Facile fabrication of screen-printed MoS₂ electrodes for electrochemical sensing of dopamine.

ABSTRACT: Molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) screen-printed working electrodes were developed for dopamine (DA) electrochemical sensing. MoS₂ working electrodes were prepared from high viscosity screen-printable inks containing various concentrations and sizes of MoS₂ particles and ethylcellulose binder. Rheological properties of MoS₂ inks and their suitability for screen-printing were analyzed by viscosity curve, screen-printing simulation and oscillatory modulus. MoS₂ inks were screen-printed onto conductive FTO (Fluorine-doped Tin Oxide) substrates. Optical microscopy and scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDX) analysis were used to characterize the homogeneity, topography and thickness of the screen-printed MoS₂ electrodes. The electrochemical performance was assessed through differential pulse voltammetry. Results showed an extensive linear detection of dopamine from 1 µM to 300 µM (R² = 0.996, sensitivity of 5.00 × 10^-8 A μM^-1), with the best limit of detection being 246 nM. This work demonstrated the possibility of simple, low-cost and rapid preparation of high viscosity MoS₂ ink and their use to produce screen-printed FTO/MoS₂ electrodes for dopamine detection.

Microfluidic Device Directly Fabricated on Screen-Printed Electrodes for Ultrasensitive Electrochemical Sensing of PSA.

Project description:How to fabricate scale low-cost microfluidic device for detection of biomarkers owns a great requirement. Herein, it is for the first time reported that a new microfluidic device based on bonding polydimethylsiloxane microfluidic channels onto the substrate of a screen-printed electrode with coating glass solution was fabricated for electrochemical sensing of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). Compared to traditional microfabrication processes, this method is simple, fast, low cost, and also suitable for mass production. The prepared screen-printed electrode-based microfluidic device (CASPE-MFD) was used for the detection of the PSA in human serum. The prepared CASPE-MFD had a detection limit of 0.84?pg/mL (25.8 fM) and a good linearity with PSA concentration ranging from 0.001 to 10?ng/mL, which showed a great promise platform toward the development of miniaturized, low-cost electrochemical microfluidic device for use in human health, environmental monitoring, and other applications.

Electrochemical Properties of Screen-Printed Carbon Nano-Onion Electrodes.

Project description:The properties of carbon nano-onions (CNOs) make them attractive electrode materials/additives for the development of low-cost, simple to use and highly sensitive Screen Printed Electrodes (SPEs). Here, we report the development of the first CNO-based ink for the fabrication of low-cost and disposable electrodes, leading to high-performance sensors. Achieving a true dispersion of CNOs is intrinsically challenging and a key aspect of the ink formulation. The screen-printing ink formulation is achieved by carefully selecting and optimising the conductive materials (graphite (GRT) and CNOs), the polymer binder, the organic solvent and the plasticiser. Our CNO/GRT-based screen-printed electrodes consist of an interconnected network of conducting carbon particles with a uniform distribution. Electrochemical studies show a heterogeneous electron transfer rate constant of 1.3 ± 0.7 × 10-3 cm·s-1 and a higher current density than the ferrocene/ferrocenium coupled to a commercial graphite SPEs. In addition, the CNO/GRT SPE can detect dopamine in the concentration range of 10.0-99.9 µM with a limit of detection of 0.92 µM (N = 3). They exhibit a higher analytical sensitivity than the commercial graphite-based SPE, with a 4-fold improvement observed. These results open up the possibility of using high-performing CNO-based SPEs for electrochemical applications including sensors, battery electrodes and electrocatalysis.

Determination of the Electrochemical Area of Screen-Printed Electrochemical Sensing Platforms.

Project description:Screen-printed electrochemical sensing platforms, due to their scales of economy and high reproducibility, can provide a useful approach to translate laboratory-based electrochemistry into the field. An important factor when utilising screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) is the determination of their real electrochemical surface area, which allows for the benchmarking of these SPEs and is an important parameter in quality control. In this paper, we consider the use of cyclic voltammetry and chronocoulometry to allow for the determination of the real electrochemical area of screen-printed electrochemical sensing platforms, highlighting to experimentalists the various parameters that need to be diligently considered and controlled in order to obtain useful measurements of the real electroactive area.

