A carbon paste electrode containing ruthenium(IV) oxide as a modifier was tested as an effective hydrogen peroxide amperometric sensor in bulk measurements (hydrodynamic amperometry). Factors that influence its overall analytical perform ance, such as pH and the applied potential, were examined. The RuO2-modified electrode displayed high sensitivity towards hydrogen peroxide, with detection limits as low as 0.02 mm at pH 7.4 and 0.007 mM at pH 9.0. The method was applied for monitoring the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide (by catalase) in phosphate buffer of pH 7.4. The relative response of the electrode towards ascorbic acid was assessed and it was found that the selectivity of the RuO2-modified electrode towards hydrogen peroxide over ascorbic acid could be significantly improved by electro-polymerizing m-phenylenediamine on its surface prior to measurements. The RuO2-modified electrode was used for the kinetic (fixed time) determination of catalase activity in the range of 4-40 U/mL (detection limit 1.2 U/mL). The method was applied to the determination of catalase-like activity in various plant materials (recov-ery ranged from 93 to 101%, detection limit 480 U/100 g). 相似文献

Electrocatalytic sensing of NADH using a hybrid thin film derived from multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CNTs), Nafion (Nf) polymer and electrogenerated redox mediator is described. The redox mediator was electrochemically generated by the oxidation of serotonin on the hybrid thin film modified glassy carbon electrode (GC/Nf-CNT). Controlled potential electrolysis of serotonin at 0.1 V in neutral solution results in the generation of the redox mediator 5,5'-dihydroxy-4,4'-bitryptamine (DHB) on the hybrid thin film. The electrogenerated DHB has redox active quinone-imine structure and was electrochemically characterized by studying the pH dependent redox response. DHB on the hybrid thin film exhibits reversible redox peak at -0.05 V and the formal potential shifts by -55 mV while increasing the solution pH by 1 unit. The quinone-imine structure of DHB efficiently catalyzes the oxidation of NADH with a decrease in the overpotential of about 500 mV compared to the unmodified electrode. The CNTs of the hybrid thin film facilitates the mediated electrocatalytic oxidation of NADH. The hybrid thin film modified electrode exhibits stable amperometric response and it linearly responds to NADH (0.5-400 microM). This hybrid thin film modified electrode could detect NADH as low as 0.1 microM at -0.05 V with a sensitivity of 11.1 nA/microM in physiological pH. 相似文献

The electrochemistry of L-cysteine (CySH) in neutral aqueous media was investigated using carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE). Comparative experiments were carried out using glassy carbon electrodes. At CILE, highly reproducible and well-defined cyclic voltammograms were obtained for l-cysteine with a peak potential of 0.49V vs Ag/AgCl, showing that CILE manifests a good electrocatalytic activity toward oxidation of l-cysteine. A linear dynamic range of 2-210microM with an experimental detection limit of 2microM was obtained. The method was successfully applied to the determination of l-cysteine in a sample of soya milk. Cysteine oxidation at CILE does not result in deactivation of the electrode surface. Mechanistic studies showed that, at CILE, the overall CySH oxidation is controlled by the oxidation of the CyS(-) electroactive species. 相似文献

A simple, selective and sensitive method for the detection of NADH and ethanol is presented. Self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) of mercaptopyrimidine (MPM) and their derivatives, thiocytosine (TC) and 4,6-diamino-2-mercaptopyrimidine (DMP) on gold (Au) electrode are used for the voltammetric detection of NADH and ethanol in neutral aqueous solution. A decrease of 200-300 mV in the overpotential associated with an observable increase in the peak current was obtained for the oxidation of NADH on MPM and TC monolayer-modified electrodes without any redox mediator. The facilitated electron transfer for the oxidation of NADH at the TC monolayer is ascribed to the existence of stable cationic p-quinonoid form of TC. The electrode modified with DMP monolayer could not exhibit stable response for NADH owing to the fouling of electrode surface. The MPM and TC monolayer-modified electrodes show high selectivity and excellent sensitivity (MPM: 0.633+/-0.005 microA cm(-2) microM(-1); TC: 0.658+/-0.008 microA cm(-2) microM(-1)) towards NADH with detection limit (3sigma) of 2.5 and 0.5 microM, respectively. Presence of large excess of ascorbate (AA) does not interfere the detection of NADH and the monolayer-modified electrode shows individual voltammetric peaks for AA and NADH. Voltammetric sensing of ethanol using alcohol dehydrogenase on MPM and TC monolayer-modified electrode is successfully demonstrated and these electrode can detect as low as 0.5 mM ethanol in neutral pH. The sensitivity of the MPM and TC monolayer-modified electrodes toward ethanol was found to be 3.24+/-0.03 and 3.435+/-0.04 microA cm(-2) mM(-1), respectively. 相似文献

