Trace lead detection for cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square-wave (SW) stripping voltammetry was performed using mercury immobilized onto a carbon nanotube electrode (HNPE). Using the characteristics of mercury and the catalytic carbon nanotube structure, a modified technique, the $0.45{\mu}g/l$ detection limit of lead ion was attained. The developed method can be applied to pond water, fish tissue, plant tissue, and in vivo direct assay.

A disposable electrochemical immunosensor system has been developed for the detection of herbicide in aqueous samples. Disposable screen printed carbon electrodes(SPCE) were used as basic electrodes and an enzyme, horseradish peroxidase (HRP), and anti-herbicide antibodies was immobilised on to the working electrode of SPCE by using avidin-biotin coupling reactions. An herbicide-glucose oxidase conjugates have been used for the competitive immunoreaction with sample herbicides. The enzymatic reaction between the conjugated glucose oxidase and glucose added generates hydrogen peroxide, which was reduced by the peroxidase immobilised. The latter process caused an electrical current change, due to direct re-reduction of peroxidase by a direct electron transfer mechanism, which was measured to determine the herbicides in the sample. The optimal operational condition was found to be: $20\;{\mu}gl-1$ deglycosylated avidin loading to the working electrode and working potential +50 mV vs. Ag/AgCl. The total assay time was 15 min after sample addition. The detection limits for herbicides, atrazine and simazine, were found to be 3 ppb and 10 ppb, respectively.

This study presents a simple approach for the assembly of a free-standing conductive electronic nanofilm of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) suitable for enzymatic electrochemical biosensors. A large-scale SWNT electronic film was successfully produced by the dialysis of p-Terphenyl-4,4''-dithiol (TPDT)-treated SWNTs. Furthermore, Horseradish peroxidase (HRP) was immobilized on the TPDT-SWNT electronic film, and the enzymatic detection of hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂) was demonstrated without mediators. The detection of H₂O₂ in the negative potential range (-0.4 V vs. Ag/AgCl) was achieved by direct electron transfer of heme-based enzymes that were immobilized on the TPDT-SWNT electronic film. The SWNT-based biosensor exhibited a wide detection range of H₂O₂ from 10 µM to 10 mM. The HRP-doped SWNT electronic film achieved a high sensitivity of 342 ㎛A/mM·cm² and excellent selectivity against a variety of redox-active interfering substances, such as ascorbic acid, uric acid, and acetaminophen.

지구 온난화는 대기 중 온실가스 농도 증가에 기인하여 전 세계적으로 이상기후를 유발하고 생태계와 인류에게 부정적인 영향을 미치고 있다. 이에 대응하여 각국은 다양한 방법으로 온실가스 감축을 시도하고 있으며, 해안 생태계가 흡수하는 탄소인 블루카본(blue carbon)에 대한 관심도 증가하고 있다. 블루카본은 그린카본(green carbon) 대비 탄소흡수 속도가 최대 50배 빠른 것으로 알려져 있어 기후 변화 대응에 있어 중요한 역할을 한다. 특히, 세계 5대 갯벌 중 하나인 대한민국의 갯벌은 생물 종 다양성이 풍부하고 뛰어난 탄소흡수원으로 평가되고 있다. 블루카본 관련 기존 연구에서는 갯벌의 탄소 저장량 및 연간 탄소 흡수량에 초점을 맞추었으나 위성자료를 활용하여 직접 갯벌의 면적 변화를 탐지하고 이를 탄소 저장량과 연계한 사례는 부족하다. 이에 본 연구에서는 다중시기 고해상도 위성자료인 PlanetScope 및 RapidEye 자료에 Direct Difference Water Index를 적용하여 연구지역인 낙동강 하구 갯벌의 면적 및 변화를 2013년부터 2023년 사이의 6개 시기에 대해 장기적으로 분석하고 시기별 탄소 저장량을 산정하였다. 분석 결과 연구지역 내 갯벌 면적은 조위 기준이 상이한 2013년 시기를 제외하였을 때 최소 약 9.38 km² (2022년), 최대 약 9.89 km² (2021년)로 연간 최대 약 5.4%가 변화하였으며 탄소 저장량은 최소 약 30,230.0 Mg C, 최대 31,893.7 Mg C로 산정되었다.