Electrochemical (Bio)Sensors for Pesticides Detection Using Screen-Printed Electrodes.

Project description:Pesticides are among the most important contaminants in food, leading to important global health problems. While conventional techniques such as high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and mass spectrometry (MS) have traditionally been utilized for the detection of such food contaminants, they are relatively expensive, time-consuming and labor intensive, limiting their use for point-of-care (POC) applications. Electrochemical (bio)sensors are emerging devices meeting such expectations, since they represent reliable, simple, cheap, portable, selective and easy to use analytical tools that can be used outside the laboratories by non-specialized personnel. Screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) stand out from the variety of transducers used in electrochemical (bio)sensing because of their small size, high integration, low cost and ability to measure in few microliters of sample. In this context, in this review article, we summarize and discuss about the use of SPEs as analytical tools in the development of (bio)sensors for pesticides of interest for food control. Finally, aspects related to the analytical performance of the developed (bio)sensors together with prospects for future improvements are discussed.

Graphene Oxide Bulk-Modified Screen-Printed Electrodes Provide Beneficial Electroanalytical Sensing Capabilities.

Project description:We demonstrate a facile methodology for the mass production of graphene oxide (GO) bulk-modified screen-printed electrodes (GO-SPEs) that are economical, highly reproducible and provide analytically useful outputs. Through fabricating GO-SPEs with varying percentage mass incorporations (2.5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%) of GO, an electrocatalytic effect towards the chosen electroanalytical probes is observed, which increases with greater GO incorporated compared to bare/graphite SPEs. The optimum mass ratio of 10% GO to 90% carbon ink produces an electroanalytical signal towards dopamine (DA) and uric acid (UA) which is ca. ×10 greater in magnitude than that achievable at a bare/unmodified graphite SPE. Furthermore, 10% GO-SPEs exhibit a competitively low limit of detection (3?) towards DA at ca. 81 nM, which is superior to that of a bare/unmodified graphite SPE at ca. 780 nM. The improved analytical response is attributed to the large number of oxygenated species inhabiting the edge and defect sites of the GO nanosheets, which are able to exhibit electrocatalytic responses towards inner-sphere electrochemical analytes. Our reported methodology is simple, scalable, and cost effective for the fabrication of GO-SPEs that display highly competitive LODs and are of significant interest for use in commercial and medicinal applications.

Fabrication of GQD-Electrodeposited Screen-Printed Carbon Electrodes for the Detection of the CRP Biomarker.

Project description:The traditional three-electrode electrochemical system used in the development of biosensors for detecting various biomarkers of interest necessitates the use of bulk electrodes, which precludes the deployment of handheld electrochemical devices in clinical applications. Affordable screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) modified with functional interfaces are being developed to enhance the sensitivity of a compact sensing system as a whole. In this work, SPCEs were fabricated on an overhead projection (OHP) sheet in three different active areas of 2 × 2, 3 × 3, and 4 × 4 mm2 using a screen printing technique, and then ∼2 nm sized graphene quantum dots (GQDs) were electrodeposited over the SPCE surface to add functionality for the detection of ultralow levels of one of the cardiac biomarkers, C-reactive protein (CRP). The proposed mediator-dependent voltammetric biosensor exhibited good sensitivity, a low detection limit, and a linear range of 2.45 μA ng-1 mL-1 cm-2, 0.036 ng mL-1, and 0.5-10 ng mL-1, respectively. The fabricated SPCE/GQDs/anti-CRP biosensor could rapidly detect CRP in less than 25 s. The intra- and interassays were performed with five sensor strips, which showed a minimum standard deviation of 1.85 and 2.8%, respectively. The SPCE/GQDs/anti-CRP electrode was used to detect CRP concentrations in a ringer lactate solution. Thus, the developed biosensor has all of the characteristics such as rapidity, inexpensive disposable electrodes, miniaturization, and a lower detection limit needed to evolve as a point-of-care (PoC) application.

