Voltammetric determination of nicotinic acid by glassy-carbon electrode modified with multiwall carbon nanotubes

A glassy-carbon electrode modified with a thin film of multiwall carbon nanotubes is used for the determination of nicotinic acid (NA). At the electrode, the latter yields a well-defined and very sensitive oxidation peak at 0.21 V (SCE). Investigation of the electrochemical behavior of NA shows that the electrode significantly enhances the NA oxidation peak current, compared with the non-modified electrode. Based on this, a very sensitive and simple electrochemical method is proposed for the NA determination after the optimization of all experimental parameters. The oxidation peak current is proportional to the NA concentration over the range 2×10⁻⁷ to 4×10⁻⁵ M, and the detection limit is 8×10⁻⁸ M after a 4-min accumulation. The relative standard deviation of 5.4% for the successive determination of 1×10⁻⁶ MNA (n=10) indicates excellent reproducibility. The analysis method is successfully demonstrated using tablet samples. Published in Russian in Elektrokhimiya, 2006, Vol. 42, No. 2, pp. 190–195.

Electrochemical detection of parathion at a glassy-carbon electrode modified with hexadecane

A modified electrode, based on a hexadecane (C(16))-coated glassy-carbon electrode (GCE) has been developed for the determination of parathion. The electrochemical behavior of parathion was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The peak potential and peak current were found to depend on the supporting electrolyte and the pH of the buffer solution. The reduction currents for parathion were proportional to parathion concentration over the range 8x10(-8)-2x10(-5) mol L(-1). The detection limit was 2x10(-8) mol L(-1) parathion for an accumulation time of 30 s. The effects of organic and inorganic species on the determination of parathion were also studied. A procedure was developed to extract parathion from spiked soil samples using a mixture of dichloromethane and acetone as the extraction solvent. The complete extraction and analytical procedure are simple, inexpensive and rapid. Parathion was determined in a soil sample by use of linear scan voltammetry (LSV).

Study of carbon nanotubes-HRP modified electrode and its application for novel on-line biosensors

In this paper, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were successfully immobilized on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode by mixing with horse-radish peroxidase (HRP). The electrochemical behavior of H2O2 was also studied with the MWCNTs-HRP modified electrode as a working electrode. The MWCNTs-HRP modified electrode showed excellent response of reduction current for the determination of H2O2 at the potential of -300 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl). We assembled the MWCNTs-HRP modified electrode in a thin-layer flow cell and the H2O2 solution was continuously introduced into the cell with a syringe pump. We optimized the sensitivity of the H2O2 sensor by adjusting the working potential and the pH of the buffer solution. The peak current increased linearly with the concentration of H2O2 in the range 3.0 x 10(-7) to approximately 2.0 x 10(-4) mol L(-1). The detection limit is 1.0 x 10(-7) mol L(-1) (S/N = 3). The interferences from ascorbic acid, uric acid and other electroactive substances can be greatly excluded since the sensor can be operated at -300 mV. Stability and reproducibility of the MWCNTs-HRP chemically modified electrode were also studied in this paper. Fabricated with glucose and lactate oxidase, the MWCNTs-HRP electrode was also applied to prepare the on-line glucose and lactate biosensors because of the high sensitivity for the determination of H2O2.
