A novel electrochemical sensing platform was constructed based on a facile self-assembly procedure synthetic laminar molybdenum trioxide dihydrate (MoO[Formula: see text]H2O)-graphene composite. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy were employed to characterize the morphology and composition of the MoO[Formula: see text]H2O-graphene composite. As a model molecule, thiourea was utilized to investigate the electrochemical behaviors of the MoO[Formula: see text]H2O-graphene composite modified glass carbon electrode. The results show that the composite modified electrode has higher electron transfer rate than that of graphene modified electrode and bare glass carbon electrode meanwhile the peak currents of it has a good linear relationship with thiourea concentrations in the range of [Formula: see text] ([Formula: see text]) with detection limit of 4.99[Formula: see text][Formula: see text]M ([Formula: see text]). This novel electrochemical sensor exhibits a higher absorption capacity ([Formula: see text][Formula: see text]mol/cm2), a good reproducibility (1.41% relative standard deviation (RSD)), excellent anti-interference and a high stability. These excellent electrochemical properties of the MoO[Formula: see text]H2O-graphene composite are attributed to the loose and porous structure and the synergistic effects between graphene and MoO[Formula: see text]H2O, which make this composite material hold great potential applications for electrochemical sensor.

The Palladium-copper nanoparticles (PdCu NPs) have been prepared by potentiostatic electrodeposition from a mixture electrolyte of H2PdCl4 and CuSO4,then placed the electrode in sulfuric acid using cyclic voltammetry sweep a few laps to fabricate the PdCu NPs/glass carbon electrode (Pd-Cu/GCE). The modified electrode electrochemical properties of a preliminary study found that this modified electrode has good stability and electrochemical activity, experiments show that formic aicd has good voltammetric response of the electrode. The electrical activity of the formic acid in the Pd/GCE is lower than that in the Pd-Cu/GCE, this is due to the synergistic effect of the bimetal. When the Cu content is increased gradually in H2PdCl4 and CuSO4 a mixed solution, the formic acid oxidation peak currentlower, because Cu has no electrocatalytic activity for formic acid oxidation.

Estradiol is a common endocrine disrupting chemicals. Therefore, it is necessary to develop simple, sensitive and rapid methods for testosterone bioanalysis. In this work, poly (N-(3-aminobenzyl)-N,N-dimethyl-N-dodecyl ammonium bromide) (PAS), a novel cathodic organic electrochemiluminescence (ECL) emitter, was synthesized by in-situ polymerization of the corresponding monomer on glass carbon electrode. The PAS ECL system was constructed with the PAS modified electrode, and potassium persulfate (KPS) as oxidizing agent and co-reactant. It was applied to the ECL detection of estradiol. According to the results of fluorescence and dynamic light scattering (DLS), mixed micelle of PAS and estradiol was formed. The combination of PAS with estradiol intensified the fluorescence of the ECL system and enlarged the colloidal size. Hydrogen bonds and electrostatic interaction may play a role in the combination. The linearity for estradiol quantification is 6 pM to 1.5 nM with a LOD of 0. 1 pg/mL. The modified electrode can be easily renewed by washing with ethanol and water and the relative error in estradiol measurement does not exceed ± 7% in 7 time recycling. The detection of estradiol in urine sample qualified the ECL system with a recovery of 94.5 to 105% and the calculated coefficient of variation of 3.8%. This indicates that the PAS ECL system has the potential to detect estradiol in urine.

Europium doped tantalum oxide (europium-Ta2O5) particles were synthesized with a low temperature hydrothermal method. The electrochemical behaviour of an europium-Ta2O5 film electrode in 0.1 mol dm-3KCl solution containing 5 mmol dm-3K3Fe(CN)6was investigated using cyclic voltgrammetry (CV). The CV results indicated that the europium-Ta2O5film electrode exhibited good stable and reversible electrochemistry properties. The electrochemical reaction of K3Fe(CN)6was a diffusion-controlling process on the europium-Ta2O5film electrode. The europium-Ta2O5particles might have potential applications in electrochemical fields.
