电聚合烟酰胺制备电化学传感器：同时测定多巴胺、尿酸和抗坏血酸

用循环伏安法（CV）选择不同电位区间来电聚合烟酰胺（NA）得到了两种聚合物膜修饰电极：poly-niacinamide/GCE (poly-NA/GCE)和poly- nicotinic acid /GCE (poly-NC/GCE)。这两电极都具有显著电化学催化作用,能明显地降低多巴胺（DA）、尿酸（UA）和抗坏血酸(AA)的氧化过电位,并在混合溶液中使这些物质的氧化峰电位距离足够大,可进行三物质的同时测定。poly-NC/GCE的电催化性能更好一些,用差分脉冲伏安法（DPV）测定抗坏血酸,线性范围为75–3000 µmol L-1,电流灵敏度为5.6 mA•L•mol-1;测定多巴胺,线性范围为0.37 – 16 µmol L-1,电流灵敏度为1140 mA•L•mol-1; 测定尿酸,线性范围为0.74 – 230 µmol L-1,电流灵敏度为102 mA•L•mol-1。该电极具有很高的灵敏度、选择性和抗污染能力。     

花生壳碳基固体酸催化环己烯与甲酸酯化反应(英文)

碳基固体酸是一种可替代液体质子酸的无定形碳材料,具有酸密度大、催化活性高等优点.花生壳是农业废弃物,以其为原料制备碳基固体酸具有成本低、原料可再生和环境友好等优点.甲酸环己酯是重要的化工产品,可用于香料和涂料工业.传统的甲酸环己酯制备方法是以环己醇和甲酸为原料,在酸催化条件下进行酯化反应而得.近年来,随着环己烯的大规模生产,利用环己烯与甲酸直接酯化制备甲酸环己酯引起广泛关注.此外,甲酸环己酯还可通过水解反应转变为环己醇.环己醇可以进一步转化为己二酸和己内酰胺,从而用于化纤工业中尼龙-6和尼龙-66的生产.目前,工业上采用环己烯水合反应制备环己醇,由于热力学限制,并受到环己烯与水相容性差的影响,环己烯单程转化率仅为~10%,循环量较大,能耗很高.以环己烯为原料,通过甲酸环己酯制备环己醇克服了上述环己烯直接水合的缺点,具有很好的发展前景.我们研究组使用HZSM-5分子筛作为催化剂,采用"一锅法"由环己烯经甲酸环己酯制备环己醇,环己醇收率可达40%.但是环己烯在酸性条件下可发生低聚反应,生成的副产物会堵塞HZSM-5孔道,造成催化剂失活.本文在前述研究基础上,以花生壳为原料,经过碳化、磺化过程制备得到了碳基固体酸PSCSA.采用傅里叶变换红外光谱(FT-IR)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、X射线衍射(XRD)、拉曼光谱(Raman)、热重分析(TG)、X射线光电子能谱(XPS)和元素分析等方法表征了PSCSA的结构、微观形貌、热稳定性以及酸性质,考察了其催化环己烯与甲酸酯化反应性能,并与几种常见的固体酸催化剂进行了比较.FT-IR结果显示,经磺化后,PSCSA表面出现了–SO3H和–COOH基团.XPS结果则说明PSCSA表面所有的S元素均属于–SO3H,可利用元素分析测定S含量,进而得到–SO3H密度.此外,由于花生壳属于天然物质,成分并不均一,因此PSCSA的SEM照片中不同部位颗粒的微观形貌差异较大.采用PSCSA作为催化剂,考察了其催化环己烯与甲酸酯化反应性能,优化了反应条件.在酸/烯摩尔比为3/1,PSCSA用量0.07 g/mL环己烯,413 K反应1 h,环己烯转化率为88.4%,甲酸环己酯选择性为97.3%;副产物包括环己醇、二聚环己烯和环己基醚等.比较了PSCSA与几种常用固体酸如HZSM-5、离子交换树脂Amberlyst-15和Nafion NR50的催化性能,其中,Amberlyst-15催化性能最优,在393 K下反应,环己烯转化率亦达91.5%,甲酸环己酯选择性98.1%;但是,高昂的价格限制了其在工业上的大规模应用.与HZSM-5相比,PSCSA催化的环己烯与甲酸酯化反应的初始速率较低,反应时间超过30 min后,环己烯转化率迅速增加.在本反应中,PSCSA在甲酸存在条件下发生溶胀,使得大量的甲酸分子插入到碳材料本体中;而环己烯与甲酸具有较好的相容性,因此环己烯可以进入到碳材料本体中,与活性中心–SO3H充分接触,从而具有较高的反应速率.并且,由于溶胀需要一定的时间,在反应初期溶胀不充分时,环己烯、甲酸与活性中心接触有限,因此反应较慢;反应一定时间后,PSCSA充分溶胀,更多的–SO3H参与到反应中,反应速率加快.PSCSA重复使用性较好,第3次使用时环己烯转化率为68.6%;继续使用,催化剂不再失活.PSCSA在反应初期失活是–SO3H流失造成的.构成PSCSA的多环芳香烃可以部分溶解到溶剂中,进而带走其包含的–SO_3H.PSCSA的后期活性稳定则说明可以流失的活性中心是有限的.     

