چکیده

This paper reports a microchip with an integrated passive micromixer based on chaotic advection. The micromixer with staggered herringbone structures was used for luminol-peroxide chemiluminescence detection. The micromixer was examined to assess its suitability for chemiluminescence reaction. The relationship between the flow rate and the location of maximum chemiluminescence intensity was investigated. The light intensity was detected using an optical fiber attached along the mixing channel and a photon detector. A linear correlation between chemiluminescence intensity and the concentration of cobalt(ii) ions or hydrogen peroxide was observed. This microchip has a potential application in environmental monitoring for industries involved in heavy metals and in medical diagnostics.

Hydrogen peroxide assay by using enhanced chemiluminescence of the luminol-H202--horseradish peroxidase system: Comparative studies

p-Iodophenol, p-coumaric acid, phenol and aniline are enhancers of the luminol-H202-horseradish peroxidase chemiluminescence. These enhanced and unenhanced chemiluminescences were used to assay low concentrations of hydrogen peroxide. The curves of cherniluminescence intensity maxima against hydrogen peroxide concentration were fitted to third order polynomial regressions, which permit a very g...

Enhanced chemiluminescence of the luminol-hydrogen peroxide system by colloidal cupric oxide nanoparticles as peroxidase mimic.

As a peroxidase mimic, cupric oxide nanoparticles were found to enhance the chemiluminescence (CL) of luminol-H(2)O(2) system up to 400 folds. The CL spectra and radical scavengers were conducted to investigate the possible CL enhancement mechanism. It was suggested that the enhanced CL could be attributed to the peroxidase-like activity of CuO nanoparticles, which effectively catalyzed the dec...

Comparison between Amperometric and Chemiluminescence methods in detection and dosimetry of cobalt-60 gamma ray emission

Background: Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), produced by gamma ray irradiation to watery solution, was used as an analytical parameter for dosimetry of cobalt-60 (60Co) radiation. Materials and Methods: Detection of the produced H2O2 was carried out using two methods: an amperometric biosensor fabricated by immobilization of anthraquinone 2-carboxylic acid modified horseradish peroxidase on glassy car...

Enhancement in Chemiluminescence by Carbonate for Cobalt(II)-catalyzed Oxidation of Luminol with Hydrogen Peroxide

Chemiluminescence (CL) from the cobalt(II)-catalyzed oxidation of luminol with hydrogen peroxide was dramatically enhanced by the presence of carbonate. The CL signal increases by several orders of magnitude over a wide range of concentrations of Co(II), luminol, or hydrogen peroxide. A limit of detection of 10 M for Co(II) and luminol and 10 M for hydrogen peroxide can be achieved. The CL emis...

Application of 4-iodophenol-enhanced luminol chemiluminescence to direct detection of horseradish peroxidase encapsulated in liposomes.

4-Iodophenol was applied to an enhancer in the direct detection of horseradish peroxidase (HRP) encapsulated in liposomes by using luminol chemiluminescence (CL). Luminol, 4-iodophenol and hydrogen peroxide permeate into the inner phase of liposomes containing HRP, resulting in the progress of 4-iodophenol-enhanced luminol CL catalyzed by HRP in liposomes. The CL intensity observed in liposomes...