By using ionic liquid 1-hexylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate ($HPPF_6$) based carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) as the substrate electrode, a $CoMoO_4$ nanorods and myoglobin (Mb) composite was casted on the surface of CILE with chitosan (CTS) as the film forming material to obtain the modified electrode (CTS/$CoMoO_4$-Mb/CILE). Spectroscopic results indicated that Mb retained its native structures without any conformational changes after mixed with $CoMoO_4$ nanorods and CTS. Electrochemical behaviors of Mb on the electrode were carefully investigated by cyclic voltammetry with a pair of well-defined redox peaks from the heme Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox center of Mb appeared, which indicated that direct electron transfer between Mb and CILE was realized. Electrochemical parameters such as the electron transfer number (n), charge transfer coefficient (${\alpha}$) and electron transfer rate constant ($k_s$) were estimated by cyclic voltammetry with the results as 1.09, 0.53 and 1.16 $s^{-1}$, respectively. The Mb modified electrode showed good electrocatalytic ability toward the reduction of trichloroacetic acid in the concentration range from 0.1 to 32.0 mmol $L^{-1}$ with the detection limit as 0.036 mmol $L^{-1}$ ($3{\sigma}$), and the reduction of $H_2O_2$ in the concentration range from 0.12 to 397.0 ${\mu}mol\;L^{-1}$ with the detection limit as 0.0426 ${\mu}mol\;L^{-1}$ ($3{\sigma}$).

본 연구에서 우리는 보론 도핑된 다이아몬드 나노물질을 이용하여 유연성 탄소 섬유 기반의 전극(CF-BDD 전극)을 개발하고, 이를 비효소적 글루코스 센서에 적용하여 전기화학적 특성을 확인하였다. 이 전극은 탄소 섬유 표면에 정전하 자기조립법을 이용하여 BDD 층을 증착하여 제작하였다. 이 전극 물질의 표면 구조는 주사전자 현미경(SEM)을 이용하여 분석하였으며, 전기화학적 특성 및 센싱 성능 분석은 시간대전류법(CA)와 순환전압 전류법(CV), 전기화학 임피던스(EIS)으로 실행하였다. 제작된 CF-BDD 전극은 산화-환원 화학종과 전극 계면 간의 effective direct electron transfer와 large effective surface area, high catalytic activity의 우수한 특성들을 보였다. 결과적으로, CF 센서와 비교에서 CF-BDD 센서는 더 넓은 선형 농도 범위(3.75~50 mM)와 더 빠른 감응 시간(3초 이내), 더 높은 감도(388.8 nA/mM) 등의 향상된 센싱 특성을 보였다. 따라서, 본 연구에서 개발된 전극 물질은 다양한 전기화학 센서 뿐 아니라, 웨어러블 센서 소재로도 활용 가능할 것으로 기대된다.

In this research, the enhancement of electron-transfer activity of hemoglobin (Hb) in dodecanoic acid film was investigated for the first time. This type of composite film was made on glassy carbon electrode by casting method. Cyclic voltammetric result of the modified electrode displays a well defined redox peaks which was attributed to the direct electrochemical response of Rb. Our results illustrate that Rb exchange electrons directly with electrode and exhibits the characteristics of peroxidase. When we apply this modified electrode as a biosensor, it gives excellent performances in the electrocatalytic reduction of hydrogen peroxide ($H_{2}O_{2}$). Through the optimal conditions, the proposed biosensor shows the linear range for H2O2 determination was from $1{\times}10^{-5}$ to $1.25{\times}10^{-4}mol/L$ with a detection limit of $1{\times}10^{-7}mol/L$. The biosensor retained more than 90% of the initial response after 14 days.

Optimum analytical conditions for cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry were determined using mercury-mixed carbon nanotube paste electrode (PE). The results approached the microgram working ranges of SW: 10.0-80.0 $ugL^{-1}$ and CV: 100-700 $ugL^{-1}$ Cd (II); working conditions of 300-Hz frequency, 100 mV amplitude, 1.6 V accumulation potential, 400 sec accumulation time, and 40 mV increment potential. First, analysis was performed through direct assay of cadmium ions deep into the fishs brain core and plant tissue in real time with a preconcentration time of 400 sec. The relative standard deviation of 10.0 $mgL^{-1}$ Cd (II) observed was 0.064 (n = 12) at optimum conditions. The low detection limit (S/N) was set at 0.6 $ugL^{-1}$ ($5.33{\times}10^{-9}$ M). The methods can be used in direct analysis in vivo or in real-time monitoring of plant tissue.

This paper describes an electrochemical immunosensor for simple, fast and quantitative detection of a urinary hippuric acid which is one of major biological indicator in toluene-exposed humans. The feature of this electrochemical system for immunoassay of hippuric acid is based on the direct conjugation of ferrocene to a hippuric acid. With the competition between the ferrocene-hippuric acid complex and hippuric acid for binding to the anti-hippuric acid monoclonal antibody coated onto gold nanoparticles, the electrical signals are turned out to be proportional to urinary hippuric acid in the range of 0.01-10 mg/mL, which is enough to be used for the point-of-care. The proposed electrochemical method could extend its applications to detect a wide range of different small molecules of antigens in the health care area.
