An electrochemical sensor was developed for determination of hydrogen peroxide (HP) based on a carbon ceramic electrode modified with iron pentacyanonitrosylferrate (FePCNF). The surface of an iron-doped CCE was derivatized in a solution of PCNF by cycling the electrode potential between ?0.2 and +1.3 V for about 60 times. The morphology and the composition of the resulting electrode were characterized by scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared techniques. The electrode displayed excellent response to the electro-oxidation of HP which is linearly related to its concentration in the range from 0.5 μM to 1300 μM. The detection limit is 0.4 μM, and the sensitivity is 849 A M ?1?cm ?2. The modified electrode was used to determination of HP in hair coloring creams as real samples. 相似文献
Simultaneous determination of dihydroxybenzene isomers in neutral condition was successfully realized by a simple and easy prepared modified electrode without previous chemical or physical separations. The multi-walled carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode (MWCNTs/GCE), which was prepared by the drop-coating method, was characterized by FE-SEM and TEM. Then, the electrochemical behavior of dihydroxybenzene isomers at MWCNTs/GCE was systematically studied at different temperature and pH conditions. The oxidation peak potentials were separated in neutral condition with 105 mV to hydroquinone (HQ) and catechol (CC) and 390 mV to CC and resorcinol (RS). And in neutral condition, the amperometric current were found to be linear with concentration of HQ, CC, and RS (20–140 μM) with the presence of 100 μM other isomers. Furthermore, excellent anti-interference, stability, and reproducibility were also presented by this modified electrode. 相似文献
A thin film of poly(eriochrome black T) was deposited on the surface of glassy carbon electrode by cyclic voltammetry, and this system is shown to enable the sensitive determination of adenine (A) and guanine (G). Scanning electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were carried out to characterize the film which exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of A and G in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 4.0). Square wave voltammetry reveals an oxidation peak at 1084 mV whose current is linearly related to the concentration of A in the range from 0.05 to 1.00 μM. The oxidation peak for G occurs at 788 mV, and its current is linearly related to the concentration of G in the range from 0.025 to 1.00 μM. The detection limits are 0.017 μM for A and 0.008 μM for G (at S/N?=?3), respectively. The modified electrode displays good reproducibility and selectivity for the determination of A and G. The sensor was applied to quantify A and G in fish sperm DNA with satisfactory results.

We have synthesized a cobalt(II) coordination polymer and have characterized it by various methods including X-ray single crystal structural analysis. The polymer was used as modifier to fabricate a carbon paste electrode that displays electrochemical activity towards tryptophan (Trp). Trp is oxidized at the surface of the electrode in buffer solution of pH 4.2, yielding a single peak at 814 mV. The experimental conditions such as the concentration, the composition and the pH values of the supporting electrolyte, accumulation time, and the scan rate were optimized. Under the optimized conditions, the current of peak is linearly related to the concentration of Trp in the range from 0.2 to 8.0 μM, and from 8.0 to 80.0 μM. The detection limit (at S/N?=?3) is 0.1 μM at an accumulation time of 60 s. The determination of Trp in amino acid injection solutions was evaluated and the results were satisfactory. The recoveries were in the range of 97.5% to 103.0%.
Figure
As shown in Fig. 1, a well-defined and very sharp oxidation peak at 814 mV was obtained in the curve the curve b. Whereas, a relatively weak anodic peak at 835 mV can be observed under the same conditions with an bare electrode. By comparing curve b and c, it can be seen that, the peak current was about 0.720 μA with the bare CPE. However, the peak current was increased to 10.39 μA with the modified CPE. This significant improvement of peak current may be related to the effective catalytic fashion of the cobalt (II) coordination polymer film modified on the surface of the CPE in the electrochemical oxidation of Trp. 相似文献
We report on a sensitive electrochemical sensor for dopamine (DA) based on a glassy carbon electrode that was modified with a nanocomposite containing electrochemically reduced graphene oxide (RGO) and palladium nanoparticles (Pd-NPs). The composite was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive spectroscopy, and electrochemical impendence spectroscopy. The electrode can oxidize DA at lower potential (234 mV vs Ag/AgCl) than electrodes modified with RGO or Pd-NPs only. The response of the sensor to DA is linear in the 1–150 μM concentration range, and the detection limit is 0.233 μM. The sensor was applied to the determination of DA in commercial DA injection solutions.

