Abstract
N-(3-Aminopropyl)-N'-methyl-4,4'-bipyridinium is coupled to tiopronin-capped Au nanoparticles (diameter ca. 2 nm) to yield methyl(aminopropyl)viologen-functionalized Au nanoparticles (MPAV(2+)-Au nanoparticles). In situ electrochemical surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurements are used to follow the electrochemical deposition of the bipyridinium radical cation modified Au nanoparticles on an Au-coated glass surface and the reoxidation and dissolution of the bipyridinium radical cation film. The MPAV(2+)-functionalized Au nanoparticles are also employed for the amplified SPR detection of NAD(+) and NADH cofactors. By SPR monitoring the partial biocatalyzed dissolution of the bipyridinium radical cation film in the presence of diaphorase (DP) NAD(+) is detected in the concentration range of 1x10(-4) M to 2x10(-3) M. Similarly, the diaphorase-mediated formation of the bipyridinium radical cation film on the Au-coated glass surface by the reduction of the MPAV(2+)-functionalized Au nanoparticles by NADH is used for the amplified SPR detection of NADH in the concentration range of 1x10(-4) M to 1x10(-3) M.
