Based on the strong interaction of noble metal particles with the sulphur atoms of thiophene derivatives, platinum nanoparticles (Pt-NPs)-dispersed poly(3-methylthiophene) (P(3-MeTh)) thin films have been successfully prepared. Evidence of the Pt-NPs confinement in the polymer was provided by the electrocatalytic activity of the modified electrodes towards the dissolved oxygen reduction reaction. The efficient immobilization by self-assembly of thiolated oligonucleotides on the embedded Pt-NPs could be monitored by electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) as well as the subsequent hybridization with the complementary sequence. The good conducting properties and high surface area of P(3-MeTh)/Pt-NPs modified electrodes also allowed the detection of both processes by cyclic voltammetry.
► Preparation of P(3-MeTh)/Pt-NPs modified electrodes by spontaneous deposition of pre-synthesised nanoparticles.
► Electrocatalytic activity of P(3-MeTh)/Pt-NPs electrodes towards the ORR.
► Successfully immobilization of self-assembly of thiolated oligonucleotides on the P(3-MeTh)/Pt-NPs electrodes.
► Monitorization of thiolated oligonucleotides self-assembly and hybridization with the complementary sequence, by EQCM.