The purpose of this investigation was to study the mechanism of stimulation of PGE2 output from human amnion epithelial cells by the synthetic glucocorticoid dexamethasone. Cells incubated in serum-free pseudo-amniotic fluid produced very low levels of PGE2, even when arachidonic acid (1 microM) was present. Pretreatment of cells with dexamethasone (50 nM) for 21 h increased the PGE2 output 6- to 7-fold in 2-h incubations only in the presence of arachidonic acid. The RNA synthesis inhibitor, actinomycin D (1 microgram/ml), and the protein synthesis inhibitor, cycloheximide (40 micrograms/ml), each blocked dexamethasone-stimulated arachidonic acid conversion to PGE2. The time course of these events suggests that dexamethasone first initiates RNA synthesis. Acetylsalicylic acid, a specific and irreversible blocker of prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase (cyclooxygenase), was used to determine whether dexamethasone could stimulate new enzyme synthesis. Cells treated first with acetylsalicylic acid (30 min) then dexamethasone (22 h) produced as much PGE2 in response to 1 microM arachidonate as did cells exposed to dexamethasone only. Exposing cells to acetylsalicylic acid after dexamethasone completely eliminated PGE2 output. These data suggest that dexamethasone stimulates the synthesis of prostaglandin endoperoxide H synthase. 相似文献

Palladium nanoparticle-loaded carbon nanofibers (Pd/CNFs) were prepared by electrospinning and subsequent thermal treatment processes. Pd/CNFs modified carbon paste electrode (Pd/CNF-CPE) displayed excellent electrochemical catalytic activities towards dopamine (DA), uric acid (UA) and ascorbic acid (AA). The oxidation overpotentials of DA, UA and AA were decreased significantly compared with those obtained at the bare CPE. Differential pulse voltammetry was used for the simultaneous determination of DA, UA and AA in their ternary mixture. The peak separation between UA and DA, DA and AA was 148 mV and 244 mV, respectively. The calibration curves for DA, UA and AA were obtained in the range of 0.5-160 microM, 2-200 microM, and 0.05-4mM, respectively. The lowest detection limits (S/N=3) were 0.2 microM, 0.7 microM and 15 microM for DA, UA and AA, respectively. With good selectively and sensitivity, the present method was applied to the determination of DA in injectable medicine and UA in urine sample. 相似文献

An electrochemical method has been successfully demonstrated for sensitive determination of homocysteine (HcySH) with carbon nanotube (CNT)-modified glassy carbon (GC) electrodes. Cyclic voltammetric results clearly show that carbon nanotubes, especially those pretreated with nitric acid, possess an excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of HcySH at a low potential (0.0 V versus Ag/AgCl). The remarkable catalytic property of the acid-pretreated CNTs, which is essentially associated with oxygen-containing moieties introduced on the tube surface, has been further exploited as a sensitive determination scheme for HcySH. Continuous-flow amperometric results suggest that the CNT-based electrodes (p-CNT/Nafion/GC), which were prepared by using Nafion to solubilize and further immobilize CNTs on GC electrodes, show striking analytical properties of good stability and reproducibility and strong ability against electrode fouling. Such analytical properties, along with the low operation potential, substantially enable a reliable and sensitive determination of HcySH with a good dynamic linearity up to 60 microM and a detection limit of 0.06 microM (S/N = 3). The catalytic mechanism and the possible application of the as-prepared p-CNT/Nafion/GC electrodes for the study of the auto-oxidation of HcySH are also demonstrated and discussed. 相似文献

