摘要：Methylene blue (MB+) and pyrrole were copolymerised to electrodeposit a novel electroactive polymer on a Au electrode which was assessed for O-2 sensing. The electroactive polymer exhibits diffusion-limited behaviour and an electrochemical, followed by catalytic (EC') mechanism in the presence of dissolved O-2. Notably, it is pH-insensitive in both N-2-purged and air-equilibrated phosphate buffered saline (PBS) from pH 4 to 8. It is stable over 18 days, possesses a good sensitivity of 256.335 mu AmM(-1)cm(-2), wide linear range of 15 mu M to 285 mu M and detection limit of 1.47 mu M (S/N= 3) for dissolved O-2. It is highly promising for use in biological investigations where pH fluctuations are expected.