Fabrication, Potentiometric Characterization, and Application of Screen-Printed RuO2 pH Electrodes for Water Quality Testing.

Project description:Screen-printed sensing electrodes attract much attention for water pollution monitoring due to their small size, physical and chemical durability, and low cost. This paper presents the fabrication and broad potentiometric characterization of RuO2 pH sensing electrodes deposited by screen printing on alumina substrates and sintered in the 800-900 °C temperature range. All the fabricated electrodes showed close to Nernstian sensitivity, good linearity, fast response, small drift, low hysteresis, and low cross-sensitivity toward various interfering cations and anions. Furthermore, decreasing the sintering temperature led to better adhesion of the RuO2 layer and a negligible response to interfering ions. The measurements in real-life samples from different water sources showed that the fabricated electrodes are on par with conventional glass electrodes with a maximum deviation of 0.11 pH units, thus indicating their potential for application in water quality monitoring.

Fabrication of CeO2/GCE for Electrochemical Sensing of Hydroquinone.

Project description:Hydroquinone is a widely used derivative of phenol which has a negative influence on human beings and the environment. The determination of the accurate amount of hydroquinone is of great importance. Recently, the fabrication of an electrochemical sensing device has received enormous attention. In this study, we reported on the facile synthesis of cerium dioxide (CeO2) nanoparticles (NPs). The CeO2 NPs were synthesized using cerium nitrate hexahydrate as a precursor. For determining the physicochemical properties of synthesized CeO2 NPs, various advanced techniques, viz., powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX), and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), were studied. Further, these synthesized CeO2 NPs were used for the modification of a glassy carbon electrode (CeO2/GCE), which was utilized for the sensing of hydroquinone (HQ). A decent detection limit of 0.9 µM with a sensitivity of 0.41 µA/µM cm2 was exhibited by the modified electrode (CeO2/GCE). The CeO2/GCE also exhibited good stability, selectivity, and repeatability towards the determination of HQ.

Electrochemical Determination of Hydroxyurea in a Complex Biological Matrix Using MoS2-Modified Electrodes and Chemometrics.

Project description:Hydroxyurea, an oral medication with important clinical benefits in the treatment of sickle cell anemia, can be accurately determined in plasma with a transition metal dichalcogenide-based electrochemical sensor. We used a two-dimensional molybdenum sulfide material (MoS2) selectively electrodeposited on a polycrystalline gold electrode via tailored waveform polarization in the gold electrical double layer formation region. The electro-activity of the modified electrode depends on the electrical waveform parameters used to electro-deposit MoS2. The concomitant oxidation of the MoS2 material during its electrodeposition allows for the tuning of the sensor's specificity. Chemometrics, utilizing mathematical procedures such as principal component analysis and multivariable partial least square regression, were used to process the electrochemical data generated at the bare and the modified electrodes, thus allowing the hydroxyurea concentrations to be predicted in human plasma. A limit-of-detection of 22 nM and a sensitivity of 37 nA cm-2 µM-1 were found to be suitable for pharmaceutical and clinical applications.

Organic Electrochemical Transistor with MoS2 Nanosheets Modified Gate Electrode for Sensitive Glucose Sensing.

Project description:An organic electrochemical transistor (OECT) with MoS2 nanosheets modified on the gate electrode was proposed for glucose sensing. MoS2 nanosheets, which had excellent electrocatalytic performance, a large specific surface area, and more active sites, were prepared by liquid phase ultrasonic exfoliation to modify the gate electrode of OECT, resulting in a large improvement in the sensitivity of the glucose sensor. The detection limit of the device modified with MoS2 nanosheets is down to 100 nM, which is 1~2 orders of magnitude better than that of the device without nanomaterial modification. This result manifests not only a sensitive and selective method for the detection of glucose based on OECT but also an extended application of MoS2 nanosheets for other biomolecule sensing with high sensitivity.