A Simple Approach to Simultaneous Electroanalytical Quantification of Acetaminophen and Tramadol Using a Boron‐doped Diamond Electrode in the Existence of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate

The present work describes the individual, selective and simultaneous quantification of acetaminophen (ACP) and tramadol hydrochloride (TRA) using a modification‐free boron‐doped diamond (BDD) electrode. Cyclic voltammetric measurements revealed that the profile of the binary mixtures of ACP and TRA were manifested by two irreversible oxidation peaks at about +1.04 V (for ACP) and +1.61 V (for TRA) in Britton‐Robinson (BR) buffer pH 3.0. TRA oxidation peak was significantly improved in the presence of anionic surfactant, sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), while ACP signal did not change. By employing square‐wave stripping mode in BR buffer pH 3.0 containing 8×10^?4 mol L^?1 SDS after 30 s accumulation under open‐circuit voltage, the BDD electrode could be used for quantification of ACP and TRA simultaneously in the ranges 1.0–70 μg mL^?1 (6.6×10^?6–4.6×10^?4 mol L^?1) and 1.0–70 μg mL^?1 (3.3×10^?6–2.3×10^?4 mol L^?1), with detection limits of 0.11 μg mL^?1 (7.3×10^?7 mol L^?1) and 0.13 μg mL^?1 (4.3×10^?7 mol L^?1), respectively. The practical applicability of the proposed approach was tested for the individual and simultaneous quantification of ACP and/or TRA in the pharmaceutical dosage forms.     

Electrochemical Study of Gold Microelectrodes Modified with PEDOT to Quantify Uric Acid in Milk Samples

A gold microelectrode (10 μm diameter) with an electropolymerized layer of poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) was used to quantify uric acid and investigate the antioxidant profile of milk and flavored milks. Comparisons were made with a bare gold microelectrode and a PEDOT‐glassy carbon macroelectrode (3 mm diameter). Two different electropolymerization processes were undertaken in an aqueous and an organic solution, and superior polymer growth was observed for PEDOT polymerized in lithium perchlorate/propylene carbonate. In the presence of a ferri/ferrocyanide redox couple, diffusion‐controlled redox peaks were observed with the PEDOT‐gold microelectrode rather than the plateau current typical of a bare microelectrode. Likewise, an anodic peak for uric acid was observed at the high surface‐area PEDOT‐gold microelectrode, with evidence for pre‐adsorption of uric acid at the electrode. The linear concentration range for uric acid standards was from 6 to 200 μM, and the limit of detection, limit of quantification, and sensitivity were determined to be 7 μM, 24 μM, and 397 μAμM^?1cm², respectively. Cyclic voltammograms of chocolate and espresso flavored milks exhibited significant contributions from the phenolic compounds present. Peak separation was more clearly defined using the PEDOT‐microelectrode compared to a PEDOT‐glassy carbon macroelectrode.     

Poly(pyridine‐3‐boronic acid)/Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes Modified Glassy Carbon Electrodes for Simultaneous Determination of Ascorbic Acid, 3,4‐Dihydroxyphenylacetic Acid and Uric Acid

Poly(pyridine‐3‐boronic acid) (PPBA)/multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) composite modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was used for the simultaneous determination of ascorbic acid (AA), 3,4‐dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) and uric acid (UA). The anodic peaks for AA, DOPAC and UA at the PPBA/MWCNTs/GCE were well resolved in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4). The electrooxidation of AA, DOPAC and UA in the mixture solution was investigated. The peak currents increase with their concentrations increasing. The detection limits (S/N=3) of AA, DOPAC and UA are 5 µM, 3 µM and 0.6 µM, respectively.     