A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with poly(L-arginine) (P-Arg), reduced graphene oxide (rGO) and gold nanoparticle (AuNP) to obtain an electrode for simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA), serotonin (5-HT) and L-tryptophan (L-Trp) in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA). The modified GCE was prepared via subsequent ‘layer-by-layer’ deposition using an electrochemical technique. The surface morphology of the modified electrode was studied by scanning electron microscopy, and electrochemical characterizations were carried out via cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The modified electrode showed excellent electrocatalytic activity toward DA, 5-HT and L-Trp at pH 7.0. Figures of merit for the differential pulse voltammetric reponse are as follows: (a) Response to DA is linear in two intervals, viz. 1.0–50 nM and 1.0–50 μM DA concentration range, the typical working voltage is 202 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl), and the detection limit is 1 nM (at an S/N ratio of 3). For 5-HT, the respective data are 10 to 500 nM and 1.0 to 10 μM, 381 mV, and 30 nM. For L-Trp, the respective data are 10–70 nM and 10–100 μM, 719 mV, and 0.1 μM. The modified GCE is fairly selective. It was successfully applied to the simultaneous determination of DA, 5-HT, and L-Trp in spiked urine samples, and high recovery rates were found.

A sensitive amperometric sensor has been constructed for the determination of hydrogen peroxide (HP). It is based on a glassy carbon electrode modified with a composite made from thionin, EDTA, multiwalled carbon nanotubes, and chitosan. Thionin was covalently immobilized on the surface of the electrode. The sensor exhibits a powerful electrocatalytic activity for the reduction of HP. The amperometric signal is proportional to the concentration of HP in the range from 0.2 μM to 85.0 μM, with a detection limit of 0.065 μM. The sensor displays excellent selectivity, good reproducibility and long-term stability. 相似文献
The electrochemical oxidation of β-nicotinamine adenine dinucleotide (NADH) was investigated at a glassy carbon electrode modified with carbon mesoporous materials (CMM). Due to the large surface area and electro-catalytic properties of CMM, the overpotential of the electrodes toward the oxidation of NADH is decreased by 595 mV in aqueous solution at neutral pH. The anodic peak currents increase steadily with the concentration of NADH in the range from 2 µM to 1.1 mM, the detection limit being 1.0 µM at pH 7.2 and a potential of +0.3 V vs. SCE. The apparent Michaelis-Menten constant is ~21.5 μM. The results enable NADH to be sensed at a low potential and are promising with respect to the design of dehydrogenase-based amperometric biosensors. 相似文献
A simple and sensitive electrochemical method is described for the determination of the cholesterol-reducing drug ezetimibe in aqueous solution. A glassy carbon electrode, modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes and sodium dodecylsulphate was used as the working electrode. Ezetimibe yields a well-defined anodic peak at the surface of the electrode in an aqueous solution of pH 13. A linear amperometric calibration curve was obtained in the range of 1.2–78 μM (0.5–32.0 μg/mL) of ezetimibe, with a sensitivity of 88.6 nA/μM and a detection limit of 300 nM (0.12 μg/mL). The sensor was applied successfully to the determination of ezetimibe in pharmaceutical preparations. 相似文献
We describe a simple and sensitive voltammetric method for the simultaneous determination of 2-nitrophenol and 4-nitrophenol. It is based on the use of an acetylene black paste electrode modified with a graphene-chitosan composite film (denoted as Gr-Chit/ABPE). The reduction peak currents of 2-nitrophenol (at ?252 mV) and of 4-nitrophenol (at ?340 mV) in pH 1.0 solution increase significantly at the Gr-Chit/ABPE in comparison to a bare ABPE. Factors affecting sensitivity were optimized and a linear relationship is found between peak current and the concentrations of 2-nitrophenol (in the 0.4 μM to 80 μM range) and for 4-nitrophenol (in the 0.1 μM to 80 μM range). The detection limits (at an SNR of 3 and after a 30-s accumulation time) are 200 nM for 2-nitrophenol and 80 nM for 4-nitrophenol, respectively. The modified electrode was successfully applied to the direct and parallel determination of 2-nitrophenol and 4-nitrophenol in spiked water samples.