In this work, poly(aniline-co-o-aminophenol) (copolymer) was used as an electron transfer mediator in the electrochemical oxidation of catechol due to its reversible redox over a wide range of pH. The experimental results indicate that the anodic peak potential of catechol at the copolymer electrode is lower than that at the platinum electrode in a solution consisting of catechol and sodium sulfate with pH 5.0, and the activation energy for the electrochemical oxidation of catechol at the copolymer electrode is low (23.6 kJ mol(-1)). These are strong evidence for the electrocatalytic oxidation of catechol at the copolymer electrode. The -OH group on the copolymer chain plays an important role in the electron transfer between the copolymer electrode and catechol in the solution. Based on the catalytic oxidation, the copolymer is used as a sensor to determine the concentration of catechol. The response current of the sensor depends on the concentration of catechol, pH, applied potential and temperature. At 0.55 V (versus saturated calomel reference electrode (SCE)) and pH 5.0, the sensor has a fast response (about 10s) to catechol and good operational stability. The sensor shows a linear response range between 5 and 80 microM catechol with a correlation coefficient of 0.997. It was found that phenol and resorcinol cannot be oxidized at the copolymer electrode at potentials < or =0.55 V, so controlling the sensor potential affords a good way of avoiding the effect of phenol and resorcinol on the determination of catechol. 相似文献

The direct electrochemistry of hemoglobin (Hb) immobilized on a hexagonal mesoporous silica (HMS)-modified glassy carbon electrode was described. The interaction between Hb and the HMS was investigated using UV-Vis spectroscopy, FT-IR, and electrochemical methods. The direct electron transfer of the immobilized Hb exhibited two couples of redox peaks with the formal potentials of -0.037 and -0.232 V in 0.1 M (pH 7.0) PBS, respectively, which corresponded to its two immobilized states. The electrode reactions showed a surface-controlled process with a single proton transfer at the scan rate range from 20 to 200 mV/s. The immobilized Hb retained its biological activity well and displayed an excellent response to the reduction of both hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and nitrate (NO2-). Its apparent Michaelis-Menten constants for H2O2 and NO2- were 12.3 and 49.3 microM, respectively, showing a good affinity. Based on the immobilization of Hb on the HMS and its direct electrochemistry, two novel biosensors for H2O2 and NO2- were presented. Under optimal conditions, the sensors could be used for the determination of H2O2 ranging from 0.4 to 6.0 microM and NO2- ranging from 0.2 to 3.8 microM. The detection limits were 1.86 x 10(-9) M and 6.11 x 10(-7) M at 3sigma, respectively. HMS provided a good matrix for protein immobilization and biosensor preparation. 相似文献

Edge plane pyrolytic graphite electrode (EPPGE) modified with single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) has been used as a sensor to determine triamcinolone, abused by athletes for doping. A comparison of the voltammetric behavior between SWNTs modified EPPGE and fullerene – C60-modified EPPGE indicated that SWNTs modified EPPGE is more sensitive. The electrode exhibited an effective catalytic response with good reproducibility and stability. The effect of several parameters such as pH, square wave frequency and steroid concentration were studied. The square wave voltammetric response of the electrode to triamcinolone is linear in the range 0.1–25 nM with a detection limit and sensitivity of 8.9 × 10−10 M and 2.06 μA nM−1, respectively. The method was applied for the determination of triamcinolone in several commercially available pharmaceuticals and real urine samples obtained from patients undergoing pharmacological treatment with triamcinolone. A comparison of the observed results with HPLC analysis indicated a good agreement. The product obtained after reduction of triamcinolone was also characterized using 1H NMR and GC–MS and the site of reduction is found to be carbonyl group at position 20. The method described is rapid, simple and accurate and can be easily applied for detecting cases of doping. 相似文献

