Study of electrochemical behavior of the Fe3O4 nanoparticles in aprotic media

详细

Peculiarities of electrochemical behavior of the Fe₃O₄ magnetic nanoparticles immobilized on the surface of a platinum electrode in aprotic organic media were investigated. Possible scheme of electrochemical behavior of nanoparticles depending on pre-electrolysis potential (–1.3,–2.5 V) was suggested. The effect of pre-electrolysis time, potential scan rate and nature of supporting electrolyte on the processes investigated was determined. A linear dependence of electrochemical oxidation signal versus the concentration of nanoparticles in modifying suspension in the concentration range of 0.05—0.5 g L^–1 was observed. The results of the performed research allow using magnetite nanoparticles as a direct signal-generating label in electrochemical immunoassay.
