A carbon paste electrode modified with multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTPE) was prepared to study the electrocatalytic activity of dopamine (DP) in the presence of homocysteine (HCy) and it was used for the determination of HCy. The diffusion coefficient of HCy (D = 6.79×10-6cm 2s-1),and the kinetic parameters of its oxidation, such as electron transfer coefficient (a = 0.46), and rate constant (kh= 7.44×102dm3mol-1s-1)were also determined using electrochemical approaches. Under the optimum pH of 5.0, the peak current of oxidation of HCy at MWCNTPE in the presence of DP occurred at a potential of about 530 mV and the results showed that the oxidation peak current of HCy at the modified carbon nanotubes electrode was higher than on the unmodified electrode. The peak current of differential pulse voltammograms of HCy solutions increased linearly in the range 3.0-600 μM HCy with a detection limit of 2.08 μM HCy. This method was also examined for determination of HCy in physiological serum and urine samples.

Colorimetric and fluorometric determination of homocysteine and cysteine

Page/Page column 8; 9, (2015/12/18)
Colorimetric and fluorometric methods are disclosed for the rapid, accurate, selective, and inexpensive detection of homocysteine, or of homocysteine and cysteine, or of cysteine. The methods may be employed with materials that are readily available commercially. The novel methods are selective for homocysteine, for cysteine, or for total homocysteine and cysteine, and do not cross-react substantially with chemically-related species such as glutathione. The homocysteine-selective method does not have substantial cross-reactivity to the very closely related species cysteine. The cysteine-selective method does not have substantial cross-reactivity to the very closely related species homocysteine. The methods may be used, for example, in a direct assay of human blood plasma for homocysteine levels.
