A comparison study on the performance characteristics and surface characterization of two different solid-contact selective potentiometric thrombin aptasensors, one exploiting a network of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and the other the polyaniline (PANI), both acting as a transducing element, is described in this work. The molecular properties of both SWCNT and PANI surfaces have been modified by covalently linking thrombin binding aptamers as biorecognition elements. The two aptasensors are compared and characterized through potentiometry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) based on the voltammetric response of multiply charged transition metal cations (such as hexaammineruthenium, [Ru(NH3)6]3+) bound electrostatically to the DNA probes. The surface densities of aptamers were accurately determined by the integration of the peak for the reduction of [Ru(NH3)6]3+to [Ru(NH3)6]2+. The differences and the similarities, as well as the transduction mechanism, are also discussed. The sensitivity is calculated as 2.97 mV/decade and 8.03 mV/decade for the PANI and SWCNTs aptasensors, respectively. These results are in accordance with the higher surface density of the aptamers in the SWCNT potentiometric sensor.

ABSTRACTSingle walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) were synthesized by methane CVD on a supported mixed transition metal (Fe/Mo) catalyst. Gas feed composition and reaction temperature were varied to identify the threshold conditions for the growth of SWNT. These reaction conditions closely approximate pseudo-equilibrium conditions with some active reaction intermediate (likely chemisorbed carbon atoms) that proceeds to nucleate and grow SWNT. This value also serves as an estimated upper limit of the free energy of formation ΔG*(T)SWNT since the active intermediate proceeds to form SWNT through a process that is thought to be essentially irreversible. The difference relative to graphite is in good agreement with literature values predicted from simulations for SWNT nuclei containing approximately 80 atoms, while considerably larger than that predicted for bulk 5, 5 SWNT. Our estimate over the range 700 to 1000 °C of 16.1 to 13.9 kJ/mol is considerably greater than the free energy of formation for diamond (between 5.8 and 6.9 kJ/mol from 700 to 925 °C).
