Construction and Application of Flow Amperometric Biosensor Based on Enzymatic Reactor for Determination of Choline
Tvorynska, Sofiia ; Barek, J. ; Josypčuk, Bohdan
In this contribution, a novel fast, simple and stable biosensor with the enzymatic reactor based on choline oxidase (ChOx) was developed and applied for the determination of choline using flow injection analysis with amperometric detection. The preparation of the reactor is based on the covalent immobilization of ChOx with glutaraldehyde to mesoporous silica powder (SBA-15) previously covered by NH2-groups. The experimental parameters affecting the sensitivity and stability of the biosensor were optimized. The proposed biosensor with the newly developed ChOx-based reactor possesses good repeatability, reproducibility, long-term stability, and reusability. It was successfully applied for the determination of choline in commercial pharmaceuticals.
Electrochemical Enzymatic Biosensors for Determination of Catecholamines in Flow Systems
Josypčuk, Bohdan ; Barek, J. ; Josypčuk, Oksana
Several biosensors (BS) based on flow enzymatic mini-reactors containing a mesoporous silica powder covered by enzyme laccase or tyrosinase were used for determination of L-DOPA, dopamine, noradrenaline, and adrenaline. The silica powder of MCM-41 with covalently bonded laccase was found to be the best reactor filling for the detection of catecholamines. Relative current response of such BS was 100 % for dopamine, 32.1 % for L-DOPA, 26.2 % for noradrenaline, and 0.71 % for adrenaline. The practical applicability of Lac-MCM41 biosensor was successfully verified by the determination of dopamine and noradrenaline in medical solutions for infusions.
Voltammetry at Silica Gel-Modified Carbon Paste Electrode
Šestáková, Ivana ; Navrátil, Tomáš
Voltammetry using silica gel modified carbon paste electrode (SiO2-CPE) for oxidation of selected flavonoid showed better sensitivity and reproducibility than oxidation using glassy carbon or unmodified carbon paste electrode. Only SiO2-CPE is useful for study of cadmium complexation with cysteine containing ligand as phytochelatin or metallothionein. Voltammetry on boron doped diamond electrode showed only peak of sulfur compound oxidation, which decreased with the addition of cadmium ions.
Voltammetric Determination of Chili Peppers Pungency using Phospholipid Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode\n
Skopalová, J. ; Rajcová, A. ; Vokounová, D. ; Navrátil, Tomáš
The aim of this study was to develop a simple method for evaluation of the pungency in chili peppers with a glassy carbon electrode modified using phospholipid membrane prepared from asolectin. For these purposes cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) have been used. A few different methods have been tested: direct method, transfer method on unmodified and modified electrode, using standard addition method as well as calibration curve method. A statistically significant correlations with the results of the reference HPLC method have been found in case of voltammetric methods, especially in DPV with asolectin modified electrode.

Hromadová, Magdaléna ; Kolivoška, Viliam ; Šebera, Jakub ; Sebechlebská, Táňa ; Gasior, Jindřich ; Nováková Lachmanová, Štěpánka ; Mészáros, G. ; Lindner, M. ; Mayor, M. ; Valášek, M.
This work compares single molecule conductance measurements of selected organic systems containing identical oligophenylene molecular wires and different tripodal anchoring groups. Single molecule conductance G was obtained by a scanning tunneling microscopy break junction technique complemented by theoretical calculations based on the density functional theory and non-equilibrium Green’s function formalism. Two molecules were compared where the same oligophenylene wire is connected to one of the electrodes via a tripod substituted on each leg by a thiol group either in the meta or para position. By combined experimental and theoretical analysis it was possible to confirm that single molecule conductance in the metal-molecule-metal junction of both molecules corresponds to a fully extended molecular wire, which is attached to one of the electrodes by all three thiolate bonds of the tripod. Experimental results confirmed that G value of meta-connected molecules is lower than that of para, whereas junction formation probability was higher for meta functionalization.

Chronopotentiometry of Papain Modified by Ruthenium Complexes
Nováková Lachmanová, Štěpánka ; Pospíšil, Lubomír ; Talbi, B. ; Salmain, M. ; Hromadová, Magdaléna
Catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction is one of known effects observed during the electrochemical studies of proteins. Constant current chronopotentiometric stripping technique is suitable tool for the study of catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction due to the formation of peak H. This contribution compares the catalytic behaviour of nonmodified papain and its artificial derivatives prepared by the interaction of organometallic complexes of ruthenium with free sulfhydryl group of protein. The comparison of the chronopotentiometric behaviour of papain and its derivatives would help to better understand the catalytic hydrogen evolution reaction in these derivatives.
Electrochemical Investigation of Polylactic Acid/Carbon Black Composite Filament for the Manufacture of 3D Printed Electrodes
Sebechlebská, Táňa ; Vaněčková, Eva ; Shestivska, Violetta ; Kolivoška, Viliam
Fused deposition modeling 3D printing has recently attracted increasing attention as an inexpensive, fast, reliable, adaptable and environmentally friendly tool to fabricate electrodes and electrochemical cells from composites of thermoplastics and carbon nanostructures. In this work, we use electric conductance measurements and cyclic voltammetry employing Ru(acac)30/1- as an electroactive probe to demonstrate that commercial polylactic acid(PLA)/carbon black composite filaments may be readily used as functional working electrodes in aqueous electrolytes. We further devise a procedure that leads to an improvement of their electrochemical performance. Characteristics of composite filaments treated by the optimized procedure approach those of classical metallic electrodes.

Wantulok, J. ; Sokolová, Romana ; Nycz, J. E. ; Degano, I.
Derivatives of 1,10-phenanthroline (Phen) are well-known bident ligands which had a lot of interesting applications thanks to their coordination abilities. Selected 1,10-phenanthroline compounds were studied by electrochemical methods. Depending on their different substituents were observed several oxidation and reduction voltammetric peaks. The study involves also in situ spectroeletrochemistry, infrared spectroscopy and identification of products by HPLC-DAD and HPLC-ESI MS/MS.
