Electrochemical study on behavior of EuMo2 complex and its interaction with DNA.

The electrochemical behavior of complex EuMo2 (Mo = Morin, 2',3,4'5,7-pentahydroxyflavone) and its interactions with calf thymus DNA were studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and double potential step chronocoulometry (DPSCC) at glass carbon electrode (GCE) and DNA modified GCE, respectively. Information such as diffusion coefficient (D), rate constant (ks) of EuMo2 and intrinsic binding constant (K), binding numbers (n) of bound species per DNA (bp) were obtained. EuMo2 can bind to DNA, and the binding mode is intercalation. By nonlinear fitting with Langmuir equation, a K of 1.02 x 10(6) M-1 and an n of 1 were obtained.

Electrochemical detection of scDNA cleavage in the presence of macrocyclic hexaaza-copper(II) complex.

The hexaaza macrocyclic copper(II) complex Cu(II)L(L=1,8-Dihydroxyethyl-1,3,6,8,10,13-hexaazacyclotetradecane), which has octahedral structure similar to some natural complexes, is synthesized and purified. In this study, oxidative breakage DNA by the reaction of Cu(II)L with H2O2 and ascorbate has been investigated by gel electrophoresis experiments. In electrochemical experiments, the on scDNA-modified glassy carbon electrode(GCE) is cleaved by the Cu(II)L and redox changing of the metal catalyst without adding any other reagents. Above all, the need for concentration of scDNA is much lower than that of gel electrophoresis experiments and the process of the performance is easy. Furthermore, Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and A.C. Impedance, which are performed to monitor scDNA cleavage at the scDNA-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE), are fast, simple and highly efficient. The mechanism of the damage can be suggested: Fenton.

Electrochemical study on the behavior of Morin and its interaction with DNA.

Voltammetric behavior of Morin was studied in 0.1M HAc-NaAc+50mM KCl (pH 3.4) solution at glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using cyclic voltammetry (CV). Morin showed an irreversible anodic peak at 0.720 V in CV which was involving two electrons and two protons. Also, the interaction of Morin with double-stranded calf thymus DNA (ctDNA) was studied by CV at GCE with an irreversible electrochemical equation. As a result of reaction with ctDNA, the voltammetric peak of Morin was a position shift and the peak current decreased. The diffusion coefficients of both free and binding Morin (D(f)=1.1,086 x 10(-7)cm(2)s(-1) and D(b)=8.2,544 x 10(-9)cm(2)s(-1)), binding constant (K=1.7,765 x 10(7)cm(3)mol(-1)), and binding site size (s=0.8,510) of the Morin-DNA complex were obtained simultaneously by non-linear fit analysis. The results demonstrate that Morin can bind to ctDNA in 0.1M HAc-NaAc+50mM KCl (pH 3.4) solution and the ring B of Morin intercalates between the DNA base pairs.

Study on the interaction of new water-soluble porphyrin with DNA.

A porphyrin meso-tetrakis{[4-(1-pyridyl)propoxy]phenyl}porphyrin (TPyPP) and its Ni complex (TPyPP(Ni)) have been synthesized and characterized by 1H NMR, UV-vis spectra. The interaction of two porphyrins with calf thymus-DNA (CT-DNA) has been explored by UV-vis, fluorescence and circular dichroic spectroscopy and viscosity measurements. The results suggest that these porphyrins can bind to DNA by the same binding mode. TPyPP outside binds by self-stack with DNA both at low drug load r (=[porphyrin]/[DNA]) and high drug load. Though TPyPP(Ni) has center metal nickel, binding mode with DNA has little difference compared with TPyPP, dominating out-binding mode with different direction along DNA. The binding constants of the TPyPP and TPyPP(Ni) to DNA were 4.65 x 10(5) M(-1) and 3.2 x 10(5) M(-1), respectively. A colored precipitate was found after time in two porphyrin's viscosity measurement. The reasonable interpretation is the porphyrins with alkyl connected N-position of pyridine can strongly interact with the anionic phosphates of DNA and lead to hydrophobic complex.

Electrochemical investigation on interaction between DNA with quercetin and Eu-Qu3 complex.

The interactions of quercetin (Qu) and Eu-Qu3 complex with calf thymus DNA were studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and double potential step chronocoulometry (DPSCC) at glass carbon electrode (GCE) for the surface method. The method is simple, convenient, reliable, reagent saving. Information such as intrinsic binding constant (K), and binding numbers (n) of bound species per DNA (bp), ratio (K(Ox)/K(Red)) of the binding constants for the oxidized and reduced forms of a bound species and interaction mode was obtained using dsDNA-modified GCE. Quercetin and Eu-Qu3 can both bind to DNA, but quercetin binds to DNA mainly by electrostatic attraction and the complex bind to DNA by both intercalation and electrostatic attraction. For the quercetin/dsDNA-modified GCE systems, a K of (3.80+/-0.3) x 10(4) M(-1), saturation coverage value (Gammas) of (2.28+/-0.2) x 10(-10) mol/cm2 and n of 1.2 were obtained. For the complex system, a saturation coverage value (Gammas) of 1.65 x 10(-10) mol/cm2 and n of 1.8 were obtained.

