Flow injection chemiluminescence determination of isoniazid using luminol and silver nanoparticles

The effect of silver colloidal nanoparticles (AgNPs) on the luminol–isoniazid system was investigated. It was found that AgNPs could act as a nanocatalyst on the luminol–isoniazid system to generate chemiluminescence (CL). The CL emission spectrum of the luminol–isoniazid–AgNPs system showed a peak with a maximum at 425 nm. It was suggested that the luminophor species was the excited state 3-aminophthalate. The reduction of dissolved O₂ to H₂O₂ by isoniazid and decomposition of H₂O₂ to the oxygen-related radicals were attributed to the catalytic effect of AgNPs. Under optimized conditions, the CL signal intensity was linear with the isoniazid concentration in the range of 10–1000 ng mL^{− 1}, with the correlation coefficient of 0.9996. The limit of detection was 2.7 ng mL^{− 1} isoniazid. The relative standard deviations for seven repeated measurements of 60 and 200 ng mL^{− 1} isoniazid were 1.4 and 2.4%, respectively. The effect of potent interfering compounds on the CL signal intensity of the proposed luminol–isoniazid–AgNPs system was investigated. The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of isoniazid in a pharmaceutical sample.

Flow-injection chemiluminescence determination of quinine using on-line electrogenerated cobalt(III) as oxidant

A novel chemiluminescence (CL) flow system for the determination of quinine is described. It is based on the direct chemiluminescence reaction of quinine and cobalt(III) in sulfuric acid medium. The unstable Co(III) was on-line electrogenerated by constant-current electrolysis. The chemiluminescence intensity was linear with a quinine concentration in the range of 0.1-100 mug ml(-1). The determination limit was 3.3x10(-8) g ml(-1). The whole process could be completed in 1 min. The proposed method is suitable for automatic and continuous analysis, and has been applied successfully to the analysis of quinine in pharmaceutical preparation.     

Flow-injection chemiluminescence determination of dihydralazine sulfate in serum using luminol and diperiodatocuprate (III) system

A novel flow-injection chemiluminescence (CL) method for the determination of dihydralazine sulfate (DHZS) is described. The method is based on the reaction of luminol and diperiodatocuprate (K₂[Cu(H₂IO₆)(OH)₂], DPC) in alkaline medium to emit CL, which is greatly enhanced by DHZS. The possible CL mechanism was first proposed based on the kinetic characteristic, CL spectrum and UV spectra. The optimum condition for the CL reaction was in detail studied using flow-injection system. The experiments indicated that under optimum condition, the CL intensity was linearly related to the concentration of DHZS in the range of 7.0 × 10^?9 to 8.6 × 10^?7 g mL^?1 with a detection limit (3σ) of 2.1 × 10^?9 g mL^?1. The proposed method had good reproducibility with the relative standard deviation 3.1% (n = 7) for 5.2 × 10^?8 g mL^?1 of DHZS. This method has the advantages of simple operation, fast response and high sensitivity. The special advantage of the system is that very low concentration of luminol can react with DPC catalyzed by DHZS to get excellent experiment results. And CL cannot be observed nearly when luminol with same concentration reacts with other oxidants, so luminol–DPC system has higher selectivity than other luminol CL systems. The method has been successfully applied to determine DHZS in serum.     

Flow-injection chemiluminescence determination of tetracyclines with in situ electrogenerated bromine as the oxidant

By designing a novel flow-through electrolytic cell (FEC), bromine was produced near to the surface of the platinum electrode by electrochemical oxidation of acidic KBr. The fast and weak chemiluminescence signal produced by the chemical reaction of the electrogenerated bromine with H₂O₂ was greatly enhanced by tetracyclines Based on these observations, a new, sensitive and simple electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) method for the determination of tetracyclines was developed. Under the optimum experimental conditions, the calibration graphs are linear over the range 3.0×10⁻⁸ to 5.0×10⁻⁵ g ml⁻¹ for tetracycline, 2.0×10⁻⁷ to 2.4×10⁻⁵ g ml⁻¹ for oxytetracycline and 1.0×10⁻⁷ to 5.0×10⁻⁵ g ml⁻¹ for chlortetracycline. The limits of detection (S/N=3) are 1.0×10⁻⁸ g ml⁻¹ for tetracycline, 7.0×10⁻⁸ g ml⁻¹ for oxytetracycline and 1.5×10⁻⁷ g ml⁻¹ for chlortetracycline. For the determination 5.0×10⁻⁷ g ml⁻¹ tetracycline, the relative standard deviation was <5%. The proposed method was used to determine tetracyclines in pharmaceutical formulations.

