Nanotube‐Boramidic Acid Derivative for Dopamine Sensing

Abstract

A new sensor, based on boramidic acid-bounded MWCNTs (Multi-walled carbon nanotubes), was synthesized in three simple steps. Modification of the sensor surface was accomplished using boric acid in which the boron atom is adjacent to the NH group. Characterization, electrochemical behaviors, and stability of newly modified nanosensor were completed using SEM (scanning electron microscope), TEM (Transmission electron microscope), CV (cyclic voltammetry), EIS (electron impedance), DTA (Differential thermal analysis), and XPS (X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy). SEM and TEM analysis were confirmed the modified surface of the nanosensor. The stability of the newly synthesized sensor was also designated that the initial weight loss occurred between 50-145°C was corre-sponded to the degradation of both ethylene diamine and boric acid. According to the EIS study, the Nyquist plot of the MWCNTs-NH-B (OH) 2 /GC electrode displayed a 0.435 kΩ Rct with a smaller semicircle than the bare GC (6.57 kΩ). The electrochemical behavior of dopamine was investigated using cyclic and square wave voltammetry (0.1 M phosphate buffer solution-pH 7.4). The diffusion-controlled process was determined when the oxidation of dopamine was studied. The detection limit of dopamine was found to be 5.1 nM. An actual sample study was done using the developed analytical method, and the detection of dopamine in urine was successfully performed. This study is the first example of boramidic acidmodified multi-walled carbon nanotubes

NH2-MIL-125(Ti)/Reduced Graphene Oxide Enhanced Electrochemical Detection of Fenitrothion in Agricultural Products

“…In addition, the linear equation between peak potential and pH was expressed as E p (V) = −0.0536 pH + 0.2845 ( R 2 = 0.9906). The slope’s absolute value was approximately equal to the universal theoretical value of 0.059 V/pH [ 39 ], showing that the oxidation of FT on NH 2 -MIL-125(Ti)/RGO/GCE was a double proton and electron process in Figure S2 , where the number of protons was equal to the number of electron transfers in the electrochemical oxidation reaction.…”

Electrochemical Determination of Anti‐Cancer Drug Dabrafenib with High Sensitivity Using Multi‐Walled Carbon Nano Tubes Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode

“…CNTs are highly preferred due to their structural, mechanical, electrical, and electrochemical properties [32,33] . Therefore, with these properties, carbon nanotubes exhibit significant surface enhancement effects compared to bare electrodes, and electrodes modified with nanomaterials are widely used [34] . Due to all these properties, it has been widely used to detect different analytes such as favipiravir, [35] paracetamol, [36] methamphetamine, [37] valrubicin, [38] valganciclovir, [39] fludarabine, [40] and sorafenib [41] with various CNT‐modified electrodes.…”
