Popis: A simple and selective voltammetric method based on selenium-gold film modified glassy carbon electrode has been developed for investigating electrochemical reaction mechanism of selenocystine. With N2 saturated, redox reactions between selenocystine (SeC) and selenocysteine (SeCys) were judged to be two simple electron-transfer processes. With air saturated, the reduction reaction was diagnosed to be EC catalytic reaction (the chemical oxidation reaction of the SeCys by O2 (C) following the electron-transfer reaction (E)) and oxidation reaction is a simple electron-transfer process. With pure O2 saturated, only reduction peak was observed and the reaction was judged to be EC catalytic reaction. The electron-transfer numbers of redox reaction were calculated to be 2 by chronocoulometry and rotating disk electrode.
