Xc. He et Jy. Mo, Electrocatalytic oxidation of NO at electrode modified with Nafion-Co-II-1,10-phenanthroline film and its application to NO detection, ANALYST, 125(5), 2000, pp. 793-795
The preparation and electrochemical characterization of a platinum electrod
e modified with Nafion-Co(phen)(2) as well as its application are described
. Nafion film was employed as a carrier of Co(phen)(2)(2+) and a barrier ag
ainst anionic species. The Co(phen)(2)(2+) mediator was immobilized on a Na
fion film by self-assembly. The resulting Nafion-Co(phen)(2) film electrode
exhibited catalytic activity toward NO oxidation at a potential around 0.7
0 V (versus Ag/AgCl/KCl(sat)). The electrode was selective against nitrite
and ascorbate. In phosphate buffer solution (pH 7.4), the NO oxidation curr
ent measured by 1.5 order differential linear sweep voltammetry and the NO
concentration showed a linear relationship in the range 1.4 x 10(-7)-5.0 x
10(-6) m.