Utilizing two detectors in the measurement of trichloroacetic acid in human urine by reaction headspace gas chromatography

A reaction headspace gas chromatography (HS‐GC) technique was investigated for quantitatively analyzing trichloroacetic acid in human urine. This method is based on the decomposition reaction of trichloroacetic acid under high‐temperature conditions. The carbon dioxide and chloroform formed from the decomposition reaction can be respectively detected by the thermal conductivity detection HS‐GC and flame ionization detection HS‐GC. The reaction can be completed in 60 min at 90°C. This method was used to quantify 25 different human urine samples, which had a range of trichloroacetic acid from 0.52 to 3.47 mg/L. It also utilized two different detectors, the thermal conductivity detector and the flame ionization detector. The present reaction HS‐GC method is accurate, reliable and well suitable for batch detection of trichloroacetic acid in human urine.     

Voltammetric Determination of Uric Acid at a Fullerene‐C60‐Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

Glassy carbon electrode modified by microcrystals of fullerene‐C₆₀ mediates the voltammetric determination of uric acid (UA) in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA). Interference of AA was overcome owing to the ability of pretreated fullerene‐C₆₀‐modified glassy carbon electrode. Based on its strong catalytic function towards the oxidation of UA and AA, the overlapping voltammetric response of uric acid and ascorbic acid is resolved into two well‐defined voltammetric peaks with lowered oxidation potential and enhanced oxidation currents under conditions of both linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and Osteryoung square‐wave voltammetry (OSWV). At pH 7.2, a linear calibration graph is obtained for UA in linear sweep voltammetry over the range from 0.5 μM to 700 μM with a correlation coefficient of 0.9904 and a sensitivity of 0.0215 μA μM^?1 . The detection limit (3σ) is 0.2 μM for standard solution. AA in less than four fold excess does not interfere. The sensitivity and detection limit in OSWV were found as 0.0255 μA μM^?1 and 0.12 μM, for standard solution respectively. The presence of physiologically common interferents (i.e. adenine, hypoxanthine and xanthine) negligibly affects the response of UA. The fullerene‐C₆₀‐modified electrode exhibited a stable, selective and sensitive response to uric acid in the presence of interferents.     

Simultaneous analysis of small organic acids and humic acids using high performance size exclusion chromatography

An accurate and fast method for simultaneous determination of small organic acids and much larger humic acids was developed using high performance size exclusion chromatography. Two small organic acids, i.e. salicylic acid and 2,3‐dihydroxybenzoic acid, and one purified humic acid material were used in this study. Under the experimental conditions, the UV peaks of salicylic acid and 2,3‐dihydroxybenzoic acid were well separated from the peaks of humic acid in the chromatogram. Concentrations of the two small organic acids could be accurately determined from their peak areas. The concentration of humic acid in the mixture could then be derived from mass balance calculations. The measured results agreed well with the nominal concentrations. The detection limits are 0.05 mg/L and 0.01 mg/L for salicylic acid and 2,3‐dihydroxybenzoic acid, respectively. Applicability of the method to natural samples was tested using groundwater, glacier, and river water samples (both original and spiked with salicylic acid and 2,3‐dihydroxybenzoic acid) with a total organic carbon concentration ranging from 2.1 to 179.5 mg C/L. The results obtained are promising, especially for groundwater samples and river water samples with a total organic carbon concentration below 9 mg C/L.

Application of a Carbon‐Paste Electrode Modified with 2,7‐Bis(ferrocenyl ethyl)fluoren‐9‐one and Carbon Nanotubes for Voltammetric Determination of Levodopa in the Presence of Uric Acid and Folic Acid

A carbon‐paste electrode modified with 2,7‐bis(ferrocenyl ethyl)fluoren‐9‐one and carbon nanotubes was used for the sensitive voltammetric determination of levodopa (LD). The electrochemical response characteristics of the modified electrode toward LD, uric acid (UA) and folic acid (FA) were investigated. The results showed an efficient catalytic activity of the electrode for the electrooxidation of LD, which leads to lowering its overpotential by more than 320 mV. The modified electrode exhibits an efficient electron mediating behavior together with well‐separated oxidation peaks for LD, UA and FA. Also, the modified electrode was used for determination of LD in some real samples.     

