Environmental estrogen pollution and estrogen effects on the female reproduction system are well-recognized scientifically. Among the estrogens, 17 β-estradiol is a priority in environmental estrogen pollution, and it is also a major contributor to estrogen which regulates the female reproduction system. 17 β-estradiol is carcinogen and has a tumor promotion effect relating to breast cancer, lung cancer and others. It also affects the psychological well-being such as depression, fatigue and others. Thus, a simple method of detection of 17 β-estradiol will be important for both environmental estrogen pollution and women’s health care. This study demonstrates a simple-use, cost effective 17 β-estradiol biosensor system which can be used for both environment and women’s health care applications. The bio-recognition mechanism is based on the influence of the redox couple, K3Fe (CN) 6/K4Fe (CN) 6 by the interaction between 17 β-estradiol antigen and its α-receptor (ER- α; α-estrogen antibody). The transduction mechanism is an electrochemical analytical technique, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The levels of 17 β-estradiol antigen studied was between 2.25 pg/mL to 2,250 pg/mL, Phosphate buffered saline (PBS), tap water from the Cleveland regional water district, and simulate urine were used as the test media covering the potential application areas for 17 β-estradiol detection. An interference study by testosterone which has a similar chemical structure and molecular weight as those of 17 β-estradiol was carried out, and this 17 β-estradiol biosensor showed excellent specificity without any interference by similar chemicals.

The accumulation of high levels of lead or lead ions in a human body is harmful, particularly to children. Its neurotoxic effect is profound, damaging the central and peripheral nervous systems, resulting in stunted growth, behavioral problems and learning disabilities. The major source of lead or lead ions comes from the drinking water and tap water. The assessment of the water quality, including lead or lead ion content, is usually completed by a regional water department professional. This assessment is time-consuming and requires expensive instruments and skilled operators.   Therefore, there is a need to produce a simple-use and relatively inexpensive method to detect lead or lead ions in water samples. This research has developed a simple-use, cost effective sensor system for the detection of lead ions in tap water. An under-potential deposited bismuth sub-layer on a thin gold film based electrochemical sensor was designed, manufactured and evaluated.   Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurement technique was employed in this detection. Tap water from the Cleveland, Ohio, USA regional water district was the test medium.   Concentrations of lead ion in the range of 8 X 10-8 M to 8 x 10-4 M were evaluated.   This DPV detection system required 3 -6 minutes to complete the detection measurement. A longer measurement time of 6 minutes was used for the lower lead ion concentration. The selectivity of this lead ion sensor was very good, and Fe III, Cu II, Ni II and Mg II at a concentration level of 5×10-4 M did not interfere with the lead ion measurement.

Conditions were found for the determination of 6-mercaptopurine (I) and 6-thioguanine (II) by TAST polarography, differential pulse polarography and fast-scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limits were 10-6, 8 . 10-8, and 6 . 10-8 mol l-1, respectively. A further lowering of the detection limit to 2 . 10-8 mol l-1 was attained by preliminary accumulation of the determined substances at the surface of a hanging mercury drop.

Optimum conditions were found for the determination of 4-nitrobiphenyl by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range 1 . 10-5 to 2 . 10-7 mol l-1. A further increase in sensitivity was attained by adsorptive accumulation of this substance on the surface of the working electrode, permitting determination in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-8 mol l-1 with one minute accumulation of the substance in unstirred solution or (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with three-minute accumulation in stirred solution. Linear scan voltammetry can be used to determine 4-nitrobiphenyl in the concentration range (2 – 10) . 10-9 mol l-1 with five-minute accumulation in stirred solution, with the advantage of a smoother baseline and smaller interference from substances that yield only tensametric peaks.
