Direct electron communication between glucose oxidase and carbon electrode covered with polypyrrole

Glucose oxidase can be effectively adsorbed onto the polypyrrole(PPy) thin film electrochemically formed on an anodized galssy carbon electrode(GCEa). Direct electron communication between the redox of GOD and the modified electrode was successfully achieved, which was detected using cyclic voltammetry. GOD entrapped in PPy film still remained its biological activity and could catalyze the oxidation of glucose. As a third generation biosensor, GOD-PPy/GCEa responded linearly up to 20 mM glucose with a wider linear concentration range.

Study on the modified electrode of conducting polymers .3. Electron spin resonance characteristic of polypyrrole film electrode doped with heteropolyanions

The ESR of PPy films doped with Co (W2O7)(6)(10-) and CuW12O406- ions were reported and discussed. Results show that heteropolyanions not only play the role of neutralizing electricity in the PPy film, but also interact with the PPy molecular chain to form some adducts. The adducts affect the electronic structure of the PPy film and are unstable at more positive or more negative potentials. Dysonian ESR lineshape was recorded for the dry PPy film with CuW12O406- for the first time.

Ac voltammetric and square wave voltammetric study of the self-assembled monolayers of thiol-functionalized viologen derivative

Electroactive self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) containing viologen group are formed through the adsorption of thiol-functionalized viologen compound CH3(CH2)(9)V2+(CH2)(8)SH, where V2+ is N,N'-dialkylbipyridinium (i.e. a viologen group), onto gold electrodes from methanol/water solution and its electrochemical behavior is investigated ty Ac voltammetry and square wave voltammetry, which have the high sensitivity against background charging. The viologen SAM formed is a sub-monolayer and the normal potentials corresponding to the two successive one-electron transfer processes of the active centers (viologen) are -360 mV and -750 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl) in 0.1 mol/L phosphate buffer solutions (pH 6.96) respectively, and the standard electron transfer rate constant is 9.0 s(-1). The electrochemical behavior of this SAM in various solutions has been preliminarily discussed.

ELECTROCHEMICAL-BEHAVIOR OF MOLIBDOSILICIC HETEROPOLY COMPLEX WITH DYSPROSIUM AND ITS DOPED POLYPYRROLE FILM-MODIFIED ELECTRODE

In this paper, the electrochemical behaviour of molibdosilicic heteropoly complex with dysprosium K10H3[Dy(SiMo11O39)(2)]. xH(2)O [denoted as Dy(SiMo11)(2)] was studied. Voltammetric behavior of this complex was greatly influenced by pH of solutions. The polypyrrole (PPy) film doped with this complex was prepared by electropolymerization of pyrrole in the presence of Dy(SiMo11)(2) under potential cycling conditions. The microenvironment within the PPy film has an effect on the electrochemical behavior of Dy(SiMo11)(2) entrapped in the film. The film electrode can catalyze the reduction of ClO3- and BrO3-.

EFFECTS OF DOPANT AND SOLVENT ON THE PROPERTIES OF POLYPYRROLE - INVESTIGATIONS WITH CYCLIC VOLTAMMETRY AND ELECTROCHEMICALLY INSITU CONDUCTIVITY

A new method for electrochemically in situ conductivity measurements based on a reusable glassy carbon disc carbon fibre array double electrode is described. Using this technique and cyclic voltammetry, we have investigated the effects of the doping anion and solvent on the electrochemical properties of polypyrrole film. The electroactivity and potential dependent conductivity of polypyrrole film are strongly affected by solvent and the doping anion's solubility in the solvent, and also by the history of electrochemical treatments in different electrolyte solutions. It is very interesting that NO3-doped polypyrrole can completely keep its conducting state (doped state) at a reasonably negative potential (eg -0.8 V vs. sce) in acetonitrile solutions.
