Abstract: The amperometric ammonia determination by use of a polyaniline-modified screen printed Pt-C electrode at 0.3 V (versus Ag/AgCl on the strip) is shown. The electrochemical pulse polarization method is used for the modification. The effects of basic electrode material, applied potential, pH of buffer solution and possible interferences of other ions were studied. The polyaniline-modified Pt-C electrode measures (NH4)(2)SO4 with a detection limit of 5 µM, a linear range up to 1 mM and a sensitivity of 40±20 µA cm-2 mM-1. A new generation of enzyme sensors arises from the immobilization of ammonia-forming enzymes in a poly(carbamoyl)sulphonate hydrogel matrix on the working electrode as it is shown for urease to detect urea.

Abstract: A FIA system was described for studying the permeation, selectivity and dynamic properties of polymer films deposited on a glassy C disc electrode. The FIA system was equipped with a 500 µL injection loop and a thin-layer amperometric detector fitted with two glassy C electrodes (3 mm diameter), a Ag/AgCl (3 M NaCl) reference electrode and a steel auxiliary electrode. One of the glassy C electrodes was coated a polymer film, e.g., cellulose acetate, Nafion, polypyrrole, polyaniline or polyvinylpyridine. Several different test substances were injected into a 0.1 M phosphate buffer carrier stream of pH 7.4 and the responses obtained from the coated and uncoated working electrodes were compared. The advantages of the flow injection manifold are discussed; equations are derived to support the discussion.

Abstract: A vitreous C electrode (0.125 cm2 area) was coated with a polyaniline (PANI) film by galvanostatic polymerization from a solution containing 85 mM aniline in 0.1 M H2SO4 by cycling the potential between -0.1 and 1.1 V (vs. SCE) for five cycles at 50 mV/s. The coated electrode was immersed in 50 mM CuCl2 in 0.1 M H2SO4 for 5 min and then a potential of -0.3 V was applied for 3 min. The Cu-PANI sensor was evaluated for determining amino-acids and polyhydric compounds. Molar response factors for carbohydrates and amino-acids were measured using a FIA system and 0.1 M NaOH as the carrier stream (1 ml/min). A potential of 0.55 V vs. Ag/AgCl was applied to the sensor. A Carbopac PA 1 anion-exchange column (25 cm x 4 mm i.d.) was coupled to the FIA system to analyze carbohydrates and amino-acids. Xylitol, sorbitol, glucosamine, glucose, lactose and sucrose were separated using 0.15 M NaOH as the mobile phase (0.6 ml/min) and the detection limits were 2-6 pmol. Alanine, glycine, lysine methionine and glutamine were separated with 0.1 M NaOH as the mobile phase (0.5 ml/min) and the detection limits were 5-15 pmol. The linear dynamic range was three-four orders of magnitude above the detection limits. The electrode was stable for >=3 h in flowing streams.

Abstract: The electrode was prepared by immersing a polished Pt electrode in stirred 1.0 M H2SO4 containing 0.1 M aniline and scanning three complete cycles between -0.2 and +1.1 V vs. a Ag - AgCl reference electrode at 20 mV s-1. Cyclic voltammetry (details given) in 0.2 M Na acetate buffer (pH 6.0) containing 0.1 M ClO4- or flow injection analysis of the same medium or one containing 0.2 M glycine, with detection at 0.2 or 0.5 V, respectively, gave best results for NO3-, Cl-, SO42-, Br-, NO2- and ClO4-, e.g., the calibration graph for flow injection analysis of NO3- was rectilinear over three orders of magnitude, and the detection limit was ~0.1 ppm with use of the glycine mobile phase.

Abstract: Platinum electrode modified with polyaniline by electropolymerization exhibits amperometric sensitivity to nonprotonated ammonia in aqueous solutions in the anodic range of potentials. Sensitivity of response depends mostly on the kind of doping anions used and the polarization potential applied during measurements. This detection can be utilized for design of amperometric biosensors for urea.

Abstract: Electrochemical communication between the redox active centre of the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (E.C.1.11.1.7), HRP, and the conducting polymer, poly(aniline), is shown to be possible and efficient:at pH 5. The interaction between HRP and the poly(aniline) film was studied employing flow injection analysis. Tbe:modified electrodes employed consisted of two carbon band electrodes (ca. 10 µm wide, 4.5 mm long:separated by a 20 µm gap) coated with an anodically grown:film of poly(aniline). HRP was deposited on top of the poly(aniline) film in one of two ways. In the first HRP was immobilized onto the poly(aniline) film in an insulating poly(1,2-diaminobenzene) polymer grown electrochemically on top of the poly(aniline) film. In the second, HRP was absorbed on to the surface of a poly(aniline) modified electrode. The effect of the potential of the poly(aniline) film and 'phenazine' concentration within the film on the efficiency of interaction between the redox centre of HRP and the conducting polymer film are reported.