A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was anodically oxidized by cyclic voltammetry (CV) in 0.05 M sulfuric acid to introduce hydroxy groups on its surface (GCEox). Next, an imidazolium alkoxysilane (ImAS) is covalently tethered to the surface of the GCEox via silane chemistry. This electrode is further modified with graphene oxide (GO) which, dispersed in water, spontaneously assembles on the electrode surface through electrostatic interaction and π-interaction to give an electrode of type GO/ImAS/GCE. Electroreduction of GO and GCEox by CV yields electroreduced GO (erGO) and an electrode of the type erGO/ImAS/GCE. This electrode displays excellent electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA). Three fully resolved anodic peaks (at ?50 mV, 150 mV and 280 mV vs. Ag/AgCl) are observed during differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Under optimized conditions, the linear detection ranges are from 30 to 2000 μM for AA, from 20 to 490 μM for UA, and from 0.1 to 5 μM and from 5 μM to 200 μM (two linear ranges) for DA. The respective limits of detection (for an S/N of 3) are 10 μM, 5 μM and 0.03 μM. The GCE modified with erGO and ImAS performs better than a bare GCE or a GCE modified with ImAS only, and also outperforms many other reported electrodes for the three analytes. The method was successfully applied to simultaneous analysis of AA, DA and UA in spiked human urine.

An electrochemical sensor was developed and tested for detection of L-tyrosine in the presence of epinephrine by surface modification of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) with Nafion and cerium dioxide nanoparticles. Fabrication parameters of a surfactant-assisted precipitation method were optimized to produce 2–3 nm CeO2 nanoparticles with very high surface-to-volume ratio. The resulting nanocrystals were characterized structurally and morphologically by X-ray diffractometery (XRD), scanning and high resolution transmission electron microscopy (SEM and HR-TEM). The nanopowder is sonochemically dispersed in a Nafion solution which is then used to modify the surface of a GCE electrode. The electrochemical activity of L-tyrosine and epinephrine was investigated using both a Nafion-CeO2 coated and a bare GCE. The modified electrode exhibits a significant electrochemical oxidation effect of L-tyrosine in a 0.2 M Britton-Robinson (B-R) buffer solution of pH 2. The electro-oxidation peak current increases linearly with the L-tyrosine concentration in the molar concentration range of 2 to 160 μM. By employing differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) for simultaneous measurements, we detected two reproducible peaks for L-tyrosine and epinephrine in the same solution with a peak separation of about 443 mV. The detection limit of the sensor (signal to noise ratio of 3) for L-tyrosine is ~90 nM and the sensitivity is 0.20 μA μM−1, while for epinephrine these values are ~60 nM and 0.19 μA μM−1. The sensor exhibited excellent selectivity, sensitivity, reproducibility and stability as well as a very good recovery time in real human blood serum samples.
Simultaneous electrochemical determination of L-tyrosine and epinephrine in blood plasma with Nafion-CeO2/GCE modified electrode showing a 443 mV peak-to-peak potential difference between species oxidation peak currents.
