Electrochemical characterization of poly(eriochrome black T) modified glassy carbon electrode and its application to simultaneous determination of dopamine, ascorbic acid and uric acid

A polymerized film of eriochrome black T (EBT) was prepared on the surface of a glassy carbon (GC) electrode in alkaline solution by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The redox response of the poly(EBT) film at the GC electrode appeared in a couple of redox peak in 0.1 M hydrochloride and the pH dependent peak potential was −55.1 mV/pH which was close to the Nernst behavior. The poly(EBT) film-coated GC electrode exhibited excellent electrocatalytic activity towards the oxidations of dopamine (DA), ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA) in 0.05 mM phosphate buffer solution (pH 4.0) and lowered the overpotential for oxidation of DA. The polymer film modified GC electrode conspicuously enhanced the redox currents of DA, AA and UA, and could sensitively and separately determine DA at its low concentration (0.1 μM) in the presence of 4000 and 700 times higher concentrations of AA and UA, respectively. The separations of anodic peak potentials of DA-AA and UA-DA reached 210 mV and 170 mV, respectively, by cyclic voltammetry. Using differential pulse voltammetry, the calibration curves for DA, AA and UA were obtained over the range of 0.1-200 μM, 0.15-1 mM and 10-130 μM, respectively. With good selectivity and sensitivity, the present method provides a simple method for selective detection of DA, AA and UA in biological samples.

Electrocatalytic oxidation of hydroxylamine on dinuclear ruthenium phthalocyanine (RuPc)₂ modified electrode is studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and rotating disc electrode (RDE) techniques. A two-electron oxidation of hydroxylamine to N₂O is observed in the pH range of 9–13. A suitable mechanism is proposed by analyzing the rate equation and the Tafel slope.     

Cost-effective disposable thiourea film modified copper electrode for capacitive immunosensor

Cost-effective disposable electrodes were fabricated from copper clad laminate, usually used for printed circuit board (PCB) in electronic industries, by using dry film photoresist. Electro-oxidation (anodisation) was employed to obtain a good formation of thiourea film on the electrode surface. The affinity binding pair of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) and anti-carcinoembryonic antigen (anti-CEA) was used as a model system. Anti-CEA was immobilized on thiourea film via covalent coupling. This modified electrode was incorporated with a capacitive system for CEA analysis. This capacitive immunosensor provided a linear range between 0.01 and 10 ng ml⁻¹ with a detection limit of 10 pg ml⁻¹. When applied to analyze CEA in serum samples, the results agreed well with the enzyme linked fluorescent assay (ELFA) technique (P > 0.05). The proposed strategy for the preparation of disposable modified copper electrode is very cost effective and simple. Moreover, it provides good reproducibility. This technique can easily be applied to immobilize other biological sensing elements for biosensors development.     

Application of Poly(butylenes 2-methylsuccinate) as Migration Resistant Plasticizer for Poly(vinyl chloride)

The bio-based and biodegradable polyester poly(butylenes 2-methylsuccinate) (PBM) was successfully used as a polymeric plasticizer to modify poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) in this work. The tensile properties, plasticization efficiency estimated by the lowered glass transition temperature and the enhanced elongation at break of the PVC/PBM blends and the migration stability of the PBM were investigated. It was indicated that the migration-resistant property of PVC plasticized with PBM was greatly superior to that with dioctyl phthalate (DOP). Furthermore, the tensile properties were comparable to that of PVC/DOP, indicating that the environmentally friendly PBM can be used as an alternative plasticizer to remove the potential health risks from migrating phthalates during applications.

Electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol on carbon paste electrode modified by nickel ions dispersed into poly (1,5-diaminonaphthalene) film

Poly (1,5-diaminonaphthalene) film was prepared by using the repeated potential cycling technique in an acidic solution at the surface of carbon paste electrode. Then transition metal ions of Ni(II) were incorporated to the polymer by immersion of the modified electrode in a 1.0 M nickel chloride solution. The electrochemical characterization of this modified electrode exhibits stable redox behavior of the Ni(III)/Ni(II) couple. Also, cyclic voltammetric experiments showed that methanol electrooxidized at the surface of this Ni(II) dispersed polymeric modified carbon paste electrode [Ni/P-1,5-DAN/MCPE]. The mechanism of methanol oxidation changes from diffusion control at low concentration to a catalytic reaction at higher methanol concentration. The effects of both scan rate and methanol concentration on the anodic peak height of the methanol oxidation were discussed.     