Selective and Sensitive Electrochemical Sensor for L‐Methionine at Physiological pH Using Functionalized Triazole Polymer Film Modified Electrode

This communication describes the determination of an essential amino acid, L ‐methionine (L ‐Met) in the presence of important interferents, ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) at physiological pH using a glassy carbon electrode modified with an electropolymerized film of 3‐amino‐5‐mercapto‐1,2,4‐triazole (p‐AMTa). The bare glassy carbon electrode fails to show a voltammetric signal for L ‐Met in the presence of AA and UA at pH 7.2. However, the p‐AMTa electrode separates the voltammetric signals of AA, UA and L ‐Met with pronounced oxidation currents. The amperometric current of L ‐Met was increased linearly from 1.0×10^?7 to 1×10^?4 M and the detection limit was found to be 4.12×10^?10 M (S/N=3).     

Autooxidative Activity of Chlorogenic Acid and Damage to DNA

The interaction of chlorogenic acid with double‐stranded calf thymus DNA was investigated in solution by cyclic voltammetry at a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The different working electrodes were prepared by covering solution containing different components onto the surface of GCE. The autooxidative activity of chlorogenic acid and inducement of DNA damage were evaluated by employing the prepared working electrode in pH 5.0, 0.10 M acetate buffer solution with differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The influences of temperature and metal ions (cupric ions) on the extent of DNA damage were examined. Chlorogenic acid possessed autooxidative activity and could induce DNA damage under certain conditions. The increasing temperature and existing cupric ions could enhance the autooxidative capability of chlorogenic acid and enlarge the extent of DNA damage. It was possible that the DNA damage induced by chlorogenic acid preferentially took place at guanosine‐containing segments, with the formation of 8‐oxo‐deoxyguanosine (a biomarker of DNA oxidative damage). A mechanism on the autooxidative activity of chlorogenic acid and inducing DNA damage was proposed.     

胆碱与谷氨酸共价单层混合修饰玻碳电极的制作与表征及其测定亚硝酸根的分析应用

A choline and L-glutamic acid mixed monolayer covalently modified glassy carbon electrode (Ch-Glu/GCE) was fabricated and characterized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry (CV). It provided an excellent example of mixed covalent monolayer modification of carbon electrodes with alkanol and amino acid, and also a facile means for altering the interfacial architecture. The Ch-Glu/GCE displayed good catalytic activity toward the oxidation of nitrite anions. Differential pulse voltammetry was used for determination of nitrite at the Ch-Glu/GCE. The Ch-Glu/GCE showed higher capability for restraint of pollutions than a simple Ch modified electrode or a simple Glu modified electrode.     

The effect of surface modification with nitric acid on the mechanical and tribological properties of carbon fiber‐reinforced thermoplastic polyimide composite

Polyacrylamideacrylate (PAN)‐based carbon fibers were submitted to nitric acid oxidation treatments to improve the interfacial adhesion of the carbon fiber (CF)‐reinforced polyimide (CF/PI) composite. The carbon fiber surfaces were characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Nitric acid oxidation not only affects the oxygen concentration but also produces an appreciable change in the nature of the chemical functions, namely the conversion of hydroxy‐type oxygen into carboxyl functions. Nitric acid oxidation treatment modifies the element constituting the fiber, the nitrogen concentration being about 1.2 times higher at the fiber external surface compared to the untreated one. The mechanical and tribological properties of the polymide (PI) composites reinforced by the carbon fibers treated with nitric acid oxidation were investigated. Results showed that the tensile strength of the CF/PI composites improved remarkably due to nitric acid treatment along with enhancement in friction and wear performance.

Simultaneous Determination of Ascorbic Acid,Dopamine and Uric Acid Based on Gold Nanoparticles‐PTCA‐Cys Composites Modified Electrodes

In this study, a nanocomposite of 3, 4, 9, 10‐perylenetetracarboxylic acid and L‐cysteine (PTCA‐Cys) with satisfactory water‐solubility and film‐forming ability was prepared and worked as substrate for modifying the glassy carbon electrode. Then, gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were immobilized to achieve a PTCA‐Cys‐AuNPs modified electrode which provided more reaction positions on the sensor. Scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, cyclic voltammetry and different pulse voltammetry were employed to characterize the assembly process of the sensor. The constructed sensor displayed desirable sensitivity, selectivity and stability towards the simultaneous detection of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). Under the optimal experimental conditions, the oxidation peaks of AA, DA and UA appeared at 64, 240 and 376 mV, respectively. The corresponding linear response ranges were 3.2–435, 0.04–100 and 0.80–297 μM, and the detection limits were 1.1, 0.010 and 0.27 μM (S/N=3), respectively.

