Embodiment 1

[0061] 0.1mol·L -1 25 mL of Tris-HCl buffer solution (pH=7.5) was placed in the three-electrode system, and the supporting electrolyte was 0.15 mol L -1 KCl, constant temperature (25°C), nitrogen deoxygenation for 10min, add 35mg L -1 MWCNTs (d=10-20nm, length 1-2μm), stirred rapidly for 2min and then sonicated for 10min, maintained nitrogen atmosphere, injected 30μL of LDH liquid, stirred for a certain period of time, added pyruvic acid (8.0×10 -4 mol L -1 ) and NADH (2.0×10 -4 mol L -1 ), record NAD under different reaction times + Differential pulse voltammetry reduction peak current i p,NAD + , change the stirring time after injecting the LDH liquid and carry out a series of experiments, and compare with the LDH reaction system whose stirring time is 5min in Comparative Example 1, the results are as follows Figure 6 shown. It can be seen from the figure that after LDH interacts with MWCNT for 5 minutes, i p,NAD + The decline of relative to no carbon nanotubes i...

Embodiment 2

[0065] 0.1mol·L -1 25 mL of Tris-HCl buffer solution was placed in the three-electrode system, and the supporting electrolyte was 0.15 mol L -1 KCl, constant temperature (25°C), nitrogen deoxygenation for 10min, add 35mg L -1 MWCNTs (d=10-20nm, length 1-2μm), stirred rapidly for 2min and then sonicated for 10min, maintained nitrogen atmosphere, injected 30μL of LDH liquid, stirred for 5 minutes, added pyruvic acid (8.0×10 -4 mol L -1 ) and NADH (2.0×10 -4 mol L -1 ), record NAD under different reaction times + Differential pulse voltammetry reduction peak current i p,NAD + , change the pH value of the buffer solution, and conduct a series of experiments, the results are as follows Figure 8 shown.

[0066] Depend on Figure 7 , 8 It can be seen that the two enzymatic systems, the buffer solution with similar pH, and the same reaction time p,NAD + This may be due to the fact that acidity has little or no effect on the solubility of MWCNTs. When the pH value is lowe...

Embodiment 3

[0068] 0.1mol·L -1 25 mL of Tris-HCl buffer solution (pH=7.5) was placed in the three-electrode system, and the supporting electrolyte was 0.15 mol L -1 KCl, constant temperature (25°C), nitrogen deoxygenation for 10min, add MWCNTs (d=10-20nm, length 1-2μm), stir rapidly for 2min, then sonicate for 10min, maintain nitrogen atmosphere, inject 30μL of LDH liquid, stir for 5 minutes , add pyruvic acid (8.0×10 -4 mol L -1 ) and NADH (2.0×10 -4 mol L -1 ), record NAD under different reaction times + Differential pulse voltammetry reduction peak current i p,NAD + , changing the amount of MWCNTs added, and conducting a series of experiments, the results are as follows Figure 9 , 10 shown. The results show that: after adding a small amount of MWCNT aqueous solution i p,NAD + The peak current changes more obviously, i p,NAD + After 12 minutes, the current began to have a significant difference, which may be due to the small solubility of MWCNT in water, but only uniformly...

Abstract

The invention relates to an electrochemical method for measuring the toxicity effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes. The electrochemical method has the advantages of simple operation and light equipment and is useful to monitor the multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the environment. The method for measuring the toxicity effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes is as follows: adding LDH in an MWCNTs solution, evenly stirring the mixture, adding Pyr and NADH, and recording the reduction peak current produced by the product NAD+ at the hanging mercury-drop electrode. The MWCNTs solution is obtained according to the following method: putting MWCNTs in an HCI (Tris-HCI) buffer solution of trometamol, quickly stirring and then ultrasonically treating the mixture for 10 minutes. The electrochemical method provides a new idea to construct a small-size portable bioelectrochemical sensor and has great application prospect in aspects such as research on biological redox systems and monitoring on environmental pollutions and the like.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an electrochemical method for measuring the poisonous effect of multi-walled carbon nanotubes. Background technique [0002] Nanotechnology is a symbol of science and technology in the 21st century. Due to the special properties of nanomaterials, it has broad application prospects in various fields. However, in recent years, many articles have discussed its negative effects one after another. Among them, Carbon Volume 44, Issue 6 serially published 6 articles discussing the potential harm of carbon nanotubes to health. Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) is a completely artificial one-dimensional structure of nanomaterials, first discovered by Iijima in 1991, belongs to the Fullerene carbon system, is a kind of carbon nanomaterials, has a good Mechanical, electrical, and magnetic properties can be divided into single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Unprocessed carbon nanotubes are so light tha...
