Electrochemical Behaviours Of Hemoglobin-Ddab-Modified Powder Microelectrode And The Application Of The Powder Microelectrode In Determination Of Nitric Oxide, Zhi-Mou Guo, Huan Liu, Jian Chen, Wen-Ting Zhang

Journal of Electrochemistry

The electrochemical behaviours of DDAB-Hb-PME were studied in this paper. The (apparent) surface concentration of Hb was enhanced greatly by using the powder microelectrode (technique). NO reacts with Hb and absorbs on the surface of the modified carbon powder. Therefore, the output of the electrode was enhanced greatly by employing PME with higher reaction surface (area). The sensitivity of DDAB-Hb-PME is 3.1 mA/μmol·L~(-1)·cm~(2), which is much larger than the values obtained with the traditional electrodes. The detection limit is 9 nmol·L~(-1) and the linear response range is 9~100 nmol·L~(-1).

The Electrochemical Behavior And Determination Of Gsh At The Powder Microelectrode, Jian Chen, Zhong-Yu He, Chuansin Cha, Huan Liu

Journal of Electrochemistry

In this paper, the electrochemical behavior of GSH at the surface of platinum(Pt) electrode, glass carbon(GC) electrode and acetylene black packed powder microelectrode (AB-PME) was studied. It was found that the electrochemical oxidations of GSH at both Pt and GC electrode were highly irreversible. No current peak or current plateau could be observed from the CV curves. The direct electro-oxidation of GSH at carbon surface was achieved by using the PME technique.In this case, the apparent reversibility of GSH oxidation was enhanced significatly .The overpotential of GSH oxidation was reduced to 0.5 V at the surface of AB-PME compared with …
