A potentiostatic pre-electrolysis at constant voltage enables the reduction of the lead (Pb2+) and the accumulation of the metallic lead at and into the carbon paste;the reoxidation of the Pb (Linear sweep voltammetry) leads to the anodic striping peak. The effect of the main operating parameters on the shape of the peak and the magnitude of the current was examined and their optimal values were determined. Then calibration was achieved and the method was successfully applied (using all the optimized parameters) to the determination of lead in water, with a detection limit of 0.138 μg·L-1. Compared to other methods (ICP-AES for example), the proposed method offers a satisfactory detection limit of the Pb2+ (0.138 μg·L-1) because of the important specific area of the carbon paste electrode, for a significantly lower cost. Besides, there is no observed loss in the electrode answer in terms of peak current, which means that there is no any irreversible steps nor deactivation of the electrode, even after ten successive measurements;only reduction of the lead followed by the deposit oxidation was observed at the electrode.展开更多

The poly(neutral red) film was electropolymerized by cycling the potential between -0.8 V and +0.8 V. The anodic stripping voltammetric response for EP was found to be dependent on accumulation time and potential. By using a poly(neutral red) film modified carbon fibre microelectrode with a 1 min preconcentration at -1.2 V in biological phosphate buffer solution (pH=7.4), a good linear relationship between the anodic stripping peak currents and EP concentrations was obtained in the range of 2.0×10 -7 ￣ 2.0×10 -5 mol/L. The detection limit was up to 9.0 ×10 -8 mol/L. Moreover, 400 times higher concentrations of vitamin C did not interfere with the measurement of EP. This method was used for determining EP concentrations in epinephrine hydrochloride injection solution with satisfactory results.展开更多

Gold nanoparticles show high sensitivity, stability and compatibility for biological molecules as electrochemical intercalators. Here unimolecular hairpin oligonucleotides were self-assembled onto Au electrode surface and elongation on solid phase was carried out to double strand oligonucleotides with transcription factor NF-r,13 binding site. Gold nanoparticle-catalyzed Ag deposition was detected by anodic stripping voltammetry （ASV） for NF-kB binding. It was indicated that this method for sequence specific DNA binding protein detection shows pronounced specificity, sensitivity and we can find application in transcription regulation research, open reading frame characterization and functional gene inspection by this method.展开更多

In this method, the electrode is activated electrochemically by scanning 5 replicates over the potential range from +500 to +1400 mV immersing in 0.5 M HCl solution. Following this step, the nitrite sample containing 0.1 M KCl is preconcentrated on the activated electrode at +500 mV for 30 s. The deposited anions are then oxidized by different modes of sweep in the oxidation direction. Chemical and electrical parameters affecting the voltammetric measurements are optimized. The peak current is linear proportional to the NO2- concentration within the range 0.41 - 4.1 μg/ml, with detection limit 0.187 μg/m using differential pulse mode. The relative standard deviation is 0.285% for 2.46 μg/ml (five replicates). No interference is observed due to oxygen dissolved in the sample so that nitrogen purging is not needed in this case. The result obtained by the modified electrode is more accurate and selective than the unmodified electrode.展开更多
