover, the gold nanoparticle modified gold and glassy carbon electrode had satisfying stability and reproducibility and did not need tedious pretreatment of electrode surface before each measurement. It was also found that luminol ECL behavior depended on the size of gold nanoparticles. The most intense ECL signals were obtained on a 16-nm-diameter gold nanoparticle modified electrode. The modified electrode prepared by the self-assembly method exhibited much better catalytic effect on luminol ECL than that prepared by the electrically deposited method. The ECL behavior of luminol on a gold nanoparticle self-assembled gold electrode was also investigated by other transient-state electrochemical techniques, such as chronoamperometry, differential pulse voltammetry, normal pulse voltammetry, and square wave voltammetry. The strongest ECL intensity was obtained under square wave voltammetric condition.     

Simultaneous determination of uric acid, xanthine and hypoxanthine at poly(pyrocatechol violet)/functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes composite film modified electrode

A sensitive and selective electrochemical method was developed for simultaneous determination of uric acid (UA), xanthine (XA) and hypoxanthine (HX) based on a poly (pyrocatechol violet)/carboxyl functionalized multi-walled carbon nanotubes composite film modified electrode. The preparation and basic electrochemical performance of the novel composite film modified glassy carbon electrode were investigated in details. The electrochemical behaviors of UA, XA and HX at the modified electrode were studied by cyclic voltammetry. The results showed that this new electrochemical sensor exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidation of the three analytes. The mechanism of catalysis was discussed. The anodic peaks of the three species were well defined with lowered oxidation potential and enhanced oxidation peak currents, so the modified electrode was used for simultaneous voltammetric measurement of UA, XA and HX by differential pulse voltammetry. Under the optimum conditions, the detection limits were 0.16 μmol L(-1) for UA, 0.05 μmol L(-1) for XA and 0.20 μmol L(-1) for HX, respectively (S/N of 3). The proposed method has been successfully applied to simultaneous determination of UA, XA and HX in human serum samples.

Electrocatalytic Oxidation of Methanol on a Nickel‐Porphyrin IX Complex Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode in Alkaline Medium

Electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol on a glassy carbon disc electrode modified with Ni(II)‐hematoporphyrin IX, complex and conditioned by potential recycling in a limited range (between 100 and 600 mV vs. SCE) in 0.10 M NaOH solution, abbreviated as NiOHPME(A), was studied by cyclic voltammetry in alkaline medium. The results were compared with those obtained for a NiO modified glassy carbon electrode, NiOME, prepared in similar conditions. The findings show that the NiOHP film at NiOHPME(A) behaves as an efficient electrocatalyst for the oxidation of methanol in alkaline medium via Ni(III) species with the cross‐exchange reaction occurring throughout the layer at a low concentration of methanol and for a thin film of modifier. A plausible mechanism was proposed for catalytic oxidation of methanol at NiOHP modified electrode. Moreover, the effects of various parameters such as the scan rate, methanol concentration, thickness of NiOHP film and the real surface area of modified electrode on the oxidation of methanol were investigated. Finally, it has been shown that the NiOHPME(A) has a long‐term stability toward the oxidation of methanol.

The modified electrode is satisfied with us for its good sensibility and stability.     

Carbon Nanotube Immobilized Electrode Using Amphiphilic Phospholipid Polymer with Anti‐fouling and Dispersion Property for Electrochemical Analysis

A carbon nanotube (CNT)‐modified electrode was fabricated by dropping a dispersion of multi‐walled CNTs in water‐soluble and amphiphilic phospholipid polymer with both dispersing ability and anti‐biofouling property onto a Au electrode. A poly(2‐methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine‐co‐n‐butyl methacrylate) (PMB) composed from 50 mol% of 2‐methacryloxylethyl phosphorylcholine and 50 mol% of n‐butyl methacrylate (PMB50) was used as dispersing reagent for CNTs. The dispersion of water‐insoluble material by PMB50 and its antifouling effects in electrochemical analysis were investigated. The CNT‐modified electrode showed an anodic peak potential that was shifted negatively and an increase in the current value for the electrolytic oxidation of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide. In addition, the charge on PMB50 did not inhibit the electrochemical reaction of the redox compounds K₃[Fe(CN)₆], [Ru(NH₃)₆]Cl₃, and hydroxymethylferrocene. Cyclic voltammetry of K₃[Fe(CN)₆] in 4 % bovine serum albumin (BSA) using a bare Au electrode, the anodic peak current was reduced to 47 % of that without BSA. In contrast, the antifouling effect of the PMB50‐coated electrode meant that the current was only reduced to 70 % of that without BSA.

A simple and sensitive sandwich-type electrochemiluminescence immunosensor for α-1-fetoprotein (AFP) on a gold nanoparticles (nano-Au) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was developed by using Ru-silica (Ru(bpy)₃²⁺-doped silica) doped Au (Ru-silica@Au) composite as labels. The primary antibody, anti-AFP was first immobilized on the gold nanoparticles modified electrode due to the covalent conjugation, then the antigen and the Ru-silica@Au composite nanoparticles labeled secondary antibody was conjugated successively to form a sandwich-type immunocomplex through the specific interaction. The surfaces of Ru-silica nanoparticles were modified via the assemble of Au nanoparticles. The prepared Ru-silica@Au composite nanoparticles own the large surface area, good biocompatibility and highly effective electrochemiluminescence properties.
