NiO Nanoparticles for Electrochemical Insulin Detection.

ABSTRACT: Diabetes mellitus represents one of the most widespread diseases in civilization nowadays. Since the costs for treating and diagnosing of diabetes represent several billions of dollars per year, a cheap, fast, and simple sensor for diabetes diagnosis is needed. Electrochemical insulin sensors can be considered as a novel approach for diabetes diagnosis. In this study, carbon electrode with electrodeposited NiO nanoparticles was selected as a suitable electrode material for insulin determination. The morphology and surface composition were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscopy, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). For a better understanding of insulin determination on NiO-modified electrodes, the mechanism of electrochemical reaction and the kinetic parameters were studied. They were calculated from both voltammetric and amperometric measurements. The modified carbon electrode displayed a wide linear range from 600 nM to 10 µM, a low limit of detection of 19.6 nM, and a high sensitivity of 7.06 µA/µM. The electrodes were stable for 30 cycles and were able to detect insulin even in bovine blood serum. Additionally, the temperature stability of this electrode and its storage conditions were studied with appropriate outcomes. The above results show the high promise of this electrode for detecting insulin in clinical samples.

Mn3O4/NiO Nanoparticles Decorated on Carbon Nanofibers as an Enzyme-Free Electrochemical Sensor for Glucose Detection.

Project description:Transition metal oxides have garnered a lot of attention in the field of electrocatalysis along with their unique crystal structure and excellent catalytic properties. In this study, carbon nanofibers (CNFs) decorated with Mn3O4/NiO nanoparticles were made using electrospinning and calcination. The conductive network constructed by CNFs not only facilitates electron transport, but also provides landing sites for nanoparticles, thus reducing nanoparticle aggregation and exposing more active sites. Additionally, the synergistic interaction between Mn3O4 and NiO improved electrocatalytic capacity for glucose oxidation. The Mn3O4/NiO/CNFs modified glassy carbon electrode shows satisfactory results in terms of linear range and anti-interference capability for glucose detection, suggesting that the constructed enzyme-free sensor has a promising application in clinical diagnosis.

Hydrothermal synthesis of NiO nanoparticles decorated hierarchical MnO2 nanowire for supercapacitor electrode with improved electrochemical performance.

Project description:In this work, MnO2/NiO nanocomposite electrode materials have been synthesized by a cost-effective hydrothermal method. The effect of the concentrations (0, 1, 3, 5, and 7 wt%) of NiO nanoparticles on the surface morphology, structural properties, and electrochemical performance of the nanocomposites was characterized by different characterization techniques. The scanning electron micrographs (SEM) reveal that the as-prepared NiO nanoparticles are well connected and stuck with the MnO2 nanowires. The transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis showed an increase in the interplanar spacing due to the incorporation of NiO nanoparticles. The different structural parameters of MnO2/NiO nanocomposites were also found to vary with the concentration of NiO. The MnO2/NiO nanocomposites provide an improved electrochemical performance together with a specific capacitance as high as 343 F/g at 1.25 A/g current density. The electrochemical spectroscopic analysis revealed a reduction in charge transfer resistance due to the introduction of NiO, indicating a rapid carrier transportation between the materials interface. The improved electrochemical performance of MnO2/NiO can be attributed to good interfacial interaction, a large interlayer distance, and low charge transfer resistance. The unique features of MnO2/NiO and the cost-effective hydrothermal method will open up a new route for the fabrication of a promising supercapacitor electrode.

Rapid electrochemical detection of single influenza viruses tagged with silver nanoparticles.

Project description:Using a state of the art nano-electrochemical technique, we show that a single virus 'tagged' with silver nanoparticles can be rapidly detected in real time at the single virus level. A solution containing a low concentration of influenza virus is exposed to silver nanoparticles which are adsorbed onto the virus surface, as revealed by UV-Vis spectroscopy and transmission electron microscopy. With sufficient potential applied to a carbon electrode introduced into the solution, current spikes are observed which correspond to the oxidation of the nanoparticles decorating the virus. The frequency of the current spikes and their magnitude are linearly proportional to the virus concentration and to the surface coverage of the nanoparticles, respectively. Differences observed from single bacterium detection are discussed and a comparison with existing detection methods is made, with emphasis on the favourability of the proposed technique towards the realization of point of care test devices.

