2-Heptyl-4,7-di(thiophen-2-yl)-1H-benzo[d]imidazole) (BImTh) was synthesized. Electrochemical copolymerization of this monomer with 2-(((9H-fluoren-9-yl)methoxy)carbonylamino)acetic acid (Fmoc-Gly-OH) was achieved on a graphite electrode and used as a matrix for amperometric cholesterol biosensing studies. In order to prepare a new cholesterol biosensor, cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) was covalently immobilized onto the copolymer coated graphite electrode. Cholesterol was used as the substrate and the decrease in oxygen level as a result of enzymatic reaction was monitored at -0.7V vs Ag reference electrode in a phosphate buffer (50 mM, pH 7.0). Kinetic parameters, storage stabilities and surface characteristics were investigated. K-M(app), I-max, LOD and sensitivity were calculated as 6.25 mu M, 9.69 mu A, 0.17 mu M and 2.47 mA/mM cm(2), respectively. This biosensor was applied to the determination of total cholesterol in serum samples. The estimation of cholesterol is an important for the diagnosis and prevention of several heart diseases and arteriosclerosis. Hence, it is important to develop new cholesterol biosensors.

An electrochemically and optically stable electrochromic polymer film based on EDOT and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophenazine
ERGÜN, EMİNE GÜL CANSU; Eroglu, Deniz (Elsevier BV, 2019-12-01)
In this work, 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydrophenazine based donor-acceptor-donor type monomer (EBE) was synthesized, electropolymerized and the resulting polymer film (P(EBE)) was investigated in terms of its electrochemical and spectroelectrochemical properties. The polymer film showed excellent electrochemical stability upon 1000 switchings by saving almost full of its electroactivity. Moreover, 95% of the optical contrast was maintained after 500 switchings. The optical band gap...

Udum, Yasemin Arslan; Durmus, Asuman; Günbaş, Emrullah Görkem; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2008-08-01)
Synthesis and electrochemical polymerization of 8,11 -bis(4-hexylthiophen-2-yl)acenaphtho[1,2-b]quinoxaline (HTAQ) were performed. The polymer was characterized by cyclic voltammetry, UV-Vis-NIR spectroscopy and colorimetry. Cyclic voltammetry studies revealed that the polymer was susceptible to both p- and n-doping. The electroactive polymer has fast switching time and high optical contrast, Spectroelectrochemistry also showed that the polymer is capable of being switched from bluish-green and a highly tra...
Synthesis and characterization of graft copolymers of poly(2-(N-pyrrolyl)ethylvinylether) and polypyrrole
Kalaycioglu, E; Toppare, Levent Kamil; Yagci, Y (Elsevier BV, 2000-01-03)
Poly(2-(N-pyrrolyl)ethylvinylether) (poly(2-NEVE)) was synthesized from poly(2-chloroethylvinylether) (poly(2-CEVE)) via phase catalysis reaction. Graft copolymers of PPy/poly(2-NEVE) were synthesized by electrochemical methods. The chemical structure of poly(2-NEVE) was investigated by several spectroscopic and thermal methods. Graft copolymers were characterized by means of FTIR, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Thermal Gravimetry Analysis (TGA), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM). Conductivities ...
A new amperometric cholesterol biosensor based on poly(3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole)
Turkarslan, Ozlem; Kayahan, Senem; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 2009-03-02)
Cholesterol oxidase (ChOx) was physically entrapped in poly(3,4-ethylenedioxypyrrole) (PEDOP) to construct an amperometric cholesterol biosensor. The responses of the enzyme electrodes were measured via monitoring oxidation current of H2O2 at +0.7V in the absence of a mediator. Kinetic parameters, operational and storage stabilities, pH and temperature dependencies were determined. K-m, I-max and sensitivity (I-max/K-m) were calculated as 3.4 mM, 34 mu A cm(-2) and 10 mu A mM(-1) cm(-2), respectively. The m...
THE INFLUENCE OF WATER ON THE ELECTROCHEMICAL POLYMERIZATION OF 3-ACYLPYRROLES
VOIGT, M; ROHDE, N; HALLENSLEBEN, ML; Toppare, Levent Kamil (Elsevier BV, 1993-03-22)
Several poly(3-acylpyrrole)s have been studied by cyclic voltammetry. The influence of some common impurities like water and cyanide present in the solvent-electrolyte system on the redox behavior of the polymer films were emphasized. Due to the presence of such impurities we have also observed changes in the macroscopic properties of the films such as their electrical conductivities. There is enough evidence that the amount of such impurities can be correlated to the degree of the so called overoxidation p...
