This study investigates the in-situ implementation of bio-regenerated iron mineral catalyst to remove explosive compounds in ground water at a military shooting range in operation. A bio-regenerated iron mineral catalyst was synthesized using lepidocrocite (iron-bearing soil mineral), iron-reducing bacteria Shewanella putrefaciens CN32, and electron mediator (riboflavin) in the culture medium. This catalyst was then injected periodically in the ground to build a redox active zone acting like permeable reactive barrier through injection wells constructed at a live fire military shooting range. Ground water and core soils were sampled periodically for analysis of explosive compounds, mainly RDX and its metabolites, along with toxicity analysis and REDOX potential measurement. Results suggested that a redox active zone was formed in the subsurface in which contaminated ground water flows through. Concentration of RDX as well as toxicity (% inhibition) of ground water decreased in the downstream compared to those in the upstream while concentration of RDX reduction products increased in the downstream.

We fabricated self-assembled monolayers(SAMs) onto quartz crystal microbalance(QCM) using viologen, which has been widely used as electron acceptor and electron transfer mediator. We determined the time dependence to resonant frequency shift during self-assembly process and observed the morphology of self-assembled mono layers by STM and investigated the electrochemical behavior of SAMs by cyclic voltammetry. Electrochemical deposition of viologen was investigated using electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance(EQCM). The redox reactions of viologen were highly reversible and the EQCM has been employed to monitor the electrochemically induced adsorption of SAMs during the redox reactions.

본 연구에서는 광에너지를 화학적인 에너지로 변환할 때, 디바이스의 전하전달 매개를 위한 electron transfer mediator로서 널리 이용되는 Viologen이 자기조립화된 수정진동자률 전기화학법의 하나인 순환전압전류법(Cyclic Voltammetry)을 이용하여 산화 환원 반응 (redox reaction) 특성과 주사속도와 피크전류와의 상관관계를 분석하였다. 먼저 수정진동자를 친수 처리한 후, 메탄올 용액과 아세토니트릴 용액을 섞은 용매에 Viologen 분자를 자기조립 (self-assembly)하여, 전해질 용액의 농도 변화에 따른 산화 환원반응 특성과 피크전류의 값을 측정하였다 주사 속도를 2 배씩 증가하여 피크전류와의 상관관계를 조사한 결과, 선형적인 증가를 보였으며, 이를 통해 가역적인 반응(reversible reaction)이 일어났음을 확인할 수 있었다. 또한, 산화 환원 반응과 동시에 측정된 수정진동자의 공진 주파수(resonant frequency) 변화로부터 전하이동(charge transfer) 특성에 의해 반응에 참가한 이온의 질량을 알 수 있었다.

This tutorial review provides a general account of the electrochemical behavior of quinones and their various applications. Quinone electrochemistry has been investigated for a long time due to its complexity. A simple point of view is developed that considers the relative stability of the reduced quinone species and the values of the first and second reduction potentials. The 9-membered square scheme in buffered aqueous solutions is explained and semiquinone radical stability is discussed in this context. Quinone redox reaction has also been employed in various studies. Diverse examples are presented under three broad categories defined by the roles of quinone: molecular tool for physical chemistry, versatile electron mediator, and charge storage for energy conversion devices.

당, 알코올, 유기산 및 아미노산 등과 같은 다양한 유기물에 포함된 화학에너지를 전기에너지로 전환시키는 효소 연료전지의 성능은 anode 뿐만 아니라 cathode에도 큰 영향을 받는다. 본 연구의 목적은 laccase 기반의 고성능 cathode 전극을 개발하는데 있다. 효소, 전자전달체 및 탄소나노튜브로 구성된 효소 복합체를 제조하고 이를 전극 표면에 다층으로 부착하며 층수 및 탄소나노튜브의 첨가 유무가 전극 성능에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 전극 표면에 효소-전자전달체(Lac-(PVI-Os-dCl))의 층수가 증가할수록 전극에서 발생되는 환원 전류량이 증가하였다. 탄소나노튜브가 첨가된 효소-전자전달체 복합체 전극(Lac-SWCNTs-(PVI-Os-dCl))이 Lac-(PVI-Os-dCl) 전극에 비하여 1.7배 많은 환원 전류를 생성하였다. Lac-SWCNTs-(PVI-Os-dCl)과 Lac-(PVI-Os-dCl)의 비율을 변화시키며 적층한 전극들에서 2층의 Lac-(PVI-Os-dCl)과 2층의 Lac-SWCNTs-(PVI-Os-dCl)으로 구성된 전극이 가장 많은 양의 환원 전류(10.1±0.1 µA)를 생성하였다. 단일 층의 Lac-(PVI-Os-dCl)로 구성된 cathode를 사용하는 셀과 최적화된 cathode를 사용하는 셀의 최대 생산 전력밀도는 각각 0.46±0.05와 1.23±0.04 µW/cm²였다. 본 연구 결과는 전극 표면에 laccase, 전자전달체 및 탄소나노튜브로 구성된 복합체의 적층 최적화를 통해 cathode 및 이를 이용하는 효소 연료전지의 성능을 향상시킬 수 있음을 시사한다.

