Electrochemical nanoprobes for the chemical detection of neurotransmitters.
Neurotransmitters, acting as chemical messengers, play an important role in neurotransmission, which governs many functional aspects of nervous system activity. Electrochemical probes have proven a very useful technique to study neurotransmission, especially to quantify and qualify neurotransmitters. With the emerging interests in probing neurotransmission at the level of single cells, single v...
متن کاملThin film microelectrodes for electrochemical detection of neurotransmitters
An important signaling process in the nervous system is the release of chemical messengers called neurotransmitters from neurons. In this thesis alternative thin film electrode materials for applications targeting electrochemical detection of neurotransmitters in chip devices were evaluated. Microelectrodes made of the conductive polymer Pedot:tosylate were characterized with respect to their p...
متن کاملThe discovery of chemical neurotransmitters.
Neurotransmitters have become such an intrinsic part of our theories about brain function that many today are unaware of how difficult it was to prove their existence or the protracted dispute over the nature of synaptic transmission. The story is important not only because it is fascinating science history, but also because it exemplifies much of what is best in science and deserving to be emu...
متن کاملElectrochemical Hybrid Bio-sensors for Neurotransmitters Analysis
Abstrac t Biosensors are devices that detect and transmit information regarding a physiological change or the presence of various chemical or biological materials in a given environment. A new concept of electrochemical biosensors, directly related to the biological redox processes at the cellular and subcellular level, is proposed for testing microfluidic probes, in order to investigate and tr...
متن کاملLiquid chromatography-electrochemical detection for studying the effects of tetrahydrobiopterin on monoamine neurotransmitters in rat striatum
Tetrahydrobiopterin (BH4) is an essential co-factor in the biosynthesis of monoamine neurotransmitters. A nano-Pt/Pd modified electrode as the electrochemical detector (ED) for high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled with microdialysis sampling, is used to explore the effect of administration of BH4 on the monoamine neurotransmitters in the rat striatum. The researches demonstrate...