We report on a glassy carbon electrode that was modified with a composite made from graphene oxide (GO) and multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) that enables highly sensitive determination of L-tyrosine. The sensor was characterized by transmission electron microscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and its electrochemical properties by cyclic voltammetry, chronocoulometry and differential pulse voltammetry. The GO/MWCNT hybrid exhibits strong catalytic activity toward the oxidation of L-tyrosine, with a well defined oxidation peak at 761 mV. The respective current serves as the analytical information and is proportional to the L-tyrosine concentration in two ranges of different slope (0.05 to 1.0 μM and 1.0 to 650.0 μM), with limits of detection and quantification as low as 4.4 nM and 14.7 nM, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the analysis of L-tyrosine in human body fluids. The excellent reproducibility, stability, sensitivity and selectivity are believed to be due to the combination of the electrocatalytic properties of both GO and MWCNT. They are making this hybrid electrode a potentially useful electrochemical sensing platform for bioanalysis.

In the present study, we report the synthesis and characterization of platinum nanoparticles decorated graphene (GPtNPs) nanocomposite toward the electrochemical determination of ascorbic acid (AA), dopamine (DA), and paracetamol (PCT). GPtNPs demonstrated synergistic catalytic activity with enhanced currents in all of the measurements when compared with graphene-modified glassy carbon electrode (G-GCE) and bare GCE. The nanocomposite exhibited low overpotential for AA oxidation and good peak-to-peak separation of 218.0, 218.0, and 436.0 mV for AA–DA, DA–PCT, and AA–PCT, respectively. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and chronoamperometry (CA) determination of AA, DA, and PCT showed wide linearity ranges. CV determination of AA exhibited linearity range from 300 μM to 20.89 mM and from 22.02 to 39.87 mM. DA determination using CV exhibited linearity range from 5 to 104 μM and from 114 to 684 μM, whereas CA determination of PCT showed a linearity range from 20 μM to 6.43 mM. Differential pulse voltammetry determinations of AA, DA, and PCT exhibited low detection limits of 300, 5, and 5 μM, respectively. 相似文献
Acrylic acid was first electropolymerized on the surface of a gold electrode. Then, polyaniline (PANI) was electrodeposited on the poly(acrylic acid) (PAA) network to give a PANI–PAA composite film. Scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical studies confirmed the formation of PANI–PAA composite which exhibited excellent electroactivity over a wide pH range. The electro-oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA) was studied in detail. The modified electrode exhibits significantly reduced oxidation overpotential. The response towards AA is linear in the range 1.0 μM to 9.3 mM (R?=?0.9997, n?=?33) at a potential of 0.1 V (vs. SCE). The sensitivity is 207 μA mM-1 cm-2, and the detection limit is 1.0 μM (S/N?=?3). Interferences by uric acid and dopamine are negligible. The electrode thus enables sensitive and selective determination of AA, with a performance superior to many other PANI–based ascorbate sensors. 相似文献
Polyvinylferrocene (PVF) was used as a mediator for the fabrication of a horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-modified electrode to detect phenol derivatives via a composite polymeric matrix of conducting polypyrrole (PPy). Through an electropolymerization process, enzyme HRP was entrapped with PPy in a three-electrode system onto a glassy carbon electrode previously covered with PVF, resulting in a composite polymeric matrix. Steady-state amperometric measurements were performed at ?200 mV vs. Ag/AgCl in aqueous phosphate buffer containing NaCl 0.1 M (pH 6.8) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide. The response of the HRP-modified PVF electrode was investigated for various phenol derivatives, which were 4-chlorophenol, phenol, catechol, hydroquinone, 2-aminophenol, pyrogallol, m-cresol, and 4-methoxyphenol. Analytical parameters for the fabricated PVF electrode were obtained from the calibration curves. The highest sensitivity was obtained from the calibration of 4-chlorophenol as 29.91 nA/μM. The lowest detection limit was found to be 0.22 μM (S/N?=?3) for catechol, and the highest detection limit was found to be 0.79 μM (S/N?=?3) for 4-methoxyphenol among the tested derivatives. The biosensor can reach 95% of steady-state current in about 5 min. The electrode is stable for 2 months at 4 °C. 相似文献