Electropolymerized poly(2-vinylpyridine) coatings as ion-exchange polymer modified electrodes

The effects of pH and of the nature and concentration of the electrolyte on the electrochemical behaviour of the Fe(CN)^3–/4– ₆ charge-transfer reaction at a poly(2-vinylpyridine)-coated electrode formed by electropolymerization have been studied. Cyclic voltammetry during the Fe(CN)^3– ₆ incorporation process was combined with measurement of the saturated concentration of the Fe(CN)^3– ₆ confined in the films to investigate the electrochemical behaviour and the fundamental nature of the ion-exchange polymers. The poly(2-vinylpyridine) films formed by electropolymerization were found to have better properties (i.e., larger amount of Fe(CN)^3– ₆ can be incorporated at various pH values and films are more chemically stable under acidic conditions) as polymer-modified electrodes than those formed by solvent evaporation. Of the various anions studied, ClO^– ₄ was found to be distinct from the others (Cl^–, NO^– ₃, Br^– and SO^2– ₄). On the one hand, the polymer films exposed to ClO^– ₄ are more dense and rigid than those exposed to other anions and show relatively little electroactivity. On the other hand, when the films are exposed to increasing concentrations of Cl^–, the films become more swollen, thereby reducing the resistance within the film and enhancing the rate of charge-transfer from the outer film surface to the electrode surface.     

Poly(glutamic acid) nanofibre modified glassy carbon electrode: Characterization by atomic force microscopy, voltammetry and electrochemical impedance

Glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) were modified with poly(glutamic acid) acid films prepared using three different procedures: glutamic acid monomer electropolymerization (MONO), evaporation of poly(glutamic acid) (PAG) and evaporation of a mixture of poly(glutamic acid)/glutaraldehyde (PAG/GLU). All three films showed good adherence to the electrode surface. The performance of the modified GCE was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry, and the films were characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The three poly(glutamic acid) modified GCEs were tested using the electrochemical oxidation of ascorbic acid and a decrease of the overpotential and the improvement of the oxidation peak current was observed. The PAG modified electrode surfaces gave the best results. AFM morphological images showed a polymeric network film formed by well-defined nanofibres that may undergo extensive swelling in solution, allowing an easier electron transfer and higher oxidation peaks.     

Voltammetric studies of a cobalt(II)-4-methylsalophen modified carbon-paste electrode and its application for the simultaneous determination of cysteine and ascorbic acid

A carbon-paste electrode (CPE) chemically modified with the cobalt(II)-4-methylsalophen (CoMSal) as a Schiff base complex was used as a highly sensitive and fairly selective electrochemical sensor for simultaneous determination of minor mounts of ascorbic acid (AA) and cysteine. This modified electrode shows very efficient electrocatalytic activity for anodic oxidation of both AA and cysteine via substantially decreasing of anodic overpotentials for both compounds. The mechanism of electrochemical oxidation of both AA and cysteine using CoMSal-modified electrode was thoroughly investigated by cyclic voltammetry and polarization studies. Results of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using this modified electrode show two well-resolved anodic waves for the oxidation of AA and cysteine, which makes it possible for simultaneous determination of both compounds. A linear range of 1 × 10⁻⁴ to 5 × 10⁻⁷ M for cysteine in a constant concentration of 1 × 10⁻⁴ M AA in buffered solution (as a background electrolyte) was obtained from DPV measurements using this electrode. The linear range, which is obtained for AA in the presence of 1 × 10⁻⁴ M cysteine, was in the range of 1 × 10⁻⁴ to 1 × 10⁻⁶ M. The modified electrode has good reproducibility (RSD ≤ 2.5%), low detection limit (sub-micromolar) and high sensitivity for the detection of both AA and cysteine with a very high stability in its voltammetric response. Differential pulse voltammetry using the modified electrode exhibited a reasonable recovery for a relatively wide concentration range of cysteine spiked to a synthetic human serum sample.     

