Direct Electrochemical Regeneration of NADH on Au, Cu and Pt-Au Electrodes
نویسنده
چکیده
The regeneration of a reduced form of nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH) in a batch electrochemical reactor employing Au, Cu and Pt-Au electrodes was investigated. The yield of enzymatically active NADH regenerated was found to depend on the electrolysis potential and the electrode material used. At low negative potentials the yield of active NADH regenerated is similar on both Au and Cu, and relatively high (75 % and 71 %, respectively), but the NAD+ reduction rate and the corresponding conversion degree is low. At high (industrially relevant) negative potentials the NAD+ reduction rate and the corresponding conversion degree is high, while the yield of active NADH formed on Au is low (28 %) and intermediate on Cu (52 %). In order to increase the yield of enzymatically active NADH formed at high (industrially relevant) potentials, the Au surface was modified with Pt. This resulted in an increase in the yield of active NADH from 29.6 % to 63 %. A reaction mechanism taking into account the influence of Pt is proposed.

The spin-polarized calculations in generalized gradient approximation density–functional theory (GGA–DFT) have been used to show how the existence of second metals can modify the atomic hydrogen adsorption on Au (100), Cu (100), and Pt (100) surfaces. The computed adsorption energies for the atomic hydrogen adsorbed at the surface coverage of 0.125 ML (monolayer) for the monometallic Au (100), ...

Cysteine self assembled monolayer-modified gold (Cys/Au) electrode is used to immobilize superoxide dismutase (SOD) and establish a direct electron transfer between enzyme and electrode surface. However, due to the redox activity of copper ion on Cys monolayer, there would be an ambiguity in electrochemical studies of immobilized SOD on Cys/Au electrode. We designed a series of experiments to c...

Redox cycling of enzymatically amplified electroactive species has been widely employed for high signal amplification in electrochemical biosensors. However, gold (Au) electrodes are not generally suitable for redox cycling using a reducing (or oxidizing) agent because of the high background current caused by the redox reaction of the agent at highly electrocatalytic Au electrodes. Here we repo...
