Electrochemistry The behavior of proteins and polypeptides at electrified aqueousorganic interfaces is of benefit in label‐free detection strategies. In their Full Paper on page 2096 ff. , featured on the Back Cover, Damien W. M. Arrigan et al. report the detection of rat amylin by applying a potential difference across an oilwater interface, thereby causing the molecule to transfer from one phase to another and resulting in a current signal. At physiological pH, rat amylin was selectively detected in the presence of a protein mixture, thus illustrating the bioanalytical possibilities for this electrochemical behavior.
