An implantable amperometric blood oxygen sensor was developed to improve rate adaptation of heart pacemakers. Two different working electrode materials in direct contact with the blood were tested, smooth glassy carbon and gold. Reference electrodes of Ag/AgCl and porous pyrolytic carbon were evaluated. A counter electrode being the titanium housing of the pulse generator was partly coated with carbon. An implantable pacemaker system with chronocoulometric oxygen detection was developed. Heart synchronous potential steps were periodically applied to the 7.5 mm2 working electrode in the atrium. Both single and double potential step techniques were evaluated. The oxygen diffusion limited current was used to calculate the stimulation rate. Bench tests and studies on 31 animals were performed to evaluate long-term stability and biocompatibility. In five dogs, the AV node was destroyed by RF ablation to create a realistic animal model of a pacemaker patient. Sensor stability and response to exercise was followed up to a maximum implantation time of 4 years. Post-mortem examinations of the electrode surfaces and tissue response were performed. The results show that a gold electrode is more stable than glassy carbon. The Ag/AgCl reference was found not to be biocompatible, but activated carbon was stable enough for use as reference for the potentiostat. Double potential steps stabilize the sensor response in comparison to single steps. Blood protein adsorption on the gold surface decreased the oxygen transport but not the reaction efficacy. No adverse tissue reactions were observed. 相似文献

The response of a polarographic oxygen electrode to a step change and to an exponential change in bulk oxygen concentration was studied theoretically and experimentally for the case where there is a significant liquid film resistance at the outer side of the membrane-covered electrode. The probe response has been described by a mathematical model which takes into account the oxygen mass transfer through the liquid film and through the membrane. It is shown that substantial error could be introduced by neglecting the liquid film resistance. A test procedure is suggested to evaluate the error significance. 相似文献

The response of a polarographic oxygen electrode to a step change and to an exponential change in bulk oxygen concentration was studied theoretically and experimentally for the case where there is a significant liquid film resistance at the outerside of the membrane-covered electrode. The probe response has been described considering the start-up period of the concentration changes (the period of time that will elapse before the new concentration level is established and/or before the volumetric mass transfer coefficient kLa regains its steady-state value after the gas supply is opened to the fermentor). A linear change of the pertinent characteristics is assumed during this start-up period. It is shown that a substantial error could be introduced by neglecting the start-up period for cases frequently occurring in practice. In addition, the dependences of the probe response on the direct contact of bubbles with an electrode and on the fluid flow field around it were discussed. 相似文献

A method was developed for the in vivo measurement of oxygen concentration and diffusivity in the intervertebral disc using a bare gold cathode. The effects of surface adsorption were quantified using electrochemical methods and it was demonstrated that valid data can be obtained despite interactions between the electrode and the macromolecules of the intervertebral disc. The technique is used to show the dependence of the oxygen transport properties on tissue water content. 相似文献

Conventional anticancer drug sensitivity testing methods, such as succinate dehydrogenase inhibition (SDI), histoculture drug-response assay (HDRA) and collagen gel droplet embedded culture drug sensitivity testing (CD-DST), all require primary culturing and are extremely complex tests that require considerable time for analysis. A major drawback of these methods is that if culturing is not performed properly, ambiguous results are produced. Therefore, we developed an oxygen electrode apparatus that uses cellular metabolism as an indicator of anticancer drug sensitivity and investigated its usefulness in 29 breast cancer patients with the following histopathological classifications: papillotubular carcinoma (n= 15); solid tubular carcinoma (n= 6); and scirrhous carcinoma (n= 8). Comparison of anticancer drug sensitivity testing results obtained using the conventional HDRA method and those obtained using the oxygen electrode apparatus showed significant reproducibility between the two methods. In addition, similar anticancer drug sensitivity testing results using the oxygen electrode apparatus were obtained for in vivo testing of nude mice transplanted with established cancer cell lines. These findings suggest that the oxygen electrode apparatus is a useful procedure in anticancer drug sensitivity testing that provides better reproducibility and that is faster, more convenient, and less expensive than other testing methods. 相似文献

