  • Title: Myoglobin- and Hydroxyapatite-Doped Carbon Nanofiber-Modified Electrodes for Electrochemistry and Electrocatalysis.
    Author: Liu J, Weng W, Xie H, Luo G, Li G, Sun W, Ruan C, Wang X.
    Journal: ACS Omega; 2019 Sep 24; 4(13):15653-15659. PubMed ID: 31572867.
    Abstract:
    In this paper, a hydroxyapatite (HAp)-doped carbon nanofiber (CNF)-modified carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) was prepared and used for the investigation on the direct electrochemistry and electrocatalysis of myoglobin (Mb). HAp nanoparticles were mixed within a polyacrylonitrile (PAN) solution, and a HAp@PAN nanofiber was synthesized by electrospinning process, which was further controlled by carbonization at 800 °C for 2 h in a nitrogen atmosphere to get a HAp@CNF nanocomposite. Various techniques were used to check the physicochemical properties of HAp@CNF. Mb was mixed with a HAp@CNF dispersion solution and casted on the surface of CILE to obtain an electrochemical sensing platform. The direct electrochemistry of Mb on the modified electrode was checked when a pair of enhanced redox waves appeared, indicating the direct electron transfer of Mb. HAp@CNF exhibited high conductivity, good biocompatibility, and large surface area, which was beneficial for Mb immobilization. The modified electrode showed excellent electrocatalytic activity toward the reduction of trichloroacetic acid and sodium nitrite, which was further used to establish a new electroanalytical method. Real samples were analyzed by the proposed method with satisfactory results.
