Voltammetric Detection of Glucose-The Electrochemical Behavior of the Copper Oxide Materials with Well-Defined Facets.

ABSTRACT: Cu₂O nanomaterials with well-defined facets and uniform size were synthesized by a wet-chemical method. Regardless of the additive composition, powders crystallize mostly in cuprite form. To compare their electrochemical behavior, the obtained materials were deposited on carbon glassy electrodes. The response to glucose from the materials with different exposed facets was recorded with a delay at the anodic curve. The chronoamperometric analyses (AMP) exhibited a lower signal in contrast to the cyclic voltammetry data (CV), indicating that the number of active sites involved in glucose oxidation processes resulting from the structure of the material is insufficient. For samples with dominant (100) or (111) planes, a typical characteristic was observed, however, with an additional peak at the anodic curve. The location of the peaks is approximately the same and no significant differences from the AMP and CV analysis were observed. The sample enclosed by the (111) facets exhibited higher activity; however, as a result of the redox reaction with glucose molecules, the surface state is changing. Cu₂O materials enclosed by (100) planes exhibited optimal sensitivity as well as a large detective range. Samples with differential facet exposition present various current-potential profiles, as the effect of binder-particle interaction with Nafion.

Project description:Design, synthesis, and application of cyclodextrin (CD) containing thermoresponsive hydrogels fabricated from thiol-reactive telechelic polymers are reported. Hydrophilic polymers containing 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate and/or di(ethylene glycol)methylether methacrylate monomers as side chains and thiol-reactive groups at chain ends were synthesized. A series of hydrogels was fabricated using thiol-ene conjugation of these thiol-reactive polymers with multivalent thiol-containing CDs as crosslinkers. Clear and transparent hydrogels were obtained with good conversion (79-89%) by utilizing the "nucleophilic" and "radical" thiol-ene "click" reactions. Analysis of the amount of residual thiol groups in these hydrogels using Ellman's reagent suggested that gels with a moderately well-defined network structure were obtained. Hydrogels fabricated using different telechelic polymers were examined for their properties such as morphology, equilibrium water uptake, and rheological characteristics. Cytocompatibility of these hydrogels was ascertained by a cell viability assay that demonstrated low toxicity toward fibroblast cells. Thereafter, the CD-containing hydrogels were evaluated for the loading and controlled release of puerarin, an antiglaucoma drug. Utilization of thermoresponsive polymers as the matrix for these hydrogels allows use of temperature as a stimulus to modulate the drug release. A slower and more sustained drug release was observed at physiological temperatures compared to ambient conditions. The effect of temperature on the elasticity of the hydrogel was investigated rheologically to demonstrate that the collapse of the network structure occurs near physiological temperatures. The increased hydrophobicity and compactness of the gel matrix at higher temperatures results in a slower drug release. The strategy employed here demonstrates that tuning the matrix composition of hydrogels with well-defined network structures through appropriate choice of responsive copolymers allows design of materials with control of their physical properties and drug-release behavior.
