Thin films of La2O3 were deposited onto glass substrates by ultrasonic spray pyrolysis. Their structural and morphological properties were characterized by X-ray diffraction, Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller and optical absorption techniques. The sensor displays superior CO2 gas sensing performance at a low operating temperature of 498 K. The signal change on exposure to 300 ppm of CO2 is about 75%, and the signal only drops to 91% after 30 days of operation. 相似文献

The authors have developed an electrochemical sensor for cadmium(II) that is based on the use of a conventional fluorine doped tin oxide (FTO) electrode modified with polymeric electrospun nanofibers consisting of polyamide 6 (PA6) and chitosan which were further modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The materials were characterized by infrared spectroscopy, thermal analysis (DSC and TGA), and scanning electron microscopy. The modified electrode was applied to the detection of Cd(II) by square wave voltammetry. Response is linear in the 25 to 75 μg ? L?1 Cd(II) concentration range, with a detection limit of 0.88 μg ? L?1. The relative standard deviations are 4.6% and 8.2% for intra- and inter-electrode measurements, respectively. Mercury(II), lead(II), and copper(II) did not significantly interfere. 相似文献

CdSe:Eu nanocrystals were successfully synthesized and characterized by transmission electron microscopy, X-ray powder diffraction, and X-ray photoelectric spectroscopy. The CdSe:Eu nanocrystals showed enhanced green electrochemiluminescence (ECL) intensity when compared to pure CdSe nanocrystals. Further, the nanocrystals were used to design an ECL immunosensor for the detection of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) that has a linear response over the 1.0 fg·mL?1 to 100 ng·mL?1 CEA concentration range with a 0.4 fg·mL?1 detection limit. The assay was applied to the determination of CEA in human serum samples. 相似文献

The work describes a hybrid electrochemical sensor for highly sensitive detection of the anesthetic lidocaine (LID). Porous carbon (PC) was synthesized from an isoreticular metal-organic framework-8 (IRMOF-8) and drop cast onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). A layer of a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) layer was then fabricated in situ on the modified GCE by electro-polymerization, with LID acting as the template and resorcinol as the functional monomer. Hexacyanoferrate is used as an electrochemical probe. The electrical signal (typically acquired at 0.335 V vs. SCE) increases linearly in the 0.2 pM to 8 nM LID concentration range, with a remarkable 67 fM detection limit (at an S/N ratio of 3). The sensor is stable and selective. Eventually, rapid and accurate detection of LID in spiked real samples was successfully realized. 相似文献

The authors report on a new approach for the determination of the breast cancer biomarker microRNA-155 (miRNA-155). It is based on the measurement of the fluorescence shift of oligonucleotide-templated copper nanoclusters (DNA-CuNC). A probe DNA was designed that acts as a template for the preparation of CuNC which, under 400 nm excitation, exhibit strong fluorescence enhancement at 490 nm and a 90 nm Stokes shift after binding to target miRNA-155 and formation of a DNA-RNA heteroduplex. Under the optimal conditions, the fluorescence of the DNA-CuNC increases with increasing concentration of miRNA-155 in the range from 50 pM to 10 nM, with a 11 pM detection limit. The assay has excellent selectivity over noncomplementary RNA. The method was applied to the determination of miRNA-155 in the presence of human plasma and saliva. 相似文献

Carbon polymer dots (CPDs) were prepared by a one-pot aqueous synthetic route from ascorbic acid and diethylenetriamine at room-temperature. The CPDs under 350-nm excitation exhibit blue fluorescence peaking at 430 nm with a quantum yield of 47%. Other features include an average diameter of 5 nm, a fluorescence that is independent of the excitation wavelength, good water dispersibility and photostability, and excellent biocompatibility. The CPDs are shown to be viable fluorescent probes for ferric ion which acts as a strong quencher. The response to Fe(III) is linear in the 0.2 to 10 μM concentration range, and the detection limit is 0.1 μM. The probe was applied to the determination of Fe(III) in environmental waters and to intracellular imaging of ferric ions in HeLa cells. 相似文献

Three-dimensional structures comprising polypyrrole nanowires (PPyNWs) and molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) were prepared by electropolymerization on the surfaces of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The modified GCE possesses both large surface area and good electrocatalytic activity for oxidizing dopamine (DA), and this leads to high sensitivity. The electropolymerized MIP has a large number of accessible surface imprints, and this makes the GCE more selective. Under optimal conditions and at a working voltage of typically 0.23 V (vs. SCE), the calibration plot is linear in the 50 nM to 100 μM DA concentration range, and the limit of detection is 33 nM. The sensor has been successfully applied to the analysis of DA in injections. 相似文献