For the purpose of developing a direct label-free electrochemical detection system, we have systematically investigated the electrochemical signatures of each step in the preparation procedure, from a bare gold electrode to the hybridization of label-free complementary DNA, for the streptavidin-modified electrode. For the purpose of this investigation, we obtained the following pertinent data; cyclic voltammogram measurements, electrochemical impedance spectra and square wave voltammogram measurements, in $Fe(CN)_6^{3-}/Fe(CN)_6^{4-}$ solution (which was utilized as the electron transfer redox mediator). The oligonucleotide molecules on the streptavidin-modified electrodes exhibited intrinsic redox activity in the ferrocyanide-mediated electrochemical measurements. Furthermore, the investigation of electrochemical electron transfer, according to the sequence of oligonucleotide molecules, was also undertaken. This work demonstrates that direct label-free oligonucleotide electrical recognition, based on biofunctional streptavidin-modified gold electrodes, could lead to the development of a new biosensor protocol for the expansion of rapid, cost-effective detection systems.

Molecular self-assembled of surfactant viologen are of recent interest because they can from functional electrodes as well as micellar assemblies, which can be profitably utilized for display devices, photoelectrochemical studies and electrocatalysis as electron acceptor or electron mediator. Fromherz et al studied the self-assembly of thiol and disulfide derivatives of viologens bearing long n-alkyl chains on Au electrode surface. The electrochemical behavior of self-assembled viologen monolayer has been investigated with QCM, which has been known as nano-gram order mass detector. The self-assembly process of viologen was monitored using resonant frequency$({\Delta}F)$ and resonant resistance(R). The redox process of viologen was observed with resonant frequency $({\Delta}F)$.

A development of disposable strip-type galactose sensor for point-of-care testing (POCT) was studied, which was constructed using screen-printed carbon electrodes. Galactose levels were determined by the redox reaction of galactose oxidase in the presence of potassium ferricyanide as an electron transfer mediator in a small sample volume (i.e., less than 1 µL). The optimal performance of biosensor was systematically designated by varying applied potential, operating pH, mediator concentration, and amount of enzyme on the electrode. The sensor system was identified as a highly active for the galactose measurement in terms of the sensitivity (slope = 4.76 ± 0.05 nA/µM) with high sensor-to-sensor reproducibility, the linearity (R² = 0.9915 in galactose concentration range from 0 to 400 µM), and response time (t_95% = <17 s). A lower applied potential (i.e., 0.25 V vs. Ag/AgCl) allowed to minimize interference from readily oxidizable metabolites such as ascorbic acid, acetaminophen, uric acid, and acetoacetic acid. The proposed galactose sensor represents a promising system with advantage for use in POCT.

Multi-wall carbon nano-tube(MWCNT)를 이용해 screen printed carbon electrodes(SPCEs)을 제작하여 혈당센서의 선택성과 감도가 증가됨을 확인 할 수 있었다. 효소촉매반응을 위한 탄소전극으로의 전자이동의 매개체로 8족 금속 원소인 오스뮴을 중심금속으로 일차 아민을 포함하는 피리딘(pyridine) 리간드를 배위시켜 $[Os(dme-bpy)_2(4-aPy)Cl]^{+/2+}$를 합성하였다. 합성된 오스뮴 착물은 순환 전압전류법을 포함한 다양한 전기화학분석방법을 이용하여 전기적 성질을 조사하였다. 전기적 흡착방법을 이용하여 일차 아민을 갖는 착화합물을 전극위에 고정화 하였다. 오스뮴이 고정화된 MWCNT-SPCEs는 일반적인 carbon electrode보다 약 100배가량의 오스뮴이 흡착됨을 확인 할 수 있었다.