Flow-injection chemiluminescence sensor for determination of isoniazid in urine sample based on molecularly imprinted polymer

In this paper, molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) of isoniazid is synthesized through thermal radical copolymerization of metharylic acid (MAA) and ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) in the presence of isoniazid template molecules. A novel flow injection chemiluminescence sensor for isoniazid determination is developed by packing the isoniazid-MIP into the flow cell as recognition elements. Isoniazid could be selectively adsorbed by the MIPs and the adsorbed isoniazid was sensed by its great enhancing effect on the weak CL reaction between luminol and periodate which were mixed in the flow cell. The enhanced CL intensity is linear in the range 2x10(-9) to 2x10(-7) g/mL and the detection limit is 7x10(-10) g/mL (3sigma) isoniazid with a relative standard deviation 2.8% (n=9) for 8x10(-8) g/mL. The sensor is reversible and reusable. It has a great improvement in sensitivity and selectivity for CL analysis. As a result, the sensor has been successfully applied to determination of isoniazid in human urine. At the same time, the binding characteristic of the polymer to isoniazid was evaluated by batch method and the dynamic method, respectively.

The proposed method allows the measurement of chloroquine over the range of 3.0×10⁻⁷ to 1.0×10⁻⁵ mol l⁻¹. The detection limit is 8.6×10⁻⁸ mol l⁻¹, and the relative standard deviation for 1.0×10⁻⁶ mol l⁻¹ chloroquine (n=11) is 1.6%. The CL mechanism is also discussed.     

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.     

Direct determination of horseradish peroxidase encapsulated in liposomes by using luminol chemiluminescence.

Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) encapsulated in liposomes was directly detected by using luminol chemiluminescence (CL) with H2O2 without lysis of liposomes. At a low concentration of H2O2, the initial rate of HRP-catalyzed luminol CL in liposomes was slower than that of HRP-catalyzed luminol CL in a lipid-free bulk solution. The decrease in the initial rate of the CL reaction in liposomes was due to the membrane permeation of luminol and H2O2. At a high concentration of H2O2, the initial rate of the CL reaction in liposomes was the same as that in a lipid-free bulk solution. The CL measurement conditions in both a lipid-free bulk solution and in liposomes were optimized in the concentrations of luminol and H2O2 by measuring the CL response curves, in which only one peak appeared and the CL intensity was maximal. The CL intensity observed in HRP-catalyzed luminol CL in liposomes was a factor of seven greater than that observed in a lipid-free bulk solution. The CL intensity was dependent on the amount of HRP-encapsulated liposomes used. The detection limit in the direct detection of HRP encapsulated in liposomes was sensitive by a factor of 3 compared with that in HRP-catalyzed luminol CL in a lipid-free bulk solution.     

The mechanism of the electrogenerated chemiluminescence of luminol in aqueous alkaline solution

The mechanism of the electrogenerated chemiluminescence of luminol in aqueous alkaline solution based on the rotating ring—disc electrode system is discussed. The disc electrode is maintained at a negative potential and the ring electrode at a symmetrically changing double-step potential. Hydrogen peroxide generated at the disc electrode by the reduction of oxygen is immediately transported to the ring electrode because of electrode rotation. Hydrogen peroxide and luminol are oxidized at the ring electrode during the positive pulse of the double-step potential. These oxidation processes generate a superoxide radical and a luminol radical as intermediates. The luminol radical reacts with the superoxide radical (or oxygen) emitting light.     

Apparatus for mechanistic and analytical studies of the electrogenerated chemiluminescence of luminol

A new apparatus based on the rotating ring—disc electrode system is described. The symmetric double-step potential is connected to the ring electrode to oxidize luminol, while the disc electrode is maintained at a negative potential to reduce oxygen to hydrogen peroxide. Because of the electrode rotation, hydrogen peroxide is immediately transported to the ring electrode at which it reacts with luminol oxidation product to emit light. Preliminary electrogenerated chemiluminescence measurements indicate that the intensity of the chemiluminescence of luminol is highly dependent on the ring and disc electrode materials and that some metal ions have a catalytic or inhibitive effect on this luminescence reaction of luminol.     