Morphological Effects of Au Nanoparticles on Electrochemical Sensing Platforms for Nitrite Detection.

Project description:Au nanoparticles were synthesized in a soft template of pseudo-polyanions composed of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) by the in situ reduction of chloroauric acid (HAuCl4) with PVP. The particle sizes and morphologies of the Au nanoparticles were regulated with concentrations of PVP or SDS at room temperature. Distinguished from the Au nanoparticles with various shapes, Au nanoflowers (AuNFs) with rich protrusion on the surface were obtained at the low final concentration of SDS and PVP. The typical AuNF synthesized in the PVP (50 g·L-1)-SDS (5 mmol·L-1)-HAuCl4 (0.25 mmol·L-1) solution exhibited a face-centered cubic structure dominated by a {111} crystal plane with an average equivalent particle size of 197 nm and an average protrusion height of 19 nm. Au nanoparticles with four different shapes, nanodendritic, nanoflower, 2D nanoflower, and nanoplate, were synthesized and used to modify the bare glassy carbon electrode (GCE) to obtain Au/GCEs, which were assigned as AuND/GCE, AuNF/GCE, 2D-AuNF/GCE, and AuNP/GCE, respectively. Electrochemical sensing platforms for nitrite detection were constructed by these Au/GCEs, which presented different detection sensitivity for nitrites. The results of cyclic voltammetry (CV) demonstrated that the AuNF/GCE exhibited the best detection sensitivity for nitrites, and the surface area of the AuNF/GCE was 1.838 times of the bare GCE, providing a linear c(NO2-) detection range of 0.01-5.00 µmol·L-1 with a limit of detection of 0.01 µmol·L-1. In addition, the AuNF/GCE exhibited good reproducibility, stability, and high anti-interference, providing potential for application in electrochemical sensing platforms.

Unveiling hole trapping and surface dynamics of NiO nanoparticles.

Project description:The research effort in mesoporous p-type semiconductors is increasing due to their potential application in photoelectrochemical energy conversion devices. In this paper an electron-hole pair is created by band-gap excitation of NiO nanoparticles and the dynamics of the electron and the hole is followed until their recombination. By spectroscopic characterization it was found that surface Ni3+ states work as traps for both electrons and holes. The trapped electron was assigned to a Ni2+ state and the trapped hole to a "Ni4+" state positioned close to the valence band edge. The recombination kinetics of these traps was studied and related with the concept of hole relaxation suggested before. The time scale of the hole relaxation was found to be in the order of tens of ns. Finally the spectroscopic evidence of this relaxation is presented in a sensitized film.

An Effective Label-Free Electrochemical Aptasensor Based on Gold Nanoparticles for Gluten Detection.

Project description:Nanomaterials can be used to modify electrodes and improve the conductivity and the performance of electrochemical sensors. Among various nanomaterials, gold-based nanostructures have been used as an anchoring platform for the functionalization of biosensor surfaces. One of the main advantages of using gold for the modification of electrodes is its great affinity for thiol-containing molecules, such as proteins, forming a strong Au-S bond. In this work, we present an impedimetric biosensor based on gold nanoparticles and a truncated aptamer for the quantification of gluten in hydrolyzed matrices such as beer and soy sauce. A good relationship between the Rct values and PWG-Gliadin concentration was found in the range between 0.1-1 mg L-1 of gliadin (corresponding to 0.2-2 mg L-1 of gluten) with a limit of detection of 0.05 mg L-1 of gliadin (corresponding to 0.1 mg L-1 of gluten). The label-free assay was also successfully applied for the determination of real food samples.

Physical Characterization and Cellular Toxicity Studies of Commercial NiO Nanoparticles.

