Poly N-(2-cyanoethyl)pyrrole films have been synthesized by electrochemical polymerization and characterized by cyclic voltammetry, scanning electron microscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Polymeric coatings prepared on the surface of a thickness-shear-mode acoustic wave sensor have been used to examine response selectivity to a number of gas-phase probe molecules. The responses of the poly N-(2-cyanoethyl)pyrrole based sensor are compared with the parent polypyrrole device and rationalized in terms of the molecular interactions between probes and polymer films. The polar cyano functionality enhances interactions with analytes such as acetonitrile. Keywords: gas sensor, thickness-shear-mode acoustic wave sensor, poly N-(2-cyanoethyl)pyrrole film, polypyrrole film, conducting polymer.

Thickness Shear

A thickness-shear mode acoustic wave biosensor operated within a flow-through system was used to examine the response of mouse retinal tissue to radiation. Control experiments conducted with respect to exposure of the bare gold electrodes of the device under various conditions of light intensity and bathing solution yielded reversible changes in resonant frequency (Fs) and motional resistance (Rm). The magnitude of transient changes was proportional to light intensity, but independent of solution type. These alterations in acoustic parameters were ascribed to acoustic coupling phenomena at the electrode-to-liquid interface. Pre-differentiated retina from mouse samples deposited on the thickness shear mode (TSM) electrode exposed to a high light intensity condition also exhibited reversible changes in both Fs and Rm, compared to control experiments involving a coating used to attach the tissue to the electrode. In this case, the radiation-instigated reversible responses for both acoustic parameters exhibited a reduction in magnitude. The changes are ascribed to the alteration in viscoelasticity of the retinal matrix on the TSM electrode surface. The precise biophysical mechanism responsible for the changes in Fs and Rm remains a challenge, given the complex make up of retinal tissue.