This study focuses on the preparation of a new type of Prussian Blue/polyaniline (PB/PANI)-modified electrode as oxygen reduction cathode, and its availability in microbial fuel cell (MFC) for biological power generation. The PB/PANI-modified electrode was prepared by electrochemical and chemical methods, both of which exhibited good electrocatalytical reactivity for oxygen reduction in acidic electrolyte. The MFC with PB/PANI-modified cathode aerated by either oxygen or air was shown to yield a maximum power density being the same with that of the MFC with liquid-state ferricyanide cathode, and have an excellent duration as indicated by stable cathode potential for more than eight operating circles. This study suggests a promising potential to utilize this novel electrode as an effective alternative to platinum for oxygen reduction in MFC system without losing sustainability. 相似文献

We measured the light response curve of photosynthetic oxygen evolution by illuminating a leaf disc in an air-tight windowed chamber. Oxygen production was measured by monitoring the quenching of luminescence of an organometallic ruthenium compound. A photodiode based chlorophyll a fluorometer was used to measure the luminescence intensity. Oxygen evolution measurements with a traditional oxygen electrode gave the same numerical values at different light intensities when the same leaf disk was tested. The quality of the measurement signal of the new method was found to be similar to that obtained with the oxygen electrode method. The new luminescence based system is more stable against electrical disturbances than an oxygen electrode, its response to oxygen pressure changes is very rapid, and the new method allows the same basic equipment to be used for chlorophyll fluorescence and oxygen measurements. 相似文献

An oxygen electrode was developed which measures steady-state respiration rates in a volume of 0.25 ml and at oxygen concentrations as low as 0.1 μm. The steady state was achieved by pumping air-equilibrated buffer into the respirometer at various rates. The method is most suitable for tissue slices. 相似文献

An inhibition enzyme electrode to measure toxic gases can be constructed using the respiratory enzyme cytochrome oxidase. The rate of enzyme turnover is followed by reducing cytochrome c on a gold electrode modified with the mediator bis(4-pyridyl) disulphate. The kinetics and mechanism of the system have been measured. The electrochemical kinetics for the oxidation of cytochrome c have been studied by rotating disc voltammetry and are shown to obey the Koutecky-Levich equation. The standard electrochemical rate constant is found to be 3 x 10(-3) cms-1. At ambient oxygen concentration the orders of the current with respect to the concentration of cytochrome oxidase, cytochrome c and oxygen are found to be 1/2, 1/2 and zero respectively. These orders are consistent with the rate limiting step being the turnover of the enzyme under saturated conditions in a thin reaction layer close to the electrode. At lower oxygen concentrations a good fit between the experimental results and a theoretical model further confirms the assignation of the mechanism. The rate constants describing the oxidation and reduction of the enzyme have been measured. The pH dependence of the current has been studied. 相似文献

A highly sensitive, miniature, inexpensive circuit for the measurement of PO2 in vivo has been described. The circuit is constructed from a current-to-voltage convertor, clamping circuit, differential amplifier, and reverse voltage and overvoltage protector. The design of the circuit allows us to apply voltage bias to the measuring electrode while grounding the preparation. The clamping circuit holds the selected bias voltage constant while the differential amplifier subtracts this bias potential from the PO2 signal yielding an output voltage that is proportional to the current sensed by the oxygen electrode. The circuit is protected from reverse voltage and overvoltage. 相似文献

This article demonstrates that the gentlest insertion of an oxygen measuring electrode into living tissue may distort the normal distribution of oxygen in the tissue, and thereby cause the electrode to determine erroneous oxygen tensions. A model tissue is studied. An electrode inserted into this tissue is found to distort tissue oxygen tensions, and to measure incorrect values. The effect can be minimized by using the smallest electrodes. 相似文献

