β¦ Synopsis
Herein, we report the enhancement of electrochemical sensitivity by chemical coupling of two independent reactions in a microfluidic channel. Scheme 1 illustrates the general concept of this approach: an upstream electrode (E 1 ) drives a reaction that produces protons while a downstream electrode (E 2 ) conducts a second reaction that consumes protons. The reactions are chemically coupled by the electrogenerated protons, which are used to harness thermodynamically or kinetically the reaction at E 2 . Herein, we show two examples of a positive shift in the redox potential (E8') of an analyte in