Core-shell Au@Ag nanorods (Ag@GNRs) were synthesized and utilized to construct a voltammetric biosensor for trichloroacetic acid (TCA). The biosensor was prepared by immobilizing hemoglobin (Hb) on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) that was modified with the Ag@GNRs. Cyclic voltammetry revealed a pair of symmetric redox peaks, indicating that direct electron transfer occurs at the Hb on the Ag@GNR-film. The electron transfer rate constant is as high as 2.32 s?1. The good electrocatalytic capability and large surface area of the Ag@GNR-film is beneficial in terms of electron transfer between Hb and the underlying electrode. The modified GCE, best operated at ?0.4 V (vs. SCE), exhibits electrocatalytic activity toward TCA in the 0.16 μM to 1.7 μM concentration range, with a 0.12 μM detection limit (at an S/N ratio of 3). 相似文献

The authors describe a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) based aptasensor for the carcinogenic mycotoxin aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in a direct assay format. The aptamer is immobilized on the surface of a commercial sensor chip, and the SPR signal increases on binding of AFB1. The sensor chip can be fully regenerated by passing a flow of buffer over it upon which bound AFB1 dissociates from the aptamer. The biosensor works in the 0.4 nM to 200 nM AFB1 concentration range and has a 0.4 nM detection limit. It allows AFB1 to be determined in complex samples such as diluted red wine and beer. The assay is sensitive, and the chip is easily regenerated and stable. The method therefore overcomes certain limitations of antibody-based SPR assays and of competitive SPR assays for AFB1. 相似文献

A conducting polymer composite was prepared from nano-sized hydroxyaptite (nHAp) doped into poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) and then electrodeposited on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The nHAp carries carboxy groups and therefore is negatively charged at moderate pH value. When doped into PEDOT (PEDOT-nHAp), it forms a uniform and stable film that exhibits low electrochemical impedance, a large specific surface, and high activity toward the electrochemical oxidation of nitrite. Under optimized conditions and at a relatively low working potential of 0.78 V (vs. SCE), the modified GCE exhibited a linear amperometric response in the 0.25 μM to 1.05 mM nitrite concentration range, and the limit of detection is as low as 83 nM. 相似文献

This paper describes a CdTe quantum dot-based fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) based assay for the detection of the breast cancer biomarker microRNA. The method relies on energy transfer between DNA-templated silver nanoclusters (AgNCs) and CdTe QDs. Interaction between double strand oligonucleotide and QDs can be detected qualitatively through gel analysis and quantitatively by the signal amplification from AgNCs to QDs via FRET, best measured at an excitation wavelength of 350 nm and at emission wavelengths of 550 and 590 nm. Three microRNAs (microRNA-21, microRNA-155 and Let-7a) were quantified to verify the feasibility of the method, and a high sensitivity for microRNAs was achieved. Fluorescence intensity increases linearly with the log of the concentration of microRNA 155 in the 5.0 pM to 50 nM range, with a 1.2 pM detection limit. 相似文献

The authors report on a robust method for the synthesis of gold nanorods (AuNRs) with tunable dimensions and longitudinal surface plasmon resonance. The method relies on seed-mediated particle growth in the presence of benzalkonium chloride (BAC) in place of the widely used surfactant cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB). Uniform AuNRs were obtained by particle growth in solution, and BAC is found to stabilize the AuNRs for >1 year. The SERS activity of the resulting AuNRs is essentially identical to that of CTAB-protected nanorods. The SERS activity of the BAC protected nanorods was applied to the quantitative analysis of potato virus X (PVX). The calibration plot for PVX is linear in the 10 to 750 ng?mL?1 concentration range, and the detection limit is 2.2 ng?mL?1. 相似文献

The authors describe an electrochemical method for the determination of the blood clotting factor IX (FIX). A nanogapped dielectrode (with a < 100 nm junction) was modified with antibody against FIX, and the resulting system was characterized by both impedance spectroscopy and voltammetry. In order to attain the improved sensitivity, gold nanoparticles were electrostatically attached to FIX. The current to voltage (I-V) measurement was carried out from 1 V to 5 V, where the entire calibration plot with 5 V was taken. This results in a limit of detection as low of 1 pM, which is much lower compared to the real concentration of FIX (87 nM) in human blood serum. The analytical range extends from 1 pM to 0.1 μM. The electrode is highly specific over other serum proteins. 相似文献

The paper reports on a method for the detection of nanocellulose (NC) in consumer products by making use of a combination of (a) liquid-liquid extraction with an ionic liquid, and (b) size characterization by asymmetric flow field-flow fractionation (AF4) coupled to multi-angle light scattering (MALS) and refractive index (RI) detection. Both AF4 and MALS are viable tools for characterizing the size of the nanofibers. Sample preparation is easy, and the extraction efficiency of the method is 80.9 ± 1.8% (n = 5). It was applied to the detection of NC in toothpaste and coconut foodstuff to verify the practicability of the method. 相似文献