Pyruvate oxidase from Pediococcus species was immobilized with gelatin and insolubilized in film form by tanning with glutaraldehyde. The film was fixed onto the tip of an oxygen electrode. The enzyme electrode was specific for pyruvate measurements. This electrode was sensitive to 0.1 mM and could be used up to a final pyruvate concentration of 2 mM.At each step of the enzymatic film preparation and assay 0.7 mM thiamine pyrophosphate, 10 μM flavin adenine dinucleotide, 5mM Mg2+ and 10 mM phosphate buffer were necessary.A computerized probe allowed successive measurements every 3 min for more than 20 h with the same enzymatic film. The reproducibillty for the same pyruvate concentration was 2% during 400 assays without special optimization.This enzyme electrode has many applications in basic (metabolism, enzymology) and applied (blood, yoghurt) research. Results obtained from assays carried out in yoghurt are presented. 相似文献

Metal-coordinated nitrogen-doped carbons are highly active in promoting electrochemical oxygen reduction reactions (ORR). The detailed kinetic and thermodynamic ORR behavior on three different FeN2-graphene [FeN2–G (A), (B) and (C)] structures was investigated in this work. The results show that formation of these FeN2–G configurations is energetically favorable; however, not all of them are effective for ORR. The higher HOMO energy and smaller HOMO–LUMO gap of FeN2–G (A) and (C) make them have strong adsorption strengths to ORR intermediates, which leads to occupation the active sites on the catalysts during ORR, and thus loss of catalytic activity. Examination of the results of ?G of each reduction step also drew the same conclusion. The ?G of the elementary steps of the ORR at zero electrode potential vs. standard hydrogen electrode are downhill only on FeN2–G (B). Throughout the entire four-electron ORR, the reduction of O to OH displays the highest reaction barrier. When the potential is >0.19 V, the reduction of OH species into water is uphill. Therefore, ORR activity is limited by two rate-determining steps on FeN2–G (B) at high potential: O and OH reduction steps. 相似文献

Abstract— The effect of halothane on rat cerebral cortical metabolism was studied by measuring 14CO2 production from various [14C]-labelled substrates. Glucose metabolism was depressed by clinically-used concentrations of halothane (0.35 mm ; 1.65 MAC) which did not significantly affect the metabolism of fructose or pyruvate. We concluded that halothane blocked an early step(s) in glycolysis preceding phosphofructokinase. Hexokinase was considered unlikely as the site of blockade, leaving glucose uptake or the glucose phosphate isomerase step as the most likely site(s). Higher concentrations of halothane (0.7 mm ; 3.3 MAC) were required to block the metabolism of fructose or pyruvate to CO2. This action of halothane was attributed to the known inhibition by halothane of electron transport processes. 相似文献

Boron-doped diamond has drawn much attention in electrochemical sensors. However there are few reports on non-doped diamond because of its weak conductivity. Here, we reported a glucose biosensor based on electrochemical pretreatment of non-doped nanocrystalline diamond (N-NCD) modified gold electrode for the selective detection of glucose. N-NCD was coated on gold electrode and glucose oxidase (GOx) was immobilized onto the surfaces of N-NCD by forming amide linkages between enzyme amine residues and carboxylic acid groups on N-NCD. The anodic pretreatment of N-NCD modified electrode not only promoted the electron transfer rate in the N-NCD thin film, but also resulted in a dramatic improvement in the reduction of the dissolved oxygen. This performance could be used to detect glucose at negative potential through monitoring the current change of oxygen reduction. The biosensor effectively performs a selective electrochemical analysis of glucose in the presence of common interferents, such as ascorbic acid (AA), acetaminophen (AP) and uric acid (UA). A wide linear calibration range from 10 microM to 15 mM and a low detection limit of 5 microM were achieved for the detection of glucose. 相似文献

