The chemically modi- fied electrodes exhilbited an excellent permselectivity for uric acid of undissociated form in an acidic medium. The current response sensitivity of uric acid at the modi- fied electrodes was markedly increased by properly anodizing activation of underly- ing electrodes and overoxidizing treatment of polypyrrole film. The voltammetric response of uric acid at the chemically modified electrode was linearly related to itinvestigatedtion in the range of 4. 0 ×10-7 -8. 0 ×10-5 mol/L in pH 5 buffer solu- tions. Ascorbic acid in less than 150-fold excess did not interfere with the voltam- metric determination of uric acid. The proposed procedure was utilized to determine uric acicl in human urine and serum samples without any pretreatment.展开更多

Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry techniques were applied for the investigation and comparison of bare CPE and NGMCPE surfaces. Our voltammetric and spectroscopic studies showed gold nanoparticles are enable to facilitate electron transfer between the accumulated label on DNA probe modified electrode and electrode surface and enhance the electrical signals and lead to an improved detection limit. The immobilization of a 15-mer single strand oligonucleotide probe on the working electrodes and hybridiza- tion event between the probe and its complementary sequence as a target were investigated by differential pulse voltammetry （DPV） responses of the EG accumulated on the electrodes. The effects of some experimental variables on the performance of the biosensors were investigated and optimum conditions were suggested. The selectivity of the biosensors was studied using some non-complementary oligonucleotides. Finally the detection limits were calculated as 1.35×10^-10 mol/L and 5.16×10^-11 mol/L on the CPE and NEGCPE, respectively. In addition, the bio-sensors exhibited a good selectivity, reproducibility and stability for the determination of DNA sequences.展开更多