Electrochemical studies of kanamycin immobilization on self-assembled monolayer and interaction with DNA.

The electrochemical characteristics of kanamycin onto self-assembled monolayer (SAM) modified gold electrode (SAM/Au) is investigated by cyclic voltammetry. In the potential range 0-0.6 V, Cu(II) yields a pair of stable redox waves at the bare gold electrode. E(pa) is located at 0.189 V and E(pc) at 0.254 V. In contrast, Cu(II) is reduced at a more positive potential and a decreasing current at the kanamycin SAM/Au electrode. Cu(II) and kanamycin can form a stoichiometry complex with chemical ratio of 2:1. The interaction of Cu(II)-kanamycin complex with calf thymus DNA is also studied in the solution. And the interactive mode between Cu(II)-kanamycin complex and DNA is verified by the fluorescence method. Binding constants (K) of the Cu(II)-kanamycin complex to DNA and binding site size (s) are calculated from voltammetric data and equal to 1.5 x 10(7) l/mol and 4 bp, respectively.

Comparative study on fluorescence enhancement and quenching of europium and terbium chelate anions in cationic micelles.

Fluorescence enhancement and quenching of water soluble chelates of terbium (Tb3+) with Tiron, salicylic acid (SA), 4-sulfonyl salicylic acid (SSA) and acetylacetone (AA) and sparingly soluble chelates of europium (Eu3+) with beta-diketones were comparatively examined in the presence of cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTMAB) and cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC). By the composition of the complexes, surface tension measurements and spectral analysis, the binding mode of chelate anions to the micellar surface of cationic surfactants was discussed in terms of ion-exchange model. Quenching effect of CPC on the fluorescence of association complexes seems to arise from the charge transfer from a fluorescent ligand to pyridinium cation. In the case of the chelates of Eu3+ with beta-diketones, however, pyridinium ion is only capable of overlapping the aromatic ring of beta-diketones to less extent since the poorly soluble charged chelates have a weak affinity for the highly polar surface of pyridinium cationic micelles. Efficient charge transfer between the excited aromatic beta-diketone and pyridinium cation fails to be established. CPC also shows enhanced effect on fluorescence like CTMAB.

Plasma degradation of dyes in water with contact glow discharge electrolysis.

Contact glow discharge electrolysis (CGDE) of two dyes, weak acid brilliant red B and weak acid flavine G, was investigated under different concentrations, temperature and mediums. From the variation of their concentration with the reaction time, it was demonstrated that the oxidation would be a first-order reaction. On the base line of UV spectra of solution in the degradation process, we deduced that two dyes underwent the oxidative degradation in CGDE. The rate constants, relevant coefficients and the decolorization degree were displayed under different conditions.

Study on the interactions between CuL(2) and Morin with DNA.

Absorption, fluorescence spectral and viscometric studies have been carried out on the interaction of Morin (2',3,4',5,7-pentahydroxyflavone, ) and its Cu complex, CuL(2) x 2H(2)O [L=Morin (2'-OH group deprotonated), ] with calf thymus DNA. CuL(2) shows different spectral characteristics from that of Morin in the presence of DNA. Increasing fluorescence is seen for CuL(2) with DNA addition whereas decreased fluorescence is observed for Morin. Quenching fluorescence is observed for the DNA-EB system when CuL(2) is added whereas slightly quenched fluorescence is seen for the DNA-EB system with Morin addition. The relative viscosity of DNA and the DNA-EB system increases with the addition of CuL(2.) Hypochromism and a smaller shift are observed in the UV-visible spectra of CuL(2) in the presence of DNA and the denatured temperature of DNA is decreased in the presence of CuL(2). The above results suggested that Morin and CuL(2) can both bind to DNA, but the binding mode is different. The complex binds to DNA mainly by intercalation, while Morin binds in a nonintercalating mode.

Voltammetric studies of the interaction of transition-metal complexes with DNA.

The interaction of the two new synthesized transition-metal complexes, ML(2) (M=Co, Cu, L=1,8-dihydroxyethyl-1, 3,8,10,13-hexa-azacyclotetradecane) with calf thymus DNA was probed by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). Adding deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) into [CoL](2+) and [CuL](2+) solution, the i(p) value of all the peaks of [CoL](2+) and [CuL](2+) significantly decreased in proportion to concentration of DNA. Glassy carbon electrodes (GCEs) were modified with DNA by adsorption, and it was electrochemically characterized with transition-metal complexes, [ML](2+). The DNA modification layer on the GCE is unstable to alkali and to heat, but stable to acid solutions and very stable in long stock in a dry state. It could be seen that peak potential shifted positively and the peak current increased significantly. The electrochemical parameters, binding constant (k(n+)) and binding sites(s) were calculated by a nonlinear regression method.
