Development of Novel Magneto-Biosensor for Sulfapyridine Detection

In this work, we report the development of a highly sensitive biosensor for sulfapyridine detection based on an integrated bio micro-electromechanical system (Bio-MEMS) containing four gold working electrodes (WEs), a platinum counter electrode (CE), and a reference electrode (RE). Firstly, the cleaned WEs were modified with 4-aminophenylacetic acid (CMA). Then, (5-[4-(amino)phenylsulfonamide]-5-oxopentanoic acid (SA2BSA) was immobilized onto the transducers surface by carbodiimide chemistry. The analyte was quantified by competitive detection with SA2BSA immobilized on the WE toward a mixture of Ab155 antibody (with fixed concentration) and sulfapyridine. In order to obtain a highly sensitive biosensor, Ab155 was immobilized onto magnetic latex nanoparticles surface to create a 3D architecture (Ab-MLNp). Using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), we investigated the influence of the Ab-MLNp on the sensitivity of our approach. The optimized system was analyzed, as competitive assay, with different concentrations of sulfapyridine (40 µM, 4 µM, and 2 nM) and with phosphate buffer solution. From data fitting calculations and graphs, it was observed that the EIS showed more linearity when Ab-MLNp was used. This result indicates that the magnetic latex nanoparticles increased the sensitivity of the biosensor.

Electrocatalytic Properties

Films composed of citrate stabilized gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and Poly-Lysine (pLys) were fabricated by electropolymerization on glassy carbon (GC) electrodes from 0.1M phosphate buffer solution at pH = 8. The films were topographically analyzed by atomic force microcopy whereas their electrocatalytic properties were studied by cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in aqueous solution using 0.0005M [Fe(CN)6] 3-/4- as redox probes and 0.1M NaClO4 as supporting electrolyte. The electron transfer process proved to be more efficient at the pLys-AuNP modified electrodes containing low amounts of gold nanoparticles (500 µL, 2.5×10-4M) than at the bare glassy carbon electrode. The heterogeneous electron transfer constant increased 2 orders of magnitude at the pLys-AuNP modified electrodes proving a more efficient electron transfer than at bare GC. These new films have a great potential for DNA biosensor applications.

Small Surface

The anodizing process and anions type present in the electrolyte during anodic oxidation are important parameters to improve oxide biocompatibility. From these parameters, it is possible to control the thickness and surface roughness of the oxide film. This control is of major importance, once blood clots can be avoided when the oxide film on the metal substrate has a small surface roughness (Ra ≤ 50 nm). In this paper, the thickness, surface roughness, and corrosion resistance of the anodized titanium film were studied in a phosphate buffer solution containing fluoride anions (0.6 w.t % NaF), at 20 V, 40 V, 60 V, and 80 V, using atomic force microscopy (AFM), spectroscopic ellipsometry (SE), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. It was observed that thickness and roughness tend to increase as the applied potential rises. For oxides grown in the solution without NaF, the growth rate is roughly 1.3 ± 0.2 nm/V. Surface roughness generally presents the same behaviour. Moreover, EIS and SE thickness measurements agree at 20 V and 60 V but disagree at 80 V. This may be associated with a possible dielectric breakdown at 80 V. The oxide film formed at 60 V showed the best corrosion resistance in relation to the other studied potentials. Globular structures were also observed using AFM on surfaces at 40 V, 60 V, and 80 V, which suggests oxide film nucleation. Oxide films formed in solution with NaF presented lower thickness, excellent corrosion resistance, and low surface roughness (Ra ≤ 50 nm).

In this work, porous titanium samples processed by powder metallurgy and coated with biomimetic coatings, obtained during different periods of immersion in a simulated body fluid (SBF), were tested for corrosion resistance in a phosphate buffer solution (PBS). Uncoated samples were also tested for comparison. The corrosion resistance of both types of titanium samples was evaluated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and potentiodynamic polarisation curves. The electrochemical results indicated the formation of a surface film on the porous Ti samples with immersion in the SBF solution and this biomimetic film increased their corrosion resistance. This film helps osteointegration besides increasing corrosion resistance.

Selective Binding

The electrochemical behavior of nucleobases has been studied in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (PBS), pH 7.4 without removing oxygen, using glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance experiment (EIS) and square wave voltammetry (SWV) were employed in the measurements of the nucleobases electrochemical signals at GCEs. Guanine (G) and adenine (A) produced well-defined oxidation peaks at about +0.66 and +0.96 V under the CV sweep at 100 mV/s, respectively. SWV was particularly useful in investigating the electrochemical behaviour of pyrimidine bases. In the SWV detection, thymine (T) clearly appeared an oxidation peak at 1.1 V, while cytosine (C) and uracil (U) did a complex oxidation peak at 1.3 V. Nucleobases possess an irreversible and adsorption-controlled electrochemical process at GCEs in 0.1 M PBS (pH 7.4). The average surface concentrations (Γ) of G and A on the surface of the GCE were estimated to be about 1.6515×10−10and 8.8232×10−11mol/cm2, respectively. Due to the selective interactions of nucleobases with each other, the nucleobase oxidation peaks shift and new oxidation peaks appeared. The new oxidation peaks at +1.62 and 1.55 V may correspond to the oxidation of GC pairs and AT pairs, respectively. The detection of the electrochemical behaviour and selective binding of nucleobases in a physiological PBS at pH 7.4 is of particular interest for electrochemical sensor applications in physiological media.

The electrochemical properties of silver nanoparticle (d∼5 nm) synthesized within aminosilica film from spontaneous reduction reaction were examined using cyclic voltammetry and the results show that the nanocomposite film exhibits similar redox property as solution-synthesized silver nanoparticles when measuring in phosphate buffer solution and its redox potentials were found to be sensitive to the presence of chloride ions. It also shows that silver nanoparticles and hydrolyzed aminosilica increase the electron diffusivity of the aminosilica film. Both results confirm that an accurate reference electrode suitable for microfluidic devices can be created simply by treating an aminosilica-coated electrode with a silver nitrate solution. Furthermore, a humidity sensor based on silver-silica nanocomposite film has also been demonstrated.

Abstract A simple and precise analytical approach developed for single and simultaneous determination of resorcinol (RC) and hydroquinone (HQ) in pharmaceutical samples using carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate as ionic liquid and ZnFe2O4 nanoparticle. A significant enhancement in the peak current and sensitivity of the proposed sensor observed by using modifiers in the composition of working electrode compared to bare CPE which is in accordance with the results obtained from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy investigations. Electrochemical investigations revealed a well-defined irreversible oxidation peak for RC over a wide concentration range from 3.0 µM to 500 µM in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.0) with the linear regression equations of Ip (µA) = 0.0276 CRC (µM) + 0.5508 (R2 = 0.997). The limit of detection and quantification for RC analysis were found to be 1.46 µM and 4.88 µM, respectively. However, the obtained SW voltammograms for simultaneous determination of RC and HQ exhibited a desirable peak separation of about 360 mV potential difference and a satisfactory linear response over the range of 50-700 µM and 5-350 µM with the favorable correlation coefficient of 0.991 and 0.995, respectively. The diffusion coefficient (D) of RC and the electron transfer coefficient (α) at the surface of ZnFe2O4/NPs/IL/CPE estimated to be 2.83×10−4 cm s−1 and 0.76. The proposed sensor as a promising and low-cost method successfully applied for determination of RC in commercial pharmaceutical formulations such as the resorcinol cream of 2% O/W emulsion available on the market with the recovery of 98.47±0.04.
