Most solid metal electrodes do not oxidize in
this range and so have low background current
Many others are easily reduced
All are candidates for voltammetric analysis
Signal to Noise in Voltammetric Analysis
The limit of detection (LOD) is often defined as 3xpeak to peak signal due to noise
“Noise” in voltammetric methods is the result of
1. Competing or background electron transfer events originating in the
a) Solvent
b) Surface
2. Currents arising from charging of the electrode surface
The limit of detection is also affected by distortion of the signal due to IR error

Dopamine is a potent neurotransmitter and hormone in the brain.
Can be supplied as medication that acts on the sympathetic nervous
system producing effects such as increased heart rate and blood pressure.
Deficits in dopamine are linked to behavioral diseases such as attentiondeficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD).
Abnormally high dopamine levels have been linked to psychosis,
schizophrenia and cocaine addiction
Typical cylindrical carbon-fiber microelectrodes are 5-30
mircometers in diameter and 25-400 micrometers in length.
Due to the small size of the probe, minimal tissue damage
occurs during insertion into the brain
B. Jill Venton and R. Mark Wightman, Anal. Chem., 2003, 414A, Psychoanalytical Electrochemistry,
Dopamine and Behavior
Voltammetric detection of dopamine. When sufficient potential is applied
to the electrode, dopamine is oxidized to dopamine-o-quinone, donating two
electrons that are detected as current. When the potential is returned, any
dopamine-o-quinone remaining at the electrode surface is reduced back to
dopamine by accepting electrons, producing current in the opposite direction.
In the example shown, the potential is applied by fast-scan cyclic
voltammetry. With this technique, the resultant current comprises timeresolved peaks that aid analyte identification. These measurements are
typically repeated several times per second.
InVivo Monitoring of Dopamine Release in Rat Brain with Differential Normal Pulse Voltammetry

Measurement of Dopamine (see structure) is in a background of other
Easily oxidizable materials such as ascorbic acid (AA) 3,4dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC). Could not really solve the problem by
Instrumental methods so instead inhibited the ability of the rat to produce
DOPAC by lesion to the brain.

B. Back ground current
attributed to the charging of
the double layer
(rearrangement of charged
species around the electrode)
and is proportional to the scan
rate and capacitance of the
electrode.
C. Resulting backgroundsubtracted cyclic
voltammogram. Indicates that
change in current is
attributable to oxidation of
dopamine and reduction of the
electron form quinone back to
dopamine. Dopamine has an
oxidation peak of +.6V
Shows the response as a carbonfiber microelectrode is lowered
through the nucleus accumbens in
150 micrometer increments, while
dopamine fibers in the medial
forebrain bundle were electrically
stimulated.
In the release from a single
recording site in the nucleus
accumbens varied while the
stimulating electrode was
incrementally lowered through the
dopamine fiber pathway.
With these methods, an area w/
high release can be targeted for
measurements during an
experiment
CVs can be compared based on peak height, the relative ratio of oxidative and
reductive peaks, as well as peak location and shape
Although using CV are a powerful tool for
identifying electroactive compounds, some
species such as norepinephrine and
dopamine have nearly identical CV and
cannot be differentiated by CV analysis
alone. This is due to the structure similarity.
To Identify dopamine changes in vivo,
electrodes are placed in a known
dopaminergic regions w/ low norepinephrine
content

A blocking membrane which exlcudes anions

Drug effect on Dopamine
Represents examples of various drugs on electrically
stimulated dopamine release in freely moving rates.
Haloperidol a dopamine receptor antagonist, increases
dopamine release by blocking D2 receptor on the
dopamine terminals.
Nomifensine a dompamine transporter antagonist
causes an increase in dopaminergic signal by blocking
uptake.
Ethanol a general depressant that affects multiple ligandgated ion channels in the brain, decreases electrically
evoked dopamine releases
Electrically evoked vs
naturally occurring dopamine
No signals were detected when the rats were sitting quietly in the test cage.
However, when a barrier was lifted and the rats entered a novel environment,
dopamine transiently increased in the nucleus accumbens. It is clear that
dopamine concentrations increased only at the initial contact w/ the male and not
before or afterward.
