The electrochemical study of oxidation-reduction properties of horseradish peroxidase

Oxidation-reduction properties of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) have been investigated by using direct electrochemical methods. Two successive separated distinct one-electron processes of HRP were obtained and the related physiological processes were described. The monolayer coverage of HRP at the electrode surface is about 50 pmol/cm(2). UV-Vis spectrophotometry and stable amperometry prove that the enzyme electrode possesses catalytic activity for H2O2 in the absence of a mediator and it might offer an opportunity to build the third generation of biosensors for analytes, such as H2O2, glucose and cholesterol etc. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science S.A.

Based on cyclic voltammetry, ESR, and UV-visible spectra studies of iron(II)-8-quinolinol complex in liquid phase, a radical substitution mechanism is proposed and used to demonstrate the experimental facts clearly.

Interaction of N-methylpyrrolidone with doped polyaniline

The interaction of N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) and organic acid doped polyaniline (PAn) is studied by UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy. A dedoping effect is observed when the doped PAn solution is extremely diluted by NMP. This effect is due to a strong interaction between NMP and the dopant acid. The competition between NMP and PAn is responsible for the poor conformation of doped polyaniline in NMP solution and the poor conductivity of the film cast from this solution.

Electrochemical behavior of the molybdotungstate heteropoly complex with neodymium, K10H3[Nd(SiMo7W4O39)(2)]center dot xH(2)O in aqueous solution

The electrochemical behavior of the title compound (denoted Nd(SiMo7W4)(2)(13-)) in aqueous solution has been studied using cyclic voltammetry, sampled d.c. voltammetry, differential pulse voltammetry and bulk electrolysis with coulometry, The stable pH range of Nd(SiMo7W4)(2)(13-) is determined with UV-visible spectra. In the potential range between 0.70 and -0.45 V vs. SCE, the anion in pH 3.8 aqueous solution undergoes one-, one-, two- and two-electron steps of four redox processes attributed to electron addition and removal from the molybdate-oxo framework. The adsorption of the anion on the dropping mercury electrode and a self-inhibition influence of the adsorbed anions on the redox process of those anions dissolved in solution are found. The unusual dependence of the formal potentials on pH is explained with the competition of the protonation and ion-pair formation due to the high negative charge of Nd(SiMo7W4)(2)(13-) and its reduced forms. The electrocatalytic effects of the anion on the bromate are investigated.

An integrated CaF2 crystal optically transparent infrared (ir) thin-layer cell was designed and constructed without using any soluble adhesive materials. It is suitable for both aqueous and nonaqueous systems, and can be used not only in ir but also in uv-vis studies.

The newly designed ir cell was applied to investigate the electrochemical reduction process of bilirubin in situ, which provided direct information for identifying the structure of the reduction product and proposing the reaction mechanism.
