Abstract
Acetylcholine (ACh) plays a pivotal role as a neurotransmitter, influencing nerve cell communication and overall nervous system health. Imbalances in ACh levels are linked to neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's. This study focused on developing electrochemical sensors for ACh detection, utilizing graphene oxide (GO) and a composite of reduced graphene oxide and zinc oxide (rGO/ZnO). The synthesis involved modified Hummers' and hydrothermal methods, unveiling the formation of rGO through deoxygenation and the integration of nano-sized ZnO particles onto rGO, as demonstrated by XPS and TEM. EIS analysis also revealed the enhancement of electron transfer efficiency in rGO/ZnO. Cyclic voltammograms of the electrode, comprising the rGO/ZnO composite in ACh solutions, demonstrated prominent oxidation and reduction reactions. Notably, the composite exhibited promise for ACh detection due to its sensitivity, low detection threshold, reusability, and selectivity against interfering compounds, specifically glutamate and gamma-aminobutyric acid. The unique properties of rGO, such as high specific surface area and electron mobility, coupled with ZnO's stability and catalytic efficiency, contributed to the composite's potential in electrochemical sensor applications. This research, emphasizing the synthesis, fabrication, and characterization of the rGO/ZnO composite, established itself as a reliable platform for detecting the acetylcholine neurotransmitter.

SMALL (WEINHEIM AN DER BERGSTRASSE, GERMANY) 2022; 18:e2201150. [PMID: 35638481 DOI: 10.1002/smll.202201150] [Citation(s) in RCA: 6] [Impact Index Per Article: 3.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/22/2022] [Revised: 04/18/2022] [Indexed: 06/15/2023]
Abstract
Regulating the structure and morphology of discharge product is one of the key points for developing high performance Li-O2 batteries (LOBs). In this study, the reaction mechanism of LOB is successfully controlled by the regulated fine structure of cobalt oxide through tuning the crystallization process. It is demonstrated that the cobalt oxide with lower crystallinity shows stronger affinity toward LiO2 , inducing the growth of film-like LiO2 on the electrode surface and inhibiting the further conversion to Li2 O2 . The batteries catalyzed by the lower crystallinity cobalt oxide hollow spheres which pyrolyzed from ZIF-67 at 260 °C (ZIF-67-260), go through the generation and decomposition of amorphous film-like LiO2 , which significantly reduces the charge overpotential and improves the cycle life. By contrast, the ZIF-67 hollow spheres pyrolyzed at 320 °C (ZIF-67-320) with better crystallinity are more likely to go through the solution-mediated mechanism and induce the aggregation of discharge product, resulting in the sluggish kinetics and limited performance. The combined density functional theory data also directly support the strong relationship between the adsorption toward LiO2 by the electrocatalyst and the battery performance. This work provides an important way for tuning the intermediate and constructing the high-performance battery system.
