Electrochemical detection of glucose was achieved at a glucose oxidase (GOx)-cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc)-modified boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode without any additional electron mediator in the electrolyte solution. The surface of the hydrogen-terminated BDD thin film prepared by microwave plasma-assisted CVD was modified with 4-vinylpyridine (4VP) via photochemical modification. The 4VP-BDD was then immersed in a CoPc solution to obtain CoPc-BDD. A poly(p-phenylenediamine) (PPD) thin film containing GOx was coated on the CoPc-BDD electrode surface via electropolymerization. At the GOx/PPD-CoPc-BDD electrode, anodic current for glucose oxidation was observed with a sigmoidal voltammetric curve, indicating successful electron mediation of H2O2generated as the result of glucose oxidation at GOx. The signal-to-background ratio for voltammetric current of glucose detection was larger at the GOx/PPD-CoPc-BDD electrode than at the GOx/PPD-modified platinum electrode due to the smaller background current of the modified BDD electrode.

The aim of this study was to obtain a simple and fast modified electrode for the detection of paclitaxel (PCX) and oxaliplatin (OXA) in aqueous solution. PCX and OXA are some of the most used cytostatic drugs suitable to treat various types of cancer, e.g., ovarian, breast, lung, cervical, pancreatic, Kaposi’s sarcoma. The development of an easy method for its determination is required for both the dosage in cancer therapy and due its potential presence in environment and especially, in water samples. Boron doped diamond (BDD) electrode was electrochemically modified with copper (Cu) by chronoamperometry (CA) operated under optimized conditions of -0.75 V/SCE potential level for 120 minutes. Copper-modified boron-doped diamond (Cu/BDD) exhibited the electrocatalytic effect towards the paclitaxel and oxaliplatin oxidation, allowing their detection in 0.1 M NaOH supporting electrolyte. The limiting anodic current was noticed at the potential value of +0.75 V/SCE that increased linearly with PCX concentration, and at the potential value of + 0.6V/SCE for the oxaliplatin. Some mechanical aspects related to the PCX oxidation at Cu/BDD electrode in 0.1 M NaOH supporting electrolyte were determined using cyclic voltammetry (CV) recorded at various scan rates. CV was based on compounds detection and achieved the sensitivity of 0.65 μA/µM for oxaliplatin and respective, 5.47 μA/µM for paclitaxel. Keywords: copper, electrochemical detection, modified boron-doped diamond electrode paclitaxel, oxaliplatin

ABSTRACTThis paper presents the study of the electrochemical deposition of Cu/Sn alloy nanoparticles on Boron Doped Diamond (BDD) films in order to improve their electrocatalytic activity and selectivity for application in nitrate electrochemical reduction. Cyclic voltammetry measurements evidenced the formation of Cu/Sn alloy electrodeposited on BDD electrode. The electrodeposited Cu/Sn can be better visualized by analyzing the dissolution process. By studying the dissolution peak separately, the dissolution peak of the Sn was obtained at a more positive potential, when compared with the dissolution peak of Cu. From the scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) analysis, the homogeneous distribution of the Cu/Sn alloys particles on BDD surface with grain size in nanometric scale was verified. From X-ray diffraction analysis, two Cu/Sn alloy phases (Cu41Sn11 and Cu10Sn3) were identified for the electrodeposits obtained at -0.5V and charge of 0.26 C. The electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate in 0.1 M Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer solution with pH 9 was analyzed. The BDD electrode modified with Cu/Sn alloy nanoparticles proved to potentiate the electrocatalytic reduction of nitrate.
