Earlier Developed Techniques
2014
The first electrochemical experiments were performed with solid materials, esp. metals. However, these experiments, conducted in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, were directed toward the elucidation of the basic features of the electrical action of chemical substances and the chemical action of electricity. Initially, metals played the major role; only later it became obvious that many chemical compounds possess metallic or semiconducting properties that can be utilized in electrochemical cells. Parallel to the studies of new electrode materials, solid electrolytes were discovered and entire solid galvanic cells could be constructed. In this book, we will entirely neglect pure solid…
Mesoporous silica-based materials for use in electrochemical enzyme nanobiosensors
2012
Abstract Biology and medicine have seen great advancements in the development of enzyme nanobiosensors capable of characterizing and quantifying biomolecules. We provide an overview of mesoporous silica (MPS)-based enzyme nanobiosensors developed for biological and medical applications, and we describe significant advances in these technologies. We review progress in constructing high-performance electrochemical enzyme biosensors. We also discuss: • MCM-41 and SBA-15-modified and MPS composite electrodes for enzyme biosensing; • incorporation of biorecognition elements into MPS material electrodes for enzyme biosensing; and, • MCM-41 and SBA-15-supported electrocatalytic MPS-based electroch…
