“…On the other hand, the electrochemical oxidation of microcrystalline Chl a, absorbing in the range 740-750 nm, was studied after electrodeposition from octane on ITO, with the result that the aggregation of chlorophylls does not substantially effect their oxidation potential [24,25].…”

“…Since Chl a acts as both oxidant and reductant during the conversion of light energy into chemical energy, it is also suitable for analysis using electrochemical methods. Research studies have been performed on the electrochemistry of Chl a at mercury, [7 -10] gold, [11] platinum, [12,13] and tin oxide [13,14] electrodes. However, few reports exist using electrochemical measurements for analysis of Chl a at solid carbon electrodes; these are limited to voltammetric studies at glassy carbon (GC) electrodes.…”

Direct cyclic voltammetric determination of Chlorophyll a (Chl a) at a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) resulted in a single, irreversible anodic oxidation peak at E p ¼ þ400 mV vs. Ag/AgCl. Electrochemical investigations revealed that Chl a was adsorbing onto the SPCE surface. This adsorption phenomenon allowed the development of a method for Chl a determination, based on medium exchange followed by adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV). The final protocol was optimised with ORDER REPRINTS respect to pH of accumulation/measurement buffer, accumulation time, and acetone content of accumulation buffer. Using this protocol, it was possible to determine Chl a in aqueous phosphate buffer over the concentration range 0.014-2.24 mM. This optimised protocol was applied to the determination of Chl a in faeces from dairy cows. The endogenous content of Chl a was calculated to be 15 mg g 21 of dried faecal matter. The mean recovery for the method was 104%, with an overall coefficient of variation of 18.4%. Based on these data, the detection limit for dried faecal matter was 300 mg in 10 mL of simulated teat wash water. This approach demonstrates that the electrochemical detection of Chl a is a potential means of monitoring faecal contamination in the dairy industry.

Random ensembles of femtolitre-volume droplets containing redox active, photosensitive compounds immobilised on an electrode substrate permit photoelectrochemical studies within femtometric environments. Two chemical systems are described; the first is the N,N,N',N'-tetrahexyl-para-phenylenediamine redox-catalysed photochemical debromination of the anaesthetic reagent halothane; the second is the photoinduced electron transfer from excited chlorophyll a to vitamin K1, which has possible potential in the development of solar cells based on photosynthesis.