This paper describes a rapid and simple technique for the simultaneous quantitative analysis of PGE(2), PGE(3), and other closely related prostaglandins from cultured cells using liquid chromatography/electrospray ionization tandem mass spectrometry. This method permits quantification of selected individual prostaglandins derived either from arachidonic acid (AA) or eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) from cell extracts without tedious derivatization, lengthy sample preparation, and separation required by GC-MS- or HPLC-UV-based methods. The validation assessment showed that the quantitative determination is linear (r(2)>0.999) for both PGE(2) and PGE(3) in the range tested (1-500 ng/ml, 0.0028-1.4 microM) and a coefficient of variation lower than 10% was obtained for samples analyzed on 3 separate days. The detection limit was 2.5 pg for both PGE(2) and PGE(3). Extraction efficiency of PGE(2) and PGE(3) from cell suspensions ranged from 89.4 to 98.2%. As an application of the method, prostaglandins formed by EPA in human lung cancer A549 cells were determined. A 62% reduction of PGE(2) formation was noted when A549 cells were treated with 10 microM of EPA. Concomitantly, EPA increased formation of PGE(3) by 10-fold in A549 cells. This is the first report that unequivocally demonstrates that EPA can be converted to PGE(3) by cyclooxygenase in human cancer cells. 相似文献

8-Hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) has attracted enormous attention in recent years because it has been acknowledged as a typical biomarker of oxidative DNA damage. In this paper, the electrochemical performance of 8-OH-dG at the poly(3-methylthiophene) (P3MT) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). The conducting polymer P3MT can effectively decrease the oxidation peak potential of 8-OH-dG and greatly enhance its peak current. In 0.1 M pH 7.0 phosphate buffer solution (PBS), the anodic peak currents of cyclic voltammograms are linear with the 8-OH-dG concentration in two intervals, viz. 0.700-35.0 microM and 35.0-70.0 microM, with the correlative coefficients of 0.9992 and 0.9995, respectively. The detection limit of 8-OH-dG can be estimated to be 0.100 microM (S/N=3). This modified electrode can be used to detect the amount of 8-OH-dG in human urine. Furthermore, the effects of scan rate, pH, and interference of uric acid (UA) for the voltammetric behavior and detection of 8-OH-dG are also discussed. This proposed modified electrode also shows excellent reproducibility and stability that makes it an ideal candidate for amperometric detection of 8-OH-dG in flow injection analysis (FIA) and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). 相似文献

A novel label-free electrochemical DNA biosensor based on 4,4'-diaminoazobenzene (4,4'-DAAB) and multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT)-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for short DNA sequences related to the hepatitis B virus (HBV) hybridization detection was presented. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was used to investigate hybridization event. The decrease in the peak current of 4,4'-DAAB was observed on hybridization of probe with the target. This electrochemical approach was sequence specific as indicated by the control experiments, in which no peak current change was observed when a noncomplementary DNA sequence was used. Numerous factors affecting the target hybridization were optimized to maximize the sensitivity. Under optimal conditions, this sensor showed a good calibration range between 7.94 x 10(-8) M and 1.58 x 10(-6) M, with HBV DNA sequence detection limit of 1.1 x 10(-8) M. 相似文献

The direct electrochemistry of myoglobin (Mb) immobilized on a hexagonal mesoporous silica (HMS)-modified glassy carbon electrode was described. The interaction between Mb and HMS was investigated by using Fourier transfer infrared spectroscopy, nitrogen adsorption isotherm, and cyclic voltammetry. Two couples of redox peaks corresponding to Fe(III) to Fe(II) conversion of the Mb intercalated in the mesopores and adsorbed on the surface of the HMS were observed with the formal potentials of -0.167 and -0.029V in 0.1M, pH 7.0, phosphate buffer solution, respectively. The electrode reaction showed a surface-controlled process with one proton transfer. The immobilized Mb displayed good electrocatalytic responses to the reduction of both hydrogen peroxide (H(2)O(2)) and nitrite (NO(2)(-)), which were used to develop novel sensors for H(2)O(2) and NO(2)(-). The apparent Michaelis-Menten constants of the immobilized Mb for H(2)O(2) and NO(2)(-) were 0.065 and 0.72mM, respectively, showing good affinity. Under optimal conditions, the sensors could be used for the determinations of H(2)O(2) ranging from 4.0 to 124microM and NO(2)(-) ranging from 8.0 to 216microM. The detection limits were 6.2x10(-8) and 8.0x10(-7)M at 3 sigma, respectively. The HMS provided a novel matrix for protein immobilization and the construction of biosensors via the direct electron transfer of immobilized protein. 相似文献

