Pristine polycrystalline boron-doped diamond electrodes (BDDEs) - microcrystalline (B-MCDE) and ultrananocrystalline (B-UNCDE) were applied for the electrochemical reduction of several selected purine nucleotides - Guanosine 5 '-monophosphate (GMP), 2 '-Deoxyguanosine 5 '-monophosphate (dGMP), Adenosine 5 '-monophosphate (AMP), Adenosine 5 '-diphosphate (ADP), Adenosine 5 '-triphosphate (ATP), and pyrimidine nucleotides - Cytidine 5 '-monophosphate (CMP), Thymidine 5 '-monophosphate (TMP), as well as low-molecular-weight double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) at very negative potentials via linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). Three different types of electrode surfaces were employed - "H-terminated" B-MCDE (H-B-MCDE) and "O-terminated" B-MCDE/ B-UNCDE (O-B-MCDE/O-B-UNCDE). It was found that electrochemical reduction of all tested analytes (except GMP) is possible at H-B-MCDE. On the other hand, electrochemical reduction of all selected analytes (except dsDNA) is possible at O-B-MCDE/O-B-UNCDE. Ambient oxygen and preadsorption step in the manner of incubation of the corresponding sensor in the analyte solution for 30 s had a profound effect on the repeatability of the results and, in the case of H-B-MCDE, also on the magnitude of voltammetric signals and the possibility of electrochemical reduction of dGMP. The use of the proposed sensors and their main advantages and disadvantages for the voltammetric determination of the tested analytes (demonstrated via electrochemical reduction of AMP) in the presence of hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) is also discussed.