A novel myoglobin-based electrochemical biosensor was developed. It is based on a nanocomposite prepared from multiwalled carbon nanotubes that were coated with ceria nanoparticles. UV-vis and electrochemical measurements displayed that the nanocomposite provides a biocompatible matrix for the immobilization of myoglobin (Mb) and also facilitates direct electron transfer between its active center and the surface of the electrode. Immobilized Mb exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the reduction of hydrogen peroxide (HP). The low apparent Michaelis-Menten constant of 63.3 μM indicates high bioactivity and enhanced affinity to HP. This study also shows that the nanocomposite is a promising support for immobilization of proteins and for the preparation of third-generation biosensors. 相似文献
The present work is based on the use of a redox mediator containing an azo group for the selective determination of dopamine in the presence of uric acid and ascorbic acid by electrochemical method. A modified electrode was prepared by electrochemical polymerization of the poly 2-napthol orange film (P2NO) on the paraffin wax-impregnated graphite electrode (PIGE) by applying potential between ?0.6 and 0.8 V at scan rate of 50 mV s?1 for 30 segments. The modified P2NO film electrode was characterized by ATR-IR spectroscopy, FE-SEM, cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), hydrodynamic voltammetry (HDV), and chronoamperometry (CA). The P2NO film modified electrode exhibited selective determination of dopamine in the presence of uric acid and ascorbic acid, and the electrocatalytic activity for oxidation of dopamine was excellent. The linear range for the determination of dopamine was 0.6 to 250 μM with a limit of detection of 0.13 μM. The modified P2NO electrode showed good stability and reproducibility. The modified electrode was used for real sample analysis such as human blood serum, rat blood serum, and pharmaceutical samples (dopamine hydrochloride injection). The results obtained were found to be satisfactory. 相似文献
Abstract Poly (acridine orange) (PAO) film–modified electrode was prepared by the electrooxidation of Acridine orange on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for the detection of hydroquinone in the presence of o‐hydroquinone and m‐hydroquinone. The electrochemical behavior of hydroquinone on the modified electrode was investigated with respect to different solution acidity, scan rate, and accumulation time. A pair of sharp and well‐defined peaks was obtained at 0.45 and 0.42 V [vs. a saturated calomel electrode (SCE)] at the PAO film–modified electrode. The potential difference between this pair of cathodic and anodic peaks was decreased to only 30 mV as compared to the 241 mV that was obtained on the bare glassy carbon electrode (GCE). As to o‐hydroquinone and m‐hydroquinone, their corresponding oxidation peaks appeared at 0.55 V and 0.89 V (vs. SCE), respectively. The oxidation potential differences between these three isomers enabled the separate detection of hydroquinone. Under the optimum experimental situation, the oxidation peak current of hydroquinone was proportional to the concentration at the range of 6.8×10?7–9.6×10?5 M. The detection limit was been estimated as 3×10?7 M with 130 s accumulation. This method was applied to the hydroquinone detection in tap water samples. 相似文献
A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was modified with silicon carbide nanoparticles and used to investigate the electrochemistry of the drug nimesulide via voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The structure of the modified electrode was studied by field emission scanning electron microscopy. Nimesulide undergoes electroreduction at pH 2 at a potential that is shifted from ?526 mV (at the bare GCE) to ?387 mV at the modified electrode. Simultaneously, sensitivity is increased by a factor of 5.8. The charge transfer coefficient, diffusion coefficient, standard heterogeneous rate constant and catalytic reaction rate constant were determined. A plot potential vs. pH revealed a voltammetric pKa value of about 6.5–7.0. The differential pulse voltammetric calibration plot for nimesulide is linear in 0.09–8.7 μM concentration range, and the detection limit and sensitivity are 30 nM and 512 nA.μM?1, respectively. The modified electrode was applied to the determination of nimesulide in acidic solution and human blood serum samples without further pretreatment. The recoveries, as determined by the standard addition method, range from 95.7 to 98.7%, with an RSD of around 1.6%.
