Electrochemical study of photovoltaic effect of nano titanium dioxide on hemoglobin
چکیده انگلیسی

Nano titanium dioxide (TiO2) and hemoglobin (Hb) were co-modified on pyrolytic graphite (PG) electrode to study the photovoltaic effect of TiO2 nanoparticles (NPs) on the electron transfer reactivity and catalytic activity of the protein. By means of cyclic voltammetry (CV) and FTIR measurements, the study was characterized in both aerobic and anaerobic environments. Experimental results revealed that the factors which mainly interacted with Hb were electron/hole pairs and reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated by the photovoltaic effect when TiO2 NPs were irradiated under ultraviolet (UV) light. The electron/hole pairs generated on the surface of TiO2 would influence the structure of Hb gently, so the electron transfer reactivity and catalytic ability of the protein slightly changed. In contrast, ROS interacted with Hb intensively, which brought in much conformational change to Hb and its active centers, and even cause some damage. Consequently, the electron transfer reactivity and catalytic activity of Hb changed with a process of increasing initially and decreasing afterwards.
