Investigation of thermal unfolding process of cyanic adduct of horseradish peroxidase by Fourier transform infrared and circular dichroism spectrometry

Detailed circular dichroism(CD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) studies have been carried out to monitor thermal unfolding of horseradish peroxidase isoenzyme C(HRP) inhibited by CN(HRP-CN). The results suggest that HRP-CN is quite different from native HRP with different spin states of Fe of heme and different coordinated states. Cyanide becomes the sixth ligand of Fe(I) of heme and the hydrogen-binding network is destroyed partly at the same time, which cause the drastic decrease of thermal stability of HRP. The FTIR and Soret-CD spectra analysis demonstrate that during the heating process there is an intermediate state(I') which has both partly destroyed secondary and tertiary structures of native HRP, then it is the appearance of protein aggregation state(A) after fully unfolding. The unfolding pathway thus can be shown as follows: I -->I'-->U -->A.

In-situ microscopic Fourier transform infrared spectroelectrochemistry of redox mechanism for electroactive species in polyelectrolyte

Studies for the development of the in-situ microscopic FTIR spectroelectrochemistry (MFTIRS) have been carried out in polyethylene glycol(PEG) polyelectrolyte, Redox reaction mechanisms of various electroactive substances involving inorganic salt, organic compound and inorganic polymeric particles have been studied.

In-situ Fourier transform infrared spectroelectrochemistry as a probe of the glassy carbon electrode chemically modified by nickel (II)-cyanometallates

A new nickel (II)-cyanometallates modified on glassy carbon electrode was prepared by a new method and studied by cyclic voltammetry and in situ Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroelectrochemistry. It was found that the NiHCF film existed in two forms: Ni2Fe(II)-(CN)(6) and M2NiFe(II)(CN)(6), Fe(CN)(3)(6-) codeposited in the NiHCF film existing in free cation or bridged-bond state depended on the property of the cations in electrolyte: in NaCl and LiCl solution, it is in bridges-bonded, but in HCl and KCl, it is free.

Influence of cation concentration on 7,7,8,8-tetracyanoquinodimethane in polyelectrolyte by using in-situ microscopic Fourier transform infrared spectroelectrochemistry

The ion pair between the dianion of 7,7,8, 8-tetracyanoquinodimethane(TCNQ) and Li+ were investigated by in - situ microscopic Fourier transform infrared( FTIR) spectroelectrochemical technique. The effect of ion pair increases with increasing the concentration of cation. We observed a new band at 2130 cm(-1).

Cyclic voltammetric and in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroelectrochemical studies on the reaction of Cd2+ on the plussian blue/platinum modified electrode

Plussian blue(PB)/Pt modified electrode Tvas studied in the CdCl2 electrolyte solution by cyclic voltammetry and in situ FTIR spectroelectrochemistry. It was found that Cadmium ion was capable of substituting the high-spin iron of PB in an electrochemically induced substitution reaction and hexacyanoferrate cadmium (CdHCF) can be formed in the PB film. But PB and CdHCF in mixture film showed their own electrochemistry properties without serious effect on each other. The mechanism of substitution reaction has been given in detail.

ELECTROCHEMISTRY AND IN-SITU IR MICROSPECTROELECTROCHEMISTRY IN A VERSATILE THIN-LAYER REFLECTION FOURIER-TRANSFORM IR MICROSPECTROELECTROCHEMICAL CELL

A simple, convenient and versatile thin layer reflection Fourier transform IR microspectroelectrochemical (FTIRMSEC) cell has been described and characterized. Electrochemistry and in situ FTIR microspectroscopy were studied by using the hexacyanoferrate redox couple in aqueous sulphate solution, indicating that this type of cell is characteristic of both micro- or ultramicroelectrode and thin layer spectroelectrochemistry. Furthermore, the application of this FTIRMSEC cell to IR for characterization of the products of electrochemical reactions was carried out for the oxidation of (mesotetraphenylporphinato)manganese(III) perchlorate in dichloromethane + tetrabutylammonium perchlorate solution. Finally, the advantages and problems of this type of cell compared with a conventional optically transparent thin layer FTIR spectroelectrochemical cell were discussed.
