Room Temperature Ionic Liquid Templated Meso-Macroporous Material By Self-Assembled Giant Gold Nanoparticles And Its Enhancement On The Direct Electrochemistry Of Cytochrome C, Pei Li, Dong-Ping Zhan, Yuan-Hua Shao
Journal of Electrochemistry
Room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) is used as a soft-template to organize a meso-macroporous material constructed by self-assembled giant gold nanoparticles which are capped by L-cysteine. First, L-cysteine capped gold nanoparticles can self-assembly to form nanowires and sub-micrometer spherical giant particles due to the static interaction and/or the condensation reaction between the carboxyl and amino groups at the outer terminal of the ligand. Second, the spherical assembled particles can form a quasi-solid gel when grinding with a hydrophobic RTIL, 1-octyl-3-metyllimidazolium hexafluorophosphate. Finally, when the composite gel is coated on a glassy carbon electrode and then polarized by using cyclic voltammetry …

On The Molecular Mechanism Of Electron Transfer Of Cytochrome C Modulated By Gold Nanoparticles In Nano-Sandwich Architecture, Shou-Rui Lin, Li-Xu Wang, Xiu-E Jiang, Li-Ping Guo
Journal of Electrochemistry
The effects of adsorbed gold nanoparticles on the surface-enhanced infrared absorption (SEIRA) difference spectra of redox-induced cytochrome (Cyt) c in AuNPs/Cyt c/Au sandwich architecture were monitored by SEIRA spectroscopy. The results indicated that the intensity of SEIRA difference spectrum for the vibration of the heme was significantly increased due to the adsorption of gold nanoparticles on the Cyt c. This was induced by the electron transfer between the heme and the gold nanoparticles, which also promoted electron transfer of adsorbed protein. This study suggested a new technique for optimizing the electrochemical property of adsorbed protein.

Temperature Effects On The Electron-Transfer Reactions Of Fe(Cn)63-/4- And Cytochrome C, Jing Tang, Lin Du, Xiao-Jian Xiao, Ning Zhang
Journal of Electrochemistry
Cyclic voltammetric and chronoamperometric techniques were employed to study the temperature effects on the electrochemical reaction of Fe(CN)63-/4- by self-made thermostatic water bath electrochemical cell. The diffusion coefficient D and the formal heterogeneous electron-transfer rate constant k0 were calculated at different temperatures from 25 °C to 75 °C. In the Fe(CN)63-/4- system, the DO values of Fe(CN)63- were directly proportional to temperature, while DR of Fe(CN)64- inversely proportional to temperature. The values of k0 decreased with the increase of temperature due possibly to the electrode passivation resulted from the decomposition of Fe(CN)63-/4- to a Prussian blue like film. Since the …

Fabrication Of Polyvinyl Alcohol Arrays And The Direct Electrochemistry Of Adsorbed Cytochrome C, Yu-Hua Qin, Ruo-Kun Jia, Qing-Juan Wei, Li Ma, Xiao-Hui Guan, Nan Lv
Journal of Electrochemistry
Regular polyvinyl alcohol arrays were prepared with porous polystyrene films by a self-assembly method. Cyt c immobilized on PVA microlens arrays modified glassy carbon electrodes gave a pair of stable,well-defined and quasi-reversible cyclic voltammetric peaks at about 0.072 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) in 0.1 mol/L PBS buffer (pH = 6.89) solution. The effects of scan rate,pH and concentration of buffers on the electrochemical behaviors of Cyt c were studied in detail. The apparent heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant (k0) was evaluated to be 2.98×10-6 cm·s-1.

Journal of Electrochemistry
Cytochrome c(Cyto c) was immobilized on the surface of the single-wall carbon nanotube(SWNT) by using the method of adsorption.Infrared spectroscopy indicated that the Cyto c remained in its original structure and did not undergo structural change after its immobilization on the SWNT.The direct electrochemistry of cyto c,which was adsorbed on the surface of the SWNT,was studied by cyclic voltammetry.The voltammetric results demonstrated that the SWNT had promoting effects on the direct electron transfer of Cyto c and also indicated that the immobilized Cyto c retained its bioelectrocatalytic activity to the reduction of H_(2)O_(2).This modified electrode might be used in development …

Journal of Electrochemistry
In this paper, the direct electrochemical reaction of cytochrome c was sudied at the poly (ethylene oxide) film modified gold electrodes. It was found the PEO is a good promoter for the electrochemical reaction of cytochrome c, and the reversibility of reaction of cytochrome c was found to depend on the molecular weight of PEO and the morphology of the PEO films.

Studies Of Electrochemical Behaviors Of Cytochrome C On Pretreated Gold Electrodereceived 16 May, 1996, Jin Luo, Lingling Wu, Shaohua Huang, Zhonghua Lin
Journal of Electrochemistry
The quasi reversible responses of both adsorbed and bulk cytochrome c at the pretreated gold electrode are observed. The adsorption behaviors and reaction kinetics have been studied using in situ FTIR spectroscopy, UV/Vis reflection spectroscopy, voltammetry, AC impedance and potential step methods. The results show that the cytochrome c can irreversibly adsorb on the gold surface in a complete monolayer and the adsorbed layer can mediate the redox reaction of the cytochrome c in the solution in the absence of promoter.

Journal of Electrochemistry
The effects of pH, ligtlnd CN￣-,metallic ions,Hg￣(+2), Cd￣(+2) and Pb￣(2+) on electroactivity of cytochrome c have been studied with cyclic voltammetry and UV/Vis spectroseopy.In the phosphate buffer solution containing 5 mg/mL cytochrome c, cytochrome c is electroactive at a glod electrode with suitable pretreatment if the pH value is equal to 7.0, but it is electroinactive at the gold electrode if the pH value is equal to 2. 0 or 10.0. The existence of CN- ions in the solution would cause deactivation of cytochrome c in the bulk sulurion, and would not affect the electroactivity of cytochrome c adsorbed on …

Journal of Electrochemistry
The promoter effect of thiophene with only one-functional group on the directelectrochemical reaction of cytochrome c was compared with that of tetrahydrothiophene in this report.It was found that thiophene is a good promoter.But tetrahydrothiophene could not facilitate the directelectrochemistry of cytochrome c although this compound is very similar to thiophene in str uctureexcept for conjugated π bond.This demonstrated that the conjugated π bond in thiophene plays animportant role for the acceleration of the direct electrochemistry of cytochrome c.