Project description:Nickel oxide (NiO) nanoparticles from several manufacturers with different reported sizes and surface coatings were characterized prior to assessing their cellular toxicity. The physical characterization of these particles revealed that sizes often varied from those reported by the supplier, and that particles were heavily agglomerated when dispersed in water, resulting in a smaller surface area and larger hydrodynamic diameter upon dispersion. Cytotoxicity testing of these materials showed differences between samples; however, correlation of these differences with the physical properties of the materials was not conclusive. Generally, particles with higher surface area and smaller hydrodynamic diameter were more cytotoxic. While all samples produced an increase in reactive oxygen species (ROS), there was no correlation between the magnitude of the increase in ROS and the difference in cytotoxicity between different materials.

Design and synthesis of novel organometallic dyes for NiO sensitization and photo-electrochemical applications.

Project description:Two metallo-organic dyes were synthesized and used for NiO sensitization in view of their photoelectrochemical applications. The new dyes present an original ?-conjugated structure containing the [Ru(dppe)2] metal fragment with a highly delocalized allenylidene ligand on one side and a ?-alkynyl ligand bearing an electron-rich group, i.e. a thiophene or triphenylamine unit, and one or two anchoring functions on the other side. The optoelectronic, electrochemical and photoelectrochemical properties of the dyes were systematically investigated. A broad photoresponse was observed with the absorption maximum at 600 nm. The X-ray crystal structure of one precursor was obtained to elucidate the structural conformation of the organometallic complexes and theoretical calculations were performed in order to address the photophysical properties of the new dyes. These photosensitizers were further implemented in NiO-based photocathodes and tested as photocurrent generators under pertinent aqueous conditions in association with [Co(NH3)5Cl]Cl2 as an irreversible electron acceptor. The dye-sensitized photocathodes provided good photocurrent densities (40 to 60 ?A cm(-2)) at neutral pH in phosphate buffer and a high stability was observed for the two dyes.

Electrochemical and Photoelectrochemical Properties of Nickel Oxide (NiO) With Nanostructured Morphology for Photoconversion Applications.

Project description:The cost-effective production of chemicals in electrolytic cells and the conversion of the radiation energy into electrical energy in photoelectrochemical cells (PECs) require the use of electrodes with large surface area, which possess either electrocatalytic or photoelectrocatalytic properties. In this context nanostructured semiconductors are electrodic materials of great relevance because of the possibility of varying their photoelectrocatalytic properties in a controlled fashion via doping, dye-sensitization or modification of the conditions of deposition. Among semiconductors for electrolysers and PECs the class of the transition metal oxides (TMOs) with a particular focus on NiO interests for the chemical-physical inertness in ambient conditions and the intrinsic electroactivity in the solid state. The latter aspect implies the existence of capacitive properties in TMO and NiO electrodes which thus act as charge storage systems. After a comparative analysis of the (photo)electrochemical properties of nanostructured TMO electrodes in the configuration of thin film the use of NiO and analogs for the specific applications of water photoelectrolysis and, secondly, photoelectrochemical conversion of carbon dioxide will be discussed.

Integration of Ni/NiO nanoparticles and a microfluidic ELISA chip to generate a sensing platform for Streptococcus pneumoniae detection.

Project description:Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays (ELISAs) are tests that uses antibody recognition and enzyme catalytic activity to identify a substance, and they have been widely used as a diagnostic tool in the clinic. However, performing an ELISA requires various liquid handling steps and long binding times. To solve this problem, we developed a magnetic microfluidic ELISA system (MMF-ELISA). Integration with nickel magnetic nanoparticles can streamline the ELISA process in a fully automated manner for Streptococcus pneumoniae detection. First, we synthesized paramagnetic surface-oxidized nickel nanoparticles (Ni/NiO NPs) to carry protein G. Then, we assembled a SUM290 (UlaG)-specific antibody on protein G. Finally, we integrated the NPs on a microfluidics chip for S. pneumoniae detection. The chip contains three different layers to trap the solutions; the bottom layer SiO2 is patterned on hydrophobic polymers and integrated with the middle layer PDMS and the top layer PMMA. With Arduino and motor IC, we developed an automated platform for S. pneumoniae detection. Microfluidic ELISAs can reduce the manual handling and operation time. Furthermore, the developed system can be extended to multiple areas for ELISA-related assays. This economical, rapid and portable system may become a promising platform for sensing S. pneumoniae in clinical applications.