Flow-injection chemiluminescence determination of polyphenols using luminol-NaIO4-gold nanoparticles system

It was found that gold nanoparticles with different sizes could enhance the chemiluminescence (CL) of the luminol-NaIO4 system in alkaline solution. The most intensive CL signals were obtained with gold nanoparticles in diameter of 4 nm and the CL intensity increased linearly with the concentration of gold nanoparticles. The studies of UV-vis spectra, CL spectra, effects of concentrations of luminol and periodate solution were carried out to explore the CL enhancement mechanism. Catechol, hydroquinone and resorcinol were found to inhibit the CL signals of the luminol-NaIO4 reaction catalyzed by gold nanoparticles, which made it applicable for the determination of these polyphenols. Under the selected experimental conditions, the detection limits (3sigma) were in the range of 2.1 x 10(-9) to 1.0 x 10(-10) g ml(-1), the relative standard deviation (R.S.D., n=11) were in the range of 1.7-2.9%. The method has been successfully applied to the determination of catechol in tap water and synthesized samples with satisfactory results.

The effects of analytical and flow-injection variables on these chemiluminescence systems and determination of both oxidants are discussed. The optimized method yielded 3sigma detection limits of 8x10(-8) and 5x10(-8) mol L(-1) for the sodium dichloroisocyanurate and trichloroisocyanuric acid, respectively. The optimum conditions were found to be as follows: NaOH, 1x10(-1) mol L(-1); luminol, 5x10(-3) mol L(-1); KI, 2x10(-3) mol L(-1) and flow rate, 3.5 mL min(-1).     

Flow-injection post chemiluminescence determination of atropine sulfate

A new post chemiluminescence (PCL) reaction was observed when atropine sulfate was injected into the reaction mixture after the finish of CL reaction of Ce(IV) and sodium sulfite. The possible mechanism for the PCL reaction was discussed via the investigation of the CL kinetic characteristics, the CL spectra, the UV absorption spectra and the fluorescence spectra of some related substances. The flow injection PCL method for the determination of atropine sulfate was established. The relative standard deviation (R.S.D.) was 2.8% (n = 11, c = 5.0 × 10⁻⁶ g mL⁻¹). The PCL intensity responded linearly to the concentration of atropine sulfate in the range 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ to 5.0 × 10⁻⁵ g mL⁻¹ with a linear correlation of 0.9947. The detection limit was 4 × 10⁻⁷ g mL⁻¹ atropine sulfate. The method had been applied to the determination of atropine sulfate in the tablets and the results were consistent with the method of Chinese pharmacopoeia.     

Flow-injection chemiluminescence determination of formaldehyde in water

A modification of the Trautz-Schorigin reaction into a flow-injection analysis configuration is described. Different approaches were used at the optimization of chemiluminescence determination of formaldehyde in water based on the reaction of formaldehyde, gallic acid and hydrogen peroxide in an alkaline solution. Detection system with a 218 μl chemiluminescence cell was optimized by both a one-variable-at-a-time method, and a modified simplex method. A calibration graph is linear in the concentration range 4 × 10⁻⁸ to 1 × 10⁻⁵ M HCHO. The detection limit of formaldehyde for a signal-to-noise ratio of 3 is 4 × 10⁻⁸ M. The relative standard deviations for 15 repeated measurements of 1 × 10⁻⁶ and 5 × 10⁻⁶ mol l⁻¹ HCHO are 4.32 and 3.33%, respectively. The analysis time is 1.5 min. The method was applied to the determination of formaldehyde in urban rainwater. A comparison of results found by proposed method with those obtained by fluorimetric reference method provided a good agreement.     

Lab-on-paper-based devices using chemiluminescence and electrogenerated chemiluminescence detection

As an analytical support, paper, being low cost, highly abundant, of high porosity, disposable or biodegradable, and easy to use, store, transport, and print, has excellent chemical compatibility with many applications. Since the first microfluidic paper-based analytical device (μ-PAD or lab-on-paper) was proposed, the paper-based assay has never attracted as much attention as it does now. There has recently been rapidly increasing interest in using sensitive luminescence methods, for example chemiluminescence (CL) and electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL), as the detection strategy for lab-on-paper devices. Because of their intrinsic characteristics, CL and ECL provide outstanding performance while retaining the simplicity, low cost, multifunctionality, versatility, flexibility, and disposability of μ-PADs. The objective of this review is to cover the development of lab-on-paper-based devices using CL and ECL detection, including fabrication of paper devices, construction of sensing interfaces, signal amplification strategies, external instruments used, and applications. We believe that lab-on-paper devices with CL and ECL detection methods will meet the diverse requirements of point-of-care diagnosis.