The three-dimensionally ordered macroporous gold-nanoparticle-doped titanium dioxide (3DOM GTD) film was modified on the indium-tin oxide (ITO) electrode surface. Hemoglobin (Hb) has been successfully immobilized on the 3DOM GTD film and the fabrication process was characterized by Raman and UV-vis spectra. The results indicated that the Hb immobilized on the film retained its biological activity and the secondary structure of Hb was not destroyed. The direct electrochemistry and electrocatalysis of Hb immobilized on this film have been investigated. The Hb/3DOM GTD/ITO electrode exhibited two couples of redox peaks corresponding to the Hb intercalated in the mesopores and adsorbed on the external surface of the film with the formal potential of -0.20 and -0.48 V in 0.1M PBS (pH7.0), respectively. The Hb/3DOM GTD/ITO electrode exhibits an excellent eletrocatalytic activity, a wide linear range for H(2)O(2) from 5.0 μM to 1.0mM with a limit of detection of 0.6μM, high sensitivity (144.5 μA mM(-1)), good stability and reproducibility. Compared with the TiO(2) nanoneedles modified electrode, the GTD modified electrode has higher sensitivity and response peak current. The 3DOM GTD provided a good matrix for bioactive molecules immobilization, suggesting it has the potential use in the fields of H(2)O(2) biosensors. 相似文献

The polyaniline (PANi)-Nafion composite film was prepared onto the ceramic plate by the cyclic voltammetry (CV) method with the various cycle numbers. When the PANi-Nafion/Au/ceramic plate with the preparing cycle number of 5 was as working electrode, the cathodic peak current was achieved as 84.0 microA in 60 mg dl(-1) NH4Cl buffer solution. On the other hand, the small cathodic peak currents for buffer solution in the presence of 60 mg dl(-1) LiOH, NaCl and KCl, respectively, were found with the same composite electrode as working electrode. The cathodic peak current decreased from 84.0 to 16.3 microA in the 60 mg dl(-1) NH4Cl buffer solution when the cycle number for preparing PANi-Nafion/Au/ceramic plate composite electrode with the CV method increased from 5 to 15. The enzyme of urease was immobilized onto the PANi-Nafion/Au/ceramic plate composite film by the electrochemical immobilization and the casting methods and used as sensing electrode to detect the concentration of urea in the buffer solution. The sensitivity of composite electrode immobilized with the casting method was greater than that of electrochemical immobilization method. The sensitivity and the detecting limit of the urea sensor were found to be 0.7 and 5.27 microA (mg dl(-1))(-1)cm(-2), as well as 6 and 0.3 mg dl(-1), respectively, when urease was immobilized by glutaraldehyde (GA) cross-linker and Nafion network, respectively. 相似文献

For the first time glucose oxidase (GOx) was successfully co-deposited on nickel-oxide (NiO) nanoparticles at a glassy carbon electrode. In this paper we present a simple fabrication method of biosensor which can be easily operated without using any specific reagents. Cyclic voltammetry was used for electrodeposition of NiO nanoparticle and GOx immobilization. The direct electron transfer of immobilized GOx displays a pair of well defined and nearly reversible redox peaks with a formal potential (E(0')) of -0.420 V in pH 7 phosphate buffer solution and the response shows a surface controlled electrode process. The surface coverage and heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k(s)) of GOx immobilized on NiO film glassy carbon electrode are 9.45 x 10(-13)mol cm(-2) and 25.2+/-0.5s(-1), indicating the high enzyme loading ability of the NiO nanoparticles and great facilitation of the electron transfer between GOx and NiO nanoparticles. The biosensor shows excellent electrocatalytical response to the oxidation of glucose when ferrocenmethanol was used as an artificial redox mediator. Furthermore, the apparent Michaelis-Menten constant 2.7 mM, of GOx on the nickel oxide nanoparticles exhibits excellent bioelectrocatalytic activity of immobilized enzyme toward glucose oxidation. In addition, this glucose biosensor shows fast amperometric response (3s) with the sensitivity of 446.2nA/mM, detection limit of 24 microM and wide concentration range of 30 microM to 5mM. This biosensor also exhibits good stability, reproducibility and long life time. 相似文献

