In the field of determination of vitamin B9 (folic acid, FA), we have described the development of a sensitive electrochemical sensor through promoting the screen-printed electrode (SPE) and taking the advantage of zinc ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (ZnFe2O4MNPs). Cyclic voltammetry (CV) experiments demonstrated the powerful activity of ZnFe2O4MNPs/SPE for electrooxidation of FA by showing the prominent oxidation peak at 600 mV vs. Ag/AgCl. By differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) measurements, a linear relation between current response and concentration of vitamin B9 was determined in the range of 1.0–100.0 µM, and detection limit is found to be 0.3 µM (S/N=3). Except high sensitivity, the developed sensor demonstrated high stability, reproducibility and repeatability, and was also successfully applied to specify FA in real samples of vitamin B9 tablets and human urine.

Flower-like La3+/ZnO nanocomposite was facile synthesized. A simple and ultrasensitive sensor based on graphite screen printed electrode (SPE) modified by La3+/ZnO nanoflower was developed for the electrochemical determination of dopamine. The electrochemical behavior of dopamine was studied in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS) using cyclic voltammetry (CV), chronoamperometry (CA) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Compared with the unmodified graphite screen printed electrode, the modified electrode facilitates the electron transfer of dopamine, since it notably increases the oxidation peak current of dopamine. Also, according to CV results the maximum oxidation of dopamine on La3+/ZnO/SPE occurs at 150 mV which is about 140 mV more negative compared with unmodified SPE. Under optimized conditions, the modified electrode exhibited a linear response over the concentration range from 0.15 to 300.0 μM, with a detection limit of 0.08 μM (S/N = 3). The proposed sensor exhibited a high sensitivity, good stability and was successfully applied for dopamine determination in dopamine ampoule, with high recovery.

In this paper, carbon nanotubes modified screen-printed electrode (CNTs/SPE) was prepared and the CNTs/SPE was employed for the electrochemical determination of antioxidant substance Chlorogenic acids (CGAs). A pair of well-defined redox peak of CGA was observed at the CNTs/SPE in 0.10 mol∙L-1 acetic acid-sodium acetate buffer (pH 6.2) and electrode process is adsorption-controlled. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) method for the determination of CGA were proposed based on the CNTs/SPE. Under the optimal conditions, the proposed method exhibited linear ranges from 4.73×10-7 to 4.45×10-5 mol∙L-1, the linear regression equation was Ipa(µA) = 4.1993 C (mol∙L-1)+1.1039 (r = 0.9976) and the detection limit for CGA could reach 3.25×10-6 mol∙L-1. The recovery of matrine was 94.74~106.65% (RSD = 2.92%) in coffe beans. The proposed method is quick, sensitive, reliable, and can be used for the determination of CGA.

La2O3/Co3O4 nanocomposite was synthesized and then used for the modification of screen-printed electrode (SPE) prior to the electrochemical determination of sertraline. A significant increment in peak current response was observed and peak potential also shifted towards less positive potentials showing the facilitated oxidation procedure at surface of modified SPE (La2O3/ /Co3O4/SPE). The quantitative determination of sertraline was carried out by using different pulse voltammetry and the anodic peak current was found to increase with increasing sertraline concentration in the linear range of 5.0400.0 ?M with limit of detection as 1.0 ?M. The prepared La2O3/Co3O4/SPE has been successfully used for detecting sertraline in sertraline tablet and urine samples with excellent recoveries.

A simple strategy for determination of tryptophan (TRP) based on Fe3O4@SiO2/GO nano­composite modified graphite screen printed electrode (Fe3O4@SiO2/GO/SPE) is re­ported. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) were used to characterize the performance of the sensor. The Fe3O4@SiO2/GO/SPE displayed excellent electro­che­mical catalytic activities. The oxidation overpotentials of tryptophan decreased significantly and its oxidation peak current increased dramatically at Fe3O4@SiO2/GO/SPE. Under the optimized experimental conditions tryptophan showed linear response over the range of 1.0-400.0 μM. The lower detection limit was found to be 0.2 μM for tryptophan. The prac­tical application of the modified electrode was demonstrated by measuring the concen­tration of tryptophan in real samples.

Background: The unnatural levels of dopamine (DA) result in serious neurological disorders such as Parkinson’s disease. Electrochemical methods which have the obvious advantages of simple operation and low-cost instrumentation were widely used for determination of DA. In order to improve the measurement performance of the electrochemical sensor, molecular imprinting technique and graphene have always been employed to increase the selectivity and sensitivity. Methods: An electrochemical sensor which has specific selectivity to (DA) was proposed based on the combination of a molecular imprinting polymer (MIP) with a graphene (GR) modified gold electrode. The performance and effect of MIP film were investigated by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) in the solution of 5.0 ×10-3 mol/L K3[Fe(CN)6] and K4[Fe(CN)6] with 0.2 mol/L KCl at room temperature. Results: This fabricated sensor has well repeatability and stability, and was used to determine the dopamine of urine. Under the optimized experiment conditions, the current response of the imprinted sensor was linear to the concentration of dopamine in the range of 1.0×10-7 ~ 1.0×10-5 mol/L, the linear equation was I (µA) = 7.9824+2.7210lgc (mol/L) with the detection limit of 3.3×10-8 mol/L. Conclusion: In this work, a highly efficient sensor for determination of DA was prepared with good sensitivity by GR and great selectivity of high special recognization ability by molecular imprinting membrane. This proposed sensor was used to determine the dopamine in human urine successfully.

Electrochemical characteristics of carvacrol were investigated on a screen-printed electrode (SPE) modified with La2O3/Co3O4 nanocomposite by using voltammetric techniques, which displayed a well-defined peak for sensitive carvacrol determination in phosphate buffer solution (PBS) at pH 7.0. La2O3/Co3O4 nanoparticles demonstrated suitable catalytic activity for carvacrol determination by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) technique. Besides, determination of carvacrol in a real samples was recognized in the light of electrochemical findings and a validated voltammetric technique for quantitative analysis of carvacrol in a real formulation was proposed. The DPV peak currents were found to be linear in the concentration range of 10.0 to 800.0 μM. The limit of detection (LOD) was found to be 1.0 μM.

Electrocatalytic oxidation of multi-nanostructured active electrode modified by platinum nanoparticles on glucose was examined. Based on 0.5mol/L KOH solution, we see a sensitive and good-shaped oxidation peak current near -0.77V (VS, SCE) by using differential pulse voltammetry method to scan in the range of -0.9~0.4V.The peak is regarded as the quantitative peak. There is a good linear relationship between glucose concentration and the peak current in the range of 1.0×10-2~1.0×10-5 mol/L. The linear correlation coefficient is 0.99864.The detection limit is 1.0×10-6mol/L. If added 0.06 m mol/L ascorbic acid or 0.3m mol/L uric acid (simulating human blood components), the determination of glucose is not interfered with. Results of the determination of glucose concentration in the blood are satisfactory.
