Fast-scan controlled-adsorption voltammetry for the quantification of absolute concentrations and adsorption dynamics

Fast-scan cyclic voltammetry has depended on background subtraction to quantify small changes in neurotransmitter concentration. Because of this requirement, measurements of absolute concentrations using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry have been limited. Here we develop and characterize fast-scan contr...

Zusammenfassung:Fast-scan cyclic voltammetry has depended on background subtraction to quantify small changes in neurotransmitter concentration. Because of this requirement, measurements of absolute concentrations using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry have been limited. Here we develop and characterize fast-scan controlled-adsorption voltammetry (FSCAV), which enables direct measurements of absolute concentrations in vitro without the use of flow injection to change the concentration. This enables probing the diffusion-controlled adsorption dynamics of biogenic amines and other adsorbing species. An implicit finite-difference model of mass-transport-limited adsorption was developed and is in agreement with experimental results. Optimization of FSCAV yielded a sensitivity of 81 ± 11 nA/μM for dopamine, corresponding to a limit of detection of 3.7 ± 0.5 nM. Through the combination of novel instrumentation and validated computer simulations, we show that FSCAV is an important measurement tool that can be used to determine absolute concentrations and study mass-transport-limited adsorption
