Immobilization of Hemoglobin on Cobalt Nanoparticles-modified Indium Tin Oxide Electrode： Direct Electrochemistry and Electrocatalytic Activity

A cobalt nanoparticles-attached indium tin oxide（CoNPs/ITO） electrode was applied to the immobilization of hemoglobin（Hb） and an Hb modified CoNPs/ITO electrode（Hb/CoNPs/ITO） was prepared. The direct electron transfer of Hb was shown by the well-behaved voltammetric responses for Hb/CoNPs/ITO electrode and the effects of scan rate and pH value were observed. Based on the catalytic activity of Hb immobilized on the CoNPs/ITO electrode toward the reduction of H2O2, a mediator-free H2O2 sensor was developed. A linear relationship existed between the catalytic current and the H2O2 concentration in a range of 1.0--100.0 μmol/L with a detection limit （S/N=3） of 0.2μmol/L.

Application of Sodium Ion Sensor Based on the SnO_2/ITO Glass in the Detection of Rinsing Solution for Contact Lenses

This paper presents the studying results of the sodium ion sensor device based on the SnO_2/ITO glass structure in the detection of rinsing solution for contact lenses.The selective membrane contains poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC),bis (2-ethylhexyl) sebacate (DOS),(12-crown-4) methylmalonate (B12C4),and sodium tetrakis (4-fluoropbenyl) borate dehydrate (NaTFBD). The final weight ratios are PVC:DOS:B12C4:NaTFBD=33:66:2:2.In this condition,the sensor has performances with linear sensitivity,short response time,good repeatability and selectivity.The sensor was used to measure the rinsing solution for the contact lenses.Because the experimental results show close to the accurate value for four commercial products,this sensor can preliminary be used in detecting the rinsing solution for the contact lenses.Using this structure and sodium-sensing membrane to construct the sodium sensor is proven successfully in this application.

Preparation and Degradation Phenol Characterization of Ti/SnO_2-Sb-Mo Electrode Doped with Different Contents of Molybdenum

The Ti/SnO2-Sb-Mo electrodes doped with different molar ratios of molybdenum（Mo） were prepared by sol—gel method in order to investigate the effect of Mo on the characterization of Ti/SnO2-Sb—Mo electrodes.X-ray diffraction（XRD）,field-emission scanning electron microscopy（FE-SEM）,energy dispersive spectrometry（EDS）,and linear scanning voltammetry（LSV） were used to scrutinize the coating material and the electrochemical activity.The concentration of phenol,the value of total organic carbon（TOC）,the mineralization current efficiency（MCE） and the ultraviolet—visible spectroscopy（UV-Vis） spectrum of phenol solution were measured over the electrochemical degradation process of phenol to confirm the phenol degradation characterization of Ti/SnO2-Sb-Mo electrodes.Results showed that the electrode at the Mo content of 1 at.%provided optimal catalytic activity for phenol degradation and the longest life time.The removal percentage of phenol and TOC were 99.62%and82.67%,respectively.The Ti/SnO2-Sb-Mo electrode with 1 at.%of Mo reached maximum MCE of phenol oxidation.The kinetic investigation of phenol and TOC degradation displayed the pseudo-first order reaction model.The Ti/SnO2-Sb-Mo electrode coating with 7 at.%Mo presented the highest oxygen evolution overpotential,indicating the diverse effects for different Mo molar ratio doping.

Electrocatalytic reduction of ortho nitrobenzaldehyde using modified aluminum electrode and its determination

A simple, cost effective and rapid electrochemical method has been developed for the determination of micro level ortho nitrobenzaldehyde（ONB） based on outstanding properties of modified aluminum electrode tin nanorods/anodic aluminum oxide/aluminum（SnNR/AAO/Al） for the first time. The SnNR/AAO/Al electrode was fabricated by a second step anodization, followed by electrodeposition and its electrochemical behavior was investigated in detail. The cyclic voltammetry results indicated that the SnNR/AAO/Al electrode exhibited efficient electrocatalytic activity toward reduction of ONB in the acidic solution. It provides an appreciable improvement of reduction peak for ONB at-0.721 V.Furthermore, various kinetic parameters such as transfer electron number, transfer proton number and standard heterogeneous rate constant were calculated from the scan rates.The electrocatalytic behavior was further exploited as a sensitive detection scheme for the ONB determination by differential pulse voltammetry. Under the optimized conditions, the concentration range and detection limit are 0.1-100 μmol/L and 0.05 μmol/L, respectively,for ONB. The analytical performance of this modified sensor has been evaluated for detection of real sample such as river water and recovery of ONB was achieved all-out up to102.3% under standard addition method.
