We report on the electrodeposition of gold nanoparticles ( AuNPs ) on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) followed by deposition of nickel tetrasulfonated phthalocyanine ( NiTSPc ) film by electropolymerization (poly- NiTSPc -GCE) to form Poly- NiTSPc / AuNPs -GCE. The presence of the gold nanoparticles caused a lowering of the anodic and cathodic peak separation (ΔE p ) of ferricyanide from 126 mV on poly- NiTSPc to 110 mV on poly- NiTSPc / AuNPs . The electrooxidation of nitrite improved on modified electrodes compared to GCE, with the latter giving E p = 0.78 V and the modified electrodes gave E p = 0.62 V or 0.61 V. Poly- NiTSPc / AuNPs -GCE had higher currents compared to poly- NiTSPc -GCE. This indicates the enhancement effect caused by the AuNPs . Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and chronoamperometric studies also showed that poly- NiTSPc / AuNPs -GCE was a better electrocatalyst than poly- NiTSPc -GCE or AuNPs -GCE.

In this study, cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical ımpedance spectroscopy have been used to investigate the electrochemical behaviour of quercetin (3,3′,4′,5,7-pentahydroxyflavone) on the procaine and aminophenyl modified electrode. The modification of procaine and aminophenyl binded electrode surface with quercetin was performed in +0,3/+2,8 V (for procaine) and +0,4/+1,5 V (for aminophenyl) potential range using 100 mV s-1scanning rate having 10 cycle. A solution of 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate in acetonitrile was used as a non-aquous solvent. For the modification process a solution of 1 mM quercetin in 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate was used. In order to obtain these two surface, a solution of 1 mM procaine and 1 mM nitrophenyl diazonium salt in 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate was used. By using these solutions bare glassy carbon electrode surface was modified. Nitrophenyl was reduced to amine group in 0.1 M HCl medium on the nitrophenyl modified glassy carbon elelctrode surface. Procaine modified glassy carbon electrode surface was quite electroactive. Although nitrophenyl modified glassy carbon elelctrode surface was electroinactive, it was activated by reducing nitro group into amine group. For the characterization of the modified surface 1 mM ferrocene in 0.1 M tetrabutylammonium tetrafluoroborate for cyclic voltammetry and 1 mM ferricyanide/ferrocyanide (1:1) mixture in 0,1 M KCl for electrochemical impedance spectroscopy were used.

We report the modulation of the specific metal gation properties of a peptide and demonstrate a highly selective sensor for copper(II) ion. The neuropeptide oxytocin (OT) is reported for its high affinity towards Zn2+ and Cu2+ at physiological pH. The binding of the metal ions to OT is tuned by altering the pH of the medium. OT was self-assembled on glassy carbon electrode using surface chemistry, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) was used to probe the binding of Cu2+. Our results clearly indicate that at pH 10.0, the binding of Cu2+ to OT is increased compared to that at pH 7.0, while the binding to Zn2+ becomes almost negligible. This proves that the selectivity of OT towards each of the ions can be regulated simply by controlling the pH of the medium and hence allows the preparation of a sensing device with selectivity to Cu2+.

Melamine has been used as a non-protein nitrogenous additive in food products to artificially increase the apparent “false” protein content. Melamine is known as a dangerous and poisonous substance for human health and it causes diverse diseases. An electrochemical sensor for melamine detection has been developed by modification of a glassy carbon electrode using copolymer poly[DMAEMA-co-styrene], gold nanoparticles, and methylene blue. The characterization of the modified electrode was conducted using several analysis techniques including cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), chronoamperometry (CA), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). The electrochemical detection of melamine was performed by impedance spectroscopy. Obtained results revealed that the developed sensor has a large detection range from 5.0 × 10−13 to 3.8 × 10−8 M with a low detection limit of 1.8 × 10−12 M (at S/N = 3). Various interfering species such as phenol, hydroquinone, and bisphenol A have been used and their behavior on modified electrode has been studied.

The electrochemical dynamics of a film of FeCo nanoparticles were studied on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The film was found to be electroactive in 1 M LiClO4 containing 1:1 v/v ethylene carbonate dimethyl carbonate electrolyte system. Cyclic voltammetric experiments revealed a diffusion-controlled electron transfer process on the GCE/FeCo electrode surface. Further interrogation on the electrochemical properties of the FeCo nanoelectrode in an oxygen saturated 1 M LiClO4 containing 1:1 v/v ethylene-carbonate-dimethyl carbonate revealed that the nanoelectrode showed good response towards the electro-catalytic reduction of molecular oxygen with a Tafel slope of about 120 mV which is close to the theoretical 118 mV for a single electron transfer process in the rate limiting step; and a transfer coefficient (α) of 0.49. The heterogeneous rate constant of electron transfer (ket), exchange current density (io) and time constant (τ) were calculated from data obtained from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and found to have values of 2.3 x 10-5 cm s-1, 1.6 x 10-4 A cm-2 and 2.4 x 10-4 s rad-1, respectively.

The electrochemical behavior of Bi+3 ions on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode, in acidic media and in the presence of tamoxifen, was investigated. Cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, differential pulse voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy were used to find the probable mechanism contributing to the reduction of the peak height of bismuth oxidation with an increase in the concentration of tamoxifen. The obtained results show a slight interaction between the bismuth species and tamoxifen which co-deposit on the surface of glassy carbon electrode. Therefore, the reduction in the peak height of bismuth oxidation as a function of tamoxifen concentration was used to develop a new differential pulse anodic striping voltammetry method for determination of trace amount of tamoxifen. The effects of experimental parameters on the in situ DPASV of Bi+3 ions in the presence of tamoxifen shown the optimal conditions as: 2 mol L-1 H2SO4 (1% v v-1 MeOH), a deposition potential of -0.5 V, a deposition time of 60 s, and a glassy carbon electrode rotation rate of 300 rpm. The calibration curve was plotted in the range of 0.5 to 6 µg mL-1 and the limits of detection and quantitation were calculated to be 3.1 × 10-5 µg mL-1 and 1.0 × 10-4 µg mL-1, respectively. The mean, RSD, and relative bias for 0.5 µg mL-1 (n=5) were found to be 0.49 µg mL-1, 0.3%, and 2%, respectively. Finally, the proposed method was successfully used for the determination of tamoxifen in serum and pharmaceutical samples.