ITO electrode modified by self-assembling multilayer film of polyoxometallate on poly(vinyl alcohol) nanofibers and its electrocatalytic behavior

Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanofiber mats were collected on indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate by electrospinning method. A multilayer film composed of α-[P₂W₁₈O₆₂]⁶⁻ (abbr. P₂W₁₈), a polyoxometallate (POM) anion, and poly(diallymethylammonium chloride) (abbr. PDDA) was fabricated by layer-by-layer (LBL) self-assembly technique on the PVA/ITO electrode. The PDDA/P₂W₁₈ multilayer film could be unselectively or selectively deposited on the PVA/ITO electrode via changing the amount of PVA nanofibers on the ITO substrate. The scanning electron microscope (SEM) images showed that when the electrospun time was short the PDDA/P₂W₁₈ multilayer film was unselectively deposited on PVA nanofiber mats because the amount of PVA nanofibers was too little to cover most of the ITO substrate. However, when the electrospun time was long enough, the PDDA/P₂W₁₈ multilayer film was selectively deposited on PVA nanofiber mats because of the larger surface area and higher surface energy of PVA nanofibers in comparison with the flat ITO substrate. Growth process of the multilayer film was determined by cyclic voltammetry (CV). Electrocatalytic effects of the PDDA/P₂W₁₈ multilayer film unselectively and selectively deposited on the PVA/ITO electrode on NO₂⁻ were observed.     

Polyaniline Langmuir-Blodgett film modified glassy carbon electrode as a voltammetric sensor for determination of Ag ions

A highly sensitive electrochemical sensor made of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) coated with a Langmuir-Blodgett film (LB) containing polyaniline (PAn) doped with p-toluenesulfonic acid (PTSA) (LB/PAn-PTSA/GCE) has been used for the detection of trace concentrations of Ag⁺. UV-vis absorption spectra indicated that the PAn was doped by PTSA. The surface morphology of the PAn LB film was characterized by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The electrochemical properties of this LB/PAn-PTSA/GCE were studied using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and cyclic voltammetry. The LB/PAn-PTSA/GCE was used as a voltammetric sensor for determination of trace Ag⁺ at pH 5.0 using linear scanning stripping voltammetry. Under the optimal experimental conditions, the stripping current was proportional to the Ag⁺ concentration over the range from 6.0 × 10⁻¹⁰ mol L⁻¹ to 1.0 × 10⁻⁶ mol L⁻¹, with a detection limit of 4.0 × 10⁻¹⁰ mol L⁻¹. The high sensitivity, selectivity, and stability of this LB/PAn-PTSA/GCE also demonstrated its practical utility for simple, rapid and economical determination of Ag⁺ in water samples.     

Application of surfactant modified zeolite carbon paste electrode (SMZ-CPE) towards potentiometric determination of sulfate

A sulfate-selective electrode based on surfactant modified zeolite (SMZ) particles into carbon paste has been proposed (SMZ-CPE). The electrode was fully characterized in terms of composition, response time, ionic strength range, thermal stability and usable pH range. The electrode containing 10% of the SMZ was exhibited linear response range to sulfate species in the range of 2.0 × 10⁻⁶-3.1 × 10⁻³ M with detection limit of 2.0 × 10⁻⁶ M and Nernstian slope of 29.8 ± 0.8 mV per decade of sulfate concentration. The electrode response remains constant in the pH range of 4-10 and in the presence of 1 × 10⁻⁴-2 × 10⁻³ M NaNO₃. The response of the electrode reaches equilibrium within several second after immersing the electrode in sulfate solution. A successful application of sulfate determination sulfate in real sample of a pharmaceutical zinc sulfate capsule, using direct potentiometry, is presented. The electrode was also used for potentiometric titration of sulfate. The validation of the obtained results in each case was proved by statistical methods.     

Preparation and characterisation of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(neutral red) modified carbon film electrodes, and application as sensors for hydrogen peroxide

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) films have been prepared for the first time on carbon-film electrodes (CFE) in aqueous solution using electropolymerisation by potential cycling, potentiostatically and galavanostatically. Characterisation of the modified electrodes was done by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and the stability of the polymer films was probed. The coated electrodes were tested for application as hydrogen peroxide sensors, by oxidation and reduction. A novel polymer film was also formed by modification of CFE by co-electropolymerisation of EDOT and the phenazine dye neutral red (NR) – (PEDOT/PNR) with a view to enhancing the properties for sensor applications. It was found that hydrogen peroxide reduction at the PEDOT/PNR coated electrodes could be carried out at a less negative potential, the sensor performance comparing very favourably with that of other polymer-modified electrodes reported in the literature.     

