A gold electrode was modified with electropolymerized films of p-methoxyphenol by its oxidative polymerization from an alkaline solution by cyclic voltammetry. The modified electrode was then used to determine dopamine (DA) in the presence of a high concentration of ascorbic acid (AA) by differential pulse voltammetry. The peak positions as well as relative sensitivity DA/AA were affected by the potential window used for the polymerization. For polymerization between 0 and 1.0 V, the peak potentials recorded in a phosphate buffer solution (pH = 7.2) were 516 and 312 mV versus Ag/AgCl for DA and AA, respectively. In addition to the effects of pH and the type of electrolyte on the linearity range and detection limit are investigated. The detection limit for 3s-test is 0.1 nM. The high selectivity and sensitivity for DA was found to be due to charge discrimination/analyte accumulation.

Objective: To build up an advantageous strategy for sensitive determination of catechol (CC), a poly (proline) modified graphene paste electrode (PPMGPE) was fabricated and used as a voltammetric sensor for the determination of CC. Methods: The performance of the modified electrode was studied using cyclic voltammetric (CV) and differential pulse voltammetric method (DPV). The modified electrode was characterized by CV and DPV. The surface of the modified electrode was examined by FESEM. The electrochemical behavior of CC in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.5) was inspected using bare graphene paste electrode (BGPE) and PPMGPE. Results & Conclusion: The PPMGPE shows a lower limit of detection, calculated to be 8.7×10–7mol L−1 (S/N=3). This modified electrode was applied successfully for the determination of CC in water samples without applying any sample pretreatment.

Poly (xylenol orange) film-coated graphite pencil electrode was fabricated for the detection of dopamine in the presence of ascorbic acid and uric acid in phosphate buffer solution of pH 7. The redox peaks obtained at modified electrode shows a good enhancement. The scan rate effect was found to be a diffusion-controlled electrode process. The electrochemical oxidation of dopamine was depended on pH, and the limit of detection was found to be 9.1×10−8 M. The simultaneous study gave and excellent result with great potential difference between dopamine and other bioactive organic molecules by using both cyclic voltammetric and differential pulse voltammetric techniques. The present modified graphite electrode was applied to the detection of dopamine in the injection samples, and the recovery obtained was satisfactory.

Introduction: Today, nano-composite gels based on multi-walled carbon nanotubes in room temperature ionic liquid (MWCNTs-IL-Gel) are an interesting subject. Materials and Methods: The nano-composite gels showed convenient electrochemical properties against redox activities of electroactive biomolecules. Also, the evaluation of hemoglobin concentration is a critical point in the clinical sample. So, the kind of nano-composite gel which is composed of NH2 functionalized MWCNTs and [amim] Br IL and anthraquinone 2-carboxilic acid (AQ) was fabricated and applied in electrochemical detection of hemoglobin. Cyclic voltammograms of NH2.MWCNTs-IL-AQ modified electrode exhibited redox peak sat -0.5 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution ((pH 7.0). Results: As the hemoglobin added into the measured solution, the redox current decreased. Conclusion: It can be concluded that the increment in the concentration of hemoglobin caused the decrease in the redox currents in cyclic voltammetry. The NH2.MWCNTs-IL-AQ would detect the concentration of hemoglobin from 1.64 x10−8 to 4.89x10−7 M.

Loss in Ascorbic Acid contents of orange juice heated under different situations and pH was researched. In this experiment, Navanila oranges from Spain were squeezed and filtered by using a vacuum pump to make orange juice samples. These samples were extracted and make up with 0.1% Formic Acid in HPLC water, HPLC water and phosphate buffer solution (pH=6). Pasteurization was achieved at 60, 65 and 70℃ over 15, 25 and 35min period by using the water bath method and cooled to room temperature immediately. After that, Ascorbic Acid contents were analyzed by HPLC and 0.1% Formic Acid in HPLC water, HPLC water and phosphate buffer solution (pH=6) were used as mobile phases separately for their solutions. HPLC standard samples of Ascorbic Acid were prepared which means 0.1g Ascorbic Acid was weighted and then diluted into 50-250mg/ L solutions to make calibration lines for three solutions. The wavelength of Ascorbic Acid was 245nm but it changed to 296nm when samples in phosphate buffer solution (pH=6). Results showed that Ascorbic Acid concentration is more at 60℃ at 15min and there was a total decline trend with the increase of time and temperature. After statistics analysis, it has a significant affect (P<0.5) related to Ascorbic Acid contents with temperature and pH.

AbstractA new binuclear complex of copper2+, [LCu2+(CH3COO)2Cu2+L](CH3COO)2 where L is N,N-bis(phthalimide)ethylenediamine, was synthesised and characterised. The complex ion [LCu2+ (CH3COO)2Cu2+L]2+ was encapsulated into ZSM-5 zeolite and used to modify the surface of the glassy carbon electrode. This modified electrode, in a phosphate buffer solution at pH 7.0, exhibited an oxidation potential for dopamine (DA) and ascorbic acid (AA) at electrode potentials of 0.230 V and −0.090 V vs. Ag/AgCl respectively, a separation of 0.320 V. The electro-oxidation of DA or AA on the modified electrode is independent of each other. No interference was observed from Na+, K+, Cl−, SO42−, Mg2+, Ca2+, Zn2+, Fe2+, and glucose. The detection limits obtained were 2.91 × 10−7 M for DA and 3.5 × 10−7 M for AA.

Ten litres of tapwater were seeded with 200 µl (8×108 HAV particles) of a commercial (Organon Teknika) suspension of hepatitis A virus. Following WALTER and RÜDIGER (1981), the contaminated tapwater was treated with a two-stage technique for concentration of viruses from solutions with low virus titers. The two-stage technique consists of aluminium hydroxideflocculation (200 mg/l Al2(SO4)3. 18 H2O, pH 5,4-5,6) as first stage, the second stage of a lysis of aluminium hydroxidegel with citric acid/sodium citrate-buffer (pH 4,7; 1 ml/l sample), separation of viruses from the lysate by ultracentrifugation and suspension in 1 ml phosphate buffer solution (pH 7,2). A commercial solid phase enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used for the detection of HAV. HAV was detecterl in the 10.000:1 concentrates, but not in the seeded 101 samples. Approximately 4×108 of the inoculated 8×108 HAV particles were found in the 1 ml concentrates. The efficiency of detection is about 50%, the virus concentration 5000-fold. Although the percentage loss of HAV in comparison with concentration by means of membrane filtration is similar, the ultracentrifugation method yields a larger sample/concentrate ratio, so that smaller amounts of HAV can be detected more efficiently because of the smaller end-volume.

A modest, efficient, and sensitive chemically modified electrode was fabricated for sensing curcumin (CRC) through an electrochemically polymerized titan yellow (TY) modified carbon paste electrode (PTYMCPE) in phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.0). Cyclic voltammetry (CV) linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) approaches were used for CRC detection. PTYMCPE interaction with CRC suggests that the electrode exhibits admirable electrochemical response as compared to bare carbon paste electrode (BCPE). Under the optimized circumstances, a linear response of the electrode was observed for CRC in the concentration range 2 × 10−6 M to 10 × 10−6 M with a limit of detection (LOD) of 10.94 × 10−7 M. Moreover, the effort explains that the PTYMCPE electrode has a hopeful approach for the electrochemical resolution of biologically significant compounds. Additionally, the proposed electrode has demonstrated many advantages such as easy preparation, elevated sensitivity, stability, and enhanced catalytic activity, and can be successfully applied in real sample analysis.