The authors describe an electrochemical immunoassay for the core antigen of hepatitis C virus (HCV). The method is based on the use of a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) that was modified with a Nafion@TiO2 nanocomposite and loaded with secondary antibody (Ab2) to entrap Celestine Blue (CB). The material has architecture of the type CB/Ab2/Nafion@TiO2. A nanocomposite consisting of graphene, ionic liquid and fullerene was deposited on the SPCE first, and rhodium nanoparticles (RhNPs) were then deposited on the surface of modified electrode in order to immobilize primary antibody (Ab1). The antigen and CB/Ab2/Nafion@TiO2 were conjugated one by one to form a sandwich-type immunocomplex. The signal was obtained by differential pulse voltammetry whose intensity is related to the concentration of the antigen. The assay, if operated at a working voltage of typically 0.35 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) has a response that is linear in the 0.1 to 250 pg?mL?1 HCV core antigen concentration range, and the limit of detection is as low as 25 fg?mL?1. The assay was applied to the determination of the HCV core antigen in spiked human serum samples. In our perception, the method represents a promising platform for the detection of various antigens if appropriate antibodies are available. 相似文献

The authors describe magnetic nanoparticles consisting of an Fe3O4 core and a poly(methacrylic acid) coating for dispersive solid phase extraction (DSPE) of arsenic prior to its determination by hydride-generation microwave plasma AES (HG-MP-AES). The particles have an average size of 25 nm, can be prepared at low costs, and provide improved operational safety in combination with plasma generation. The methods allows arsenic to be determined with detection limits (at 3σ/m) of 3.0 ng?L?1 for As(III) and of 10.0 ng?L?1 of As(V). Recoveries of (spiked) samples range from 99.0 to 102%. This is the first report on the use of HG-MP-AES for speciation and preconcentration of arsenic using DSPE. The method displays detection limits that come close to those of ICP-OES and ICP-MS. 相似文献

The authors have prepared amino-functionalized carbon dots (AC-dots) and applied them to fluorescently label a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) prepared by using 2,4-dinitrotoluene (DNT) as a template. Since DNT can retard vinyl polymerization, poly(methyl acrylate-co-acrylic acid) was used as a monomer. Non-imprinted polymers (NIPs) were also synthesized in order to compare data. As expected, MIPs exhibit higher adsorption than NIPs, with imprinting efficiencies ranging from 2 to 2.5. DNT is specifically captured by the cavities in the MIP and interact with AC-dots on the surface, resulting in quenching of the fluorescence of the AC-dots. Response to DNT reaches equilibrium within ~30 min. The method has a dynamic range that extends from 1 to 15 ppm, and allows for quantitation of DNT in aqueous solutions, with a detection limit of 0.28 ppm. Selectivity tests conducted in presence of DNT analogs demonstrated the selective recognition of DNT. 相似文献

Iridium nanoparticles (IrNPs) with intrinsic oxidase-like activity were synthesized by using sodium citrate as the stabilizer and NaBH4 as the reducing agent. The IrNPs have an average diameter of 2.5 ± 0.5 nm and exhibit excellent oxidase-like property. Under the catalytic action of the IrNPs, 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) is oxidized by dissolved oxygen (DO) to form a blue product with an absorption maximum at 652 nm. The catalytic activity is ascribed to the production of superoxide anion radical (O2ˉ?). The chromogenic reaction is exploited for the determination of DO. The method exhibits a wide calibration range from 12.5 to 257.5 μM of DO and a limit of detection as low as 4.7 μM. Compared to other methods, this method presented here shows improved precision and faster response time. 相似文献

A photoelectrochemical wire microelectrode was constructed based on the use of a TiO2 nanotube array with electrochemically deposited CdSe semiconductor. A strongly amplified photocurrent is generated on the sensor surface. The microsensor has a response in the 0.05–20 μM dopamine (DA) concentration range and a 16.7 μM detection limit at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3. Sensitivity, recovery and reproducibility of the sensor were validated by detecting DA in spiked human urine, and satisfactory results were obtained. 相似文献

A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) coated on monolayer graphene (AuNP/MG) by direct in situ sputtering of AuNPs on CVD-generated graphene. This process avoids complicated polymer transfer and polymer cleaning processes and affords AuNPs with a clean surface. The monolayer graphene is ductile and well dispersed. The clean surface of the AuNPs renders this sensor superior to GCEs modified with AuNPs on reduced graphene oxide in terms of the amperometric non-enzymatic determination of hydrogen peroxide. The detection limit is 10 nM (S/N = 3) at 0.55 V (vs. SCE), which is lower than that for similar methods, and the response time is as short as 2 s. Another attractive feature of the sensor is its feasibility for large-scale production via CVD and sputtering. 相似文献
