Sensitive voltammetric determination of thymol in essential oil of Carum copticum seeds using boron-doped diamond electrode

Antiaflatoxigenic activity of Carum copticum essential oil

Plants are unique sources of useful metabolites. Plant essential oils display a wide range of antimicrobial effects against various pathogens. Here, we studied the essential oil from the seeds of Carum copticum. We monitored aflatoxin by high-performance liquid chromatography. Results show that Carum copticum essential oil inhibits Asergillus parasiticus growth and prevents aflatoxin production...

Simultaneous Voltammetric Detection of Carbaryl and Paraquat Pesticides on Graphene-Modified Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode

Monitoring of pesticide residues in food, beverages, and the environment requires fast, versatile, and sensitive analyzing methods. Direct electrochemical detection of pesticides could represent an efficient solution. Adequate electrode material, electrochemical technique, and optimal operation parameters define the detection method for practical application. In this study, cyclic voltammetric ...

Development of Conductive Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode: A microscopic, Spectroscopic, and Voltammetric Study

Building on diamond characteristics such as hardness, chemical inertness and low electron emission threshold voltage, the current microscopic, spectroscopic and voltammetric investigations are directed towards improving the properties of electrode coating materials for their future use in clinical studies of deep brain stimulation via fast-scan cyclic voltammetry (FSCV). In this study we combin...

Determination of Clinically Relevant Compounds using HPLC and Electrochemical Detection with a Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode

Decomposition of toxic organics by boron-doped diamond electrode

Organic phosphate pesticides are of great enviro-nmental concern primarily because they are toxic to mammals and birds, and are relatively soluble in water to contaminate surface water and groundwater [1,2]. In this study, the decomposition of phorate, a widely used organic phosphate insecticide, in aqueous solutions by Boron doped diamond(BDD) electrode was examined. The LD50 of phorate was re...