A copper monolayer was formed on a gold electrode surface via underpotential deposition (UPD) method to construct a Cu UPD|DTBP-Protein G immunosensor for the sensitive detection of 17β-estradiol. Copper UPD monolayer can minimize the non-specific adsorption of biological molecules on the immunosensor surface and enhance the binding efficiency between immunosensor surface and thiolated Protein G. The crosslinker DTBP (Dimethyl 3,3'-dithiobispropionimidate · 2HCl) has strong ability to immobilize Protein G molecules on the electrode surface and the immobilized Protein G provides an orientation-controlled binding of antibodies. A monolayer of propanethiol was firstly self-assembled on the gold electrode surface, and a copper monolayer was deposited via UPD on the propanethiol modified electrode. Propanethiol monolayer helps to stabilize the copper monolayer by pushing the formation and stripping potentials of the copper UPD monolayer outside the potential range in which copper monolayer can be damaged easily by oxygen in air. A droplet DTBP-Protein G was then applied on the modified electrode surface followed by the immobilization of estradiol antibody. Finally, a competitive immunoassay was conducted between estradiol-BSA (bovine serum albumin) conjugate and free estradiol for the limited binding sites of estradiol antibody. Square wave voltammetry (SWV) was employed to monitor the electrochemical reduction current of ferrocenemethanol and the SWV current decreased with the increase of estradiol-BSA conjugate concentration at the immunosensor surface. Calibration of immunosensors in waste water samples spiked with 17β-estradiol yielded a linear response up to ≈ 2200 pg mL(-1), a sensitivity of 3.20 μA/pg mL(-1) and a detection limit of 12 pg mL(-1). The favorable characteristics of the immunosensors such as high selectivity, sensitivity and low detection limit can be attributed to the Cu UPD|DTBP-Protein G scaffold. 相似文献

The construction of a modified oxygen electrode based on the commercial Yellow Springs Instrument Clarke-type electrode is described. This electrode can be used in conventional 1 × 1 cm spectrophotometer cell for simultaneous measurement of oxygen consumption and a spectrophotometrically assayable parameter. Agitation of the reaction system is achieved by use of a Conrad magnetic stirrer driven by a magnetic couple to a small electric motor that carries a miniature bar magnet. 相似文献

A one-compartment glucose/O(2) biofuel cell based on an electrostatic layer-by-layer (LbL) technique on three-dimensional ordered macroporous (3DOM) gold electrode was described. A 3DOM gold electrode was synthesized electrochemically by an inverted colloidal crystal template technique. Then the macroporous gold electrodes were functionalized with Au nanoparticles (AuNPs) and enzyme, glucose dehydrogenase (GDH) or laccase. The (AuNPs/GDH)(n) multilayer modified macroporous gold electrode showed excellent bioelectrocatalytic activity towards glucose. The direct electroreduction towards oxygen was realized at (AuNPs/laccase)(n) films on 3DOM gold electrodes. The maximum power density of the cell with the macroporous film as matrix was 178muWcm(-2) at 226mV, which was 16 times larger than that of the biofuel cell with the flat electrode under the same condition. The proposed method is simple and would be applicable to enhance the power output of miniaturized biofuel cell. 相似文献

Oxygen consumption (respiration activity) has been found to be the most remarkable criterion for determining the viability of an embryo produced in vitro. In this study, we propose an accurate, simple, and user-friendly device for measurement of the oxygen consumption of single mammalian embryos. An integrated electrode array was fabricated to determine the oxygen consumption of a single embryo, including the blastocyst stage, which has an inhomogeneous oxygen consumption rate, using a single measurement procedure. A single mouse embryo was positioned in a microwell at the center of an integrated electrode array, using a mouthpiece pipette, and immobilized by a cylindrical micropit with good reproducibility. The oxygen consumption of two-cell, morula, and blastocyst stages was measured amperometrically using the device. The recorded current profile was corrected to take into consideration transient background current during the measurement. A calculation method for oxygen consumption based on spherical diffusion centered on the defined point of the device was developed. This procedure is quite simple because it is not necessary to estimate the radius of the embryo being measured. The calculated values of oxygen consumption for two-cell, morula, and blastocyst stages were 1.36 ± 0.33 × 10−15 mol s−1, 1.38 ± 0.58 × 10−15 mol s−1, and 3.44 ± 2.07 × 10−15 mol s−1, respectively. The increasing pattern of oxygen consumption from morula to blastocyst agreed well with measurements obtained using conventional scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). 相似文献