The interaction of sildenafil citrate (Viagra) with DNA was studied by using an electrochemical DNA biosensor. The binding mechanism of sildenafil citrate was elucidated by using constant current potentiometry and differential pulse voltammetry at DNA-modified glassy carbon electrode. The decrease in the guanine oxidation peak area or peak current was used as an indicator for the interaction in 0.2M acetate buffer (pH 5). The binding constant (K) values obtained were 2.01+/-0.05 x 10(5) and 1.97+/-0.01 x 10(5)M(-1) with constant current potentiometry and differential pulse voltammetry, respectively. A linear dependence of the guanine peak area or peak current was observed within the range of 1-40 microM sildenafil citrate with slope=-2.74 x 10(-4)s/microM, r=0.989 and slope=-2.78 x 10(-3)microA/microM, r=0.995 by using constant current potentiometry and differential pulse voltammetry, respectively. Additionally, binding constant values for sildenafil citrate-DNA interaction were determined for the pH range of 4-8 and in biological fluids (serum and urine) at pH 5. The influence of sodium and calcium ions was also studied to elucidate the mechanism of sildenafil citrate-DNA interaction under different solution conditions. The present study may prove to be helpful in extending our understanding of the anticancer activity of sildenafil citrate from cellular to DNA level. 相似文献

Inorganic layered niobates (HCa2Nb3O10) were used as immobilization matrices of hemoglobin (Hb) because of their tunable interlayer spaces, large surface areas and good biocompatibilities. A pair of well-defined, quasi-reversible cycle voltammertric peaks were obtained at the Hb-HCa2Nb3O10 modified pyrolytic graphite electrode, suggesting that the layered niobates facilitate the electron transfer between the proteins and the electrode. Hb-HCa2Nb3O10 modified electrode exhibited electrocatalytic response for monitoring H2O2 with a large linear detection range from 25 microM to 3.0 mM and a relatively high sensitivity of 172 microA mM-1 cm-2. Based on the stabilizing effect of the layered niobates, Hb-HCa2Nb3O10 modified electrode can detect H2O2 in strongly acidic and basic solutions with pH of 1-12, which greatly expands the application fields of biosensors. 相似文献

A renewable three-dimensional chemically modified carbon ceramic electrode (CCE) containing nickel powder and K4[Mo(CN)8] was constructed by sol-gel technique. The electrochemical properties and stability of modified electrode was evaluated by cyclic voltammetry in pH range 4-10. The redox couple of [Mo(CN)8] (4-/3-) was shown both as a solute in electrolyte solution and as a component of a carbon based conducting composite electrode. The apparent electron transfer rate constant (ks) and transfer coefficient (alpha) were determined by cyclic voltammetry and they were about 17.1 and 0.57 s(-1), respectively. The catalytic activity of the modified CCE toward insulin oxidation was investigated at pH range of 3-8 by cyclic votammetry. The modified electrode showed excellent electrocatalytic activity toward insulin electroxidation at physiological pH value. The modified electrode was used for insulin detection chronoamperometrically at pH 7. Under optimized condition in amperometry method, the concentration calibration range, detection limit and sensitivity were 0.5-500 nM, 0.45 nM and 6140 nA/microM, respectively. Flow injection amperometric determination of insulin at pH 7.4, at this modified electrode yielded a calibration curve with the following characteristics, linear dynamic range 100-500 pM; sensitivity 8.1 nA/nM and detection limit 40 pM (based on S/N = 3). The inherent stability at wide pH range, high sensitivity, low detection limit, low cost and ease of preparation are of advantageous of this insulin sensor. This sensor indicates great promise for monitory insulin in chromatographic effluents. 相似文献