Studies based on the electrochemical response of 2-(2-nitrophenyl)-1H-benzimidazole at chemically modified electrodes with over-oxidized poly-1-naphthylamine

The development of a simple and efficient method to 2-(2-nitrophenyl)-1H-benzimidazole (NB) electrochemical determination using a polymer film coated chemically modified electrode is described. A glassy carbon (GC) electrode was modified employing an electro-polymerized film of 1-naphtylamine (1-NAP) followed by an over-oxidation treatment in 0.2 M sodium hydroxide solution (poly-1-NAPox electrode).The electrochemical behaviour of NB at the poly-1-NAPox electrode was investigated in a mixture of 10% ethanol + 90% buffer solution (pH 2) by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square-wave voltammetry (SWV). The experimental results suggested that the poly-1-NAPox electrode had a good effect on NB electrochemical response because it avoided the electrode surface fouling as a consequence of the adsorption of NB reduction products, which was found when a bare GC electrode was employed as the working electrode. The NB cathodic current was dependent on the polymeric film over-oxidation degree (α).NB could be determined in the range from 2 × 10⁻⁶ to 5 × 10⁻⁵ M. The NB detection and quantification limits were 5 × 10⁻⁷ and 1.7 × 10⁻⁶ M, respectively. The percent relative standard deviation of the peak current to 10-replicated measurement using 1.2 × 10⁻⁵ M NB solution was 1.4%. The method showed to be rapid, simple and with a good sensitivity.     

Poly(ether-ester)s modified with different amounts of fumaric moieties

A series of novel poly(ether-ester)s modified with fumaric moieties is synthesized by transesterification in the melt of dimethyl terephthalate (DMT), dimethyl fumarate (DMF), 1,4-butanediol (BD) and poly(tetramethylene oxide) (PTMO, M?_n=1000 g/mol). The effect of the introduction of double bonds into both the hard and soft segments and their content on the structure and the thermal and rheological properties of the synthesized polymers are investigated. The introduction of double bonds into the polymer main chains increases the molecular weight of the copolyesters, but reduces the crystallinity of the hard segments and related properties such as modulus and hardness. The presence of double bonds improves the high temperature properties and thermal stability, especially the thermo-oxidative one, lowers the melting and crystallization temperature and increases the glass transition temperature. The incorporation of fumaric moieties into the macrochains improves the adhesive strength of the polymer to a metal surface.

Nanocomposites of poly(vinylidene fluoride) with organically modified silicate

We report a study of the impact of cold crystallization on the structure of nanocomposites comprising poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and Lucentite STN™ organically modified silicate (OMS). Nanocomposites were prepared from solution over a very wide composition range, from 0.01 to 20% OMS by weight. Thermal preparation involved cold crystallization at 145 °C of quenched, compression-molded plaques. Static and real-time wide and small angle X-ray scattering (WAXS, SAXS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) were used to investigate the crystalline phase of PVDF. For OMS content greater than 0.50 wt%, WAXS studies show that that the silicate gallery spacing increases modestly in the nanocomposites compared to neat OMS film, indicating a level of polymer intercalation.Using Gaussian peak fitting of WAXS profiles, we determine that the composition range can be divided into three parts. First, for OMS greater than 0.5 wt%, alpha phase fraction, ?_alpha, is insignificant (?_alpha∼0-0.01). Second, at the intermediate range, for OMS between 0.5 wt% down to 0.025 wt%, beta phase dominates and the beta fraction, ?_beta, is related to alpha by ?_beta>?_alpha. Third, below 0.025 wt% OMS, alpha dominates and ?_alpha>?_beta. The ability of small amounts of OMS (≥0.025 wt%) to cause beta crystal domination is remarkable. Overall, crystallinity index (from the ratio of WAXS crystal peak area to total area) ranges from about 0.36 to 0.51 after cold crystallization. Real-time WAXS studies during heating of initially cold crystallized nanocomposites show that there is no inter-conversion between the alpha and beta phase PVDF crystals, where these crystals coexist at room temperature. While all samples showed a strong SAXS Bragg peak, indicating existence of two-phase lamellar stacks, the sample containing predominantly beta phase had poorly correlated lamellar stacks, compared to samples containing predominantly alpha phase.
