Electrochemical sensor for guanine using a self-assembled monolayer of 1,8,15,22-tetraaminophthalocyanatonickel(II) on glassy carbon electrode
摘要
This article describes the selective determination of guanine (G) using the self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of 1,8,15,22-tetraaminophthalocyanatonickel(II) (4伪-NiIITAPc) modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in 0.2 M acetate buffer solution (pH 4.0). The SAM of 4伪-NiIITAPc was formed on GCE by spontaneous adsorption of 1 mM 4伪-NiIITAPc in dimethylformamide (DMF). It shows two pairs of redox waves corresponding to NiIII/NiII and NiIIIPc-1/NiIIIPc鈭? in 0.2 M acetate buffer solution. The SAM modified electrode exhibits excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation of G by enhancing its oxidation current with 150 mV less positive potential shift in contrast to bare GCE. Furthermore, the SAM modified electrode selectively determines G in the presence of high concentration of adenine (A). In differential pulse voltammetry measurements, the oxidation current response of G was increased linearly in the concentration range of 10 to 100 渭M, and a detection limit was found to be 3 脳 10鈭? M (signal/noise = 3).
