We report on the electrocatalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide at nanoporous gold (NPG) surfaces. Various NPG surfaces with different surface structure were prepared by changing the conditions of electrodeposition for Ag-Au layers such as the concentration ratios of $KAu(CN)_2$ over $KAg(CN)_2$ and deposition charges. The effects of different electrochemical conditions on the electrocatalysis of $H_2O_2$ reduction were investigated. The NPG surfaces exhibited sensitive amperometric responses for $H_2O_2$ reduction, from which calibration plots with higher sensitivity than a bare Au surface were obtained.

A microdialysis coupled flow injection amperometric biosensor was calibrated to measure the concentration of glucose using 7 standard samples from 10ml to 70ml of glucose solution. The output of the sensor increased linearly with an increase in the glucose concentration with an $R^2$ correlation of 0.99. The amperometric biosensor was then applied to measure the. glucose concentration of 2 commercial samples(Orange and Pineapple juice) and the results compared with HPLC. Around 12% error was observed in glucose concentration measurements of the samples analyzed. The sensor has potential in rapid measurement once the calibration is done. Potential for on-line sensing is also discussed.

In this study, pyrocatechol violet (Pcv) is proposed for the first time as an efficient electrocatalyst for oxidation of sulfide and flow injection analysis (FIA) of sulfide. A graphite pencil electrode (GPE) was modified with Pcv via immersion of the GPE into 0.01 M Pcv solution for 15 min. Cyclic voltammograms (CVs) demonstrated that Pcv/GPE exhibits a good electrocatalytic performance due to shift in the potential from +400 at bare GPE to +70 mV at Pcv/GPE and obtaining an enhancement in the peak current compared with the bare GPE. A linear range between 0.25 and 250 μM sulfide with a detection limit of 0.07 μM was obtained from the recorded current-time curves in Flow Injection Analysis (FIA) of sulfide. Sulfide in water samples was also successfully determined using the proposed FI amperometric methods.

A new disposable amperometric tri-enzyme biosensor for the detection of paracetamol has been developed. The paracetamol sensors developed uses horseradish peroxidase modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (HRP-SPCEs) coupled with immobilized enzymes, tyrosinase and aryl acylamidase, prepared using a poly (vinyl alcohol) bearing styrylpyridinium groups (PVA-SbQ) matrix. Optimization of the experimental parameters has been performed and the paracetamol biosensor showed detection limit for paracetamol is as low as $100{\mu}M$ and the sensitivity of the sensor is $1.46nA{\mu}M^{-1}cm^{-2}$.

A dipstick-type immunochemical biosensor for the detection of the organophosphorus insecticide fenthion was developed using a screen-printed electrode system as an amperometric transducer with polyclonal antibodies against fenthion as a bioreceptor. The assay of the biosensor involved competition between the pesticide in the sample and pesticide-glucose oxidase conjugate for binding to the antibody immobilized on the membrane. This was followed by measurement of the activity of the bound enzyme by the supply of the enzyme substrate (glucose) and amperometric determination of the enzyme reaction product ($H_2O_2$). The activity of the bound enzyme was inversely proportional to the concentration of pesticide. The optimized sensor system showed a linear response against the logarithm of the pesticide concentration ranging from $10^{-2}$ to $10^3\;{\mu}g/L$.

A microdialysis coupled flow injection amperometric $({\mu}FIA)$ biosensor was calibrated to measure the concentration of sucrose using 11 standard samples from 2 ml to 70 ml of sucrose solution. The output of the sensor increased linearly with an increase in the sucrose concentration with an $r^2$ correlation of 0.99. The amperometric biosensor was then applied to measure the sucrose concentration of 4 commercial samples (Orange and Pineapple juices, Pepsi, Sprite) and the results compared with those by HPLC. Around $20\~30\%$ error was observed in sucrose concentration measurements of the samples analyzed. The sensor has potential in rapid measurement once the calibration is done. Potential for on-line sensing is also discussed.

A superoxide dismutase (SOD)-based superoxide ion $(O_2^-)$ sensor was fabricated by immobilizing SOD on a self-assembled monolayer (SAM) of 3-mercaptopropionic acid (MPA) which was prepared on a gold electrode. The SAM of MPA was found to function as an effective promoter for the electrode reaction of SOD. The amperometric response to $(O_2^-)$ was monitored at 300mV and -100mV vs. Ag/ Agel in 5mM phosphate buffer solution containing $KO_2$. The sensor was proved to have a high sensitivity, selectivity and short response time (<5 s) and negligible interference.

A continuous potential pulse is applied to a silver-working electrode on a pulsed amperometric detector (PAD) for detection of free cyanide and sulfide. The moving phase is 0.1 M sodium hydroxide, 0.5 M sodium acetate and 5% (v/v) ethylenediamine mixture, and the flow rate is 0.7 mL/min. Optimized pulse conditions include a -200 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl reference electrode) detection potential(Ed) for 60 msec and 50 mV cleaning potential (Ec) for 120 msec. The silver working electrode surface is not poisoned by cyanide or sulfide, and the PAD maintains long-term stability without loss of sensitivity and reproducibility at these pulse conditions. The detection limit of cyanide and sulfide separated by ion chromatography using an anion exchange column is 0.1 ppm and 0.05 ppm, respectively.

An enzyme electrode for the amperometric measurement of urea was prepared by co-immobilizing L-glutamate dehydrogenase and urease onto an Immobilon-AV affinity membrane attached to a glassy carbon electrode. The reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide(NADH) was used as the electroactive species. The electrochemical oxidation of NADH was monitored at +1.0 volt vs. Ag/AgCl. The enzyme-immobilized electrode was linear over the range of 2.0 × 10-5 to 2 × 10-4 M. The response time of the electrode was approximately 3 min. and the optimum pH of the enzyme immobilized membrane was pH 7.4-7.6 (Dulbcco's buffer solution). It was stable for at least two weeks or 50 assays. There was no interference from other physiological species, except from high levels of ascorbic acid.