Electrochemical Behavior of Chloranil Chemically Modified Carbon Paste Electrode. Application to the Electrocatalytic Determination of Ascorbic Acid

A p‐chloranil modified carbon paste electrode was constructed and the electrochemical behavior of this electrode was studied in the aqueous solution with different pH. From the E_1/2–pH diagram for this compound the values of formal potential E^0' and pK_a of some different redox and acid‐base couples depending on the solution pH were estimated. The diffusion coefficient, D, value for p‐chloranil was estimated 1.5×10^?7 cm² s^?1. It has been shown by direct current cyclic voltammetry and double potential step chronoamperometry, that this p‐chloranil incorporated carbon paste electrode, can catalyze the oxidation of ascorbic acid in the aqueous buffered solution. Under the optimum condition (pH 7.00), the oxidation of ascorbic acid at the surface of such an electrode occurs at a potential about 325 mV less positive than that at an unmodified carbon past electrode. The catalytic oxidation peak currents was linearly dependent on the ascorbic acid concentration and a linear calibration curve was obtained in the range of 7×10^?5 M–4×10^?3 M of ascorbic acid with a correlation coefficient of 0.9998. The limit of detection (3σ) was determined as 3.5×10 ^?5 M. This method was used as simple, selective and precise voltammetric method for determination of ascorbic acid in pharmaceutical preparations.     

2,2‐Bis(3‐Amino‐4‐hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane Modified Glassy Carbon Electrodes as Selective and Sensitive Voltammetric Sensors. Selective Detection of Dopamine and Uric Acid

2,2‐bis(3‐Amino‐4‐hydroxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane (BAHHFP) was electro‐polymerized oxidatively on glassy carbon by cyclic voltammetry. The activity of the modified electrode towards ascorbic acid (AA), uric acid (UA) and dopamine (DA) was characterized with cyclic voltammetry and differential puls voltammetry (DPV). The findings showed that the electrode modification drastically suppresses the response of AA and shifts it towards more negative potentials. Simultaneously an enhancement of reaction reversibility is seen for DA and UA. Unusual, selective preconcentration features are observed for DA when the polymer‐modified electrode is polarized at negative potential. In a ternary mixture containing the three analytes studied, three baseline resolved peaks are observed in DPV mode. At physiological pH 7.4, after 5 min preconcentration at ?300 mV, peaks positions were ?0.073, 0.131 and 0.280 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) for AA, DA and UA, respectively. Relative selectivities DA/AA and UA/AA were over 4000 : 1 and 700 : 1, respectively. DA response was linear in the range 0.05–3 μM with sensitivity of 138 μA μM^?1 cm^?2 and detection limit (3σ) of 5 nM. Sensitive quantification of UA was possible in acidic solution (pH 1.8). Under such conditions a very sharp peak appeared at 630 mV (DPV). The response was linear in the range 0.5–100 μM with sensitivity of 4.67 μA μM^?1 cm^?2 and detection limit (3σ) of 0.1 μM. Practical utility was illustrated by selective determination of UA in human urine.     

Electropreparation of Poly(benzophenone‐4) Film Modified Electrode and Its Electrocatalytic Behavior Towards Dopamine,Ascorbic Acid and Nitrite

The oxidation of benzophenone‐4 (2‐hydroxy‐4‐methoxybenzophenone‐5‐sulfonic acid) at glassy carbon electrode gives rise to stable redox active electropolymerized film during repetitive potential cycling between 0 to 1.3 V (Ag/AgCl). Cyclic voltammogram of poly(benzophenone‐4) film shows a redox couple with well‐defined peaks. The redox response of the modified electrode was found to be depending on the pH of the contacting solution. The peak potentials were shifted to a less positive region with increasing pH and the dependence of the peak potential was found to be 51 mV/pH. The electrocatalytic behavior of poly(benzophenone‐4) film modified electrode towards oxidation of dopamine, ascorbic acid and reduction of nitrite was investigated. The oxidation of dopamine and ascorbic acid occurred at less positive potential on poly(benzophenone‐4) film compared to bare glassy carbon electrode. For dopamine, the overpotential was reduced about 180 mV. Feasibility of utilizing poly(benzophenone‐4) film coated electrode in analytical estimation of dopamine, ascorbic acid and nitrite was also demonstrated.
