Abstract: A peptide aptamer for specific recognition of arginine and its application are provided. The sequence of the peptide aptamer is shown in SEQ ID No. 1. The peptide aptamer is modified by a group that improves stability, or by a fluorescent group, an isotope and an electrochemical group that provide a detection signal, or by an affinity ligand and a mercapto. According to the computer-aided molecular docking simulation prediction, the peptide aptamer that can specifically bind to L-arginine is screened, which is verified by an isothermal titration calorimeter. The peptide aptamer has the advantages of good stability, strong binding ability, high specificity and low production cost.

Abstract: A method and a sensor for detecting L-arginine are provided. The method includes synthesizing ferrocene-functionalized hexadecapeptide dithiocyclopentane (FC-P16 Peptide), preparing a polypeptide composite membrane-modified electrode (FC-P16 Peptide/AuE), detecting L-Arg and other steps. The results show that the polypeptide composite membrane-modified electrode (FC-P16 Peptide/AuE) exhibits excellent electrochemical response properties to L-Arg. In 10 mmol/L phosphate-buffered saline (PBS, pH=7.4), the DPV response peak current of the polypeptide composite membrane-modified electrode has an excellent linear relationship with the L-Arg concentration of 1.0×10?13 mol/L to 1.0×10?7 mol/L, with a detection limit of 1.0×10?13 mol/L. With prominent reproducibility, repeatability and selectivity, the modified electrode has potential application in life science and nutritional health.

Abstract: In-situ methods for depositing a metal film without the use of a barrier layer are disclosed. Some embodiments comprise forming an amorphous nucleation layer comprising one or more of silicon or boron and forming a metal layer on the nucleation layer. These processes are performed without an air break between processes.
