Publication number: 20220065808Abstract: A method for a selective detection of L-tryptophan (L-Trp) using formaldehyde as a medium is disclosed. The method includes preparation of a copper sulfide nanosheets-chitosan/acidified functionalized multi-wall carbon nanotubes (CuS NS-CS/F-MWCNTs) composite material, preparation of a composite film-modified electrode CuS NS-CS/F-MWCNTs/GCE, and a detection of the L-Trp. Since oxidation peaks of L-Trp and L-tyrosine (L-Tyr) overlap and are difficult to separate, the present invention provides a method for a highly selective detection of L-Trp through the Pictet-Spengler reaction of formaldehyde (HCHO) with L-Trp, in which the oxidation peak potential of L-Trp is shifted to 0.82 V and the oxidation peak potential of L-Tyr is 0.63 V, thereby effectively avoiding the interference of L-Tyr. The CuS NS-CS/F-MWCNTs/GCE is applied to detect L-Trp in the formaldehyde medium without any interference from L-Tyr or other amino acids with 50-fold concentrations.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 24, 2020Publication date: March 3, 2022Applicant: CHANGSHA UNIVERSITY OF SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGYInventors: Zhong CAO, Junyi HE, Qin ZHU, Chu LIU, Saifei FENG, Huiying HU, Donghong YU
