[ 1 ] - Direct Electrochemistry of Polyphenol Oxidase

The electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. Cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (PPO). A redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. The influence of various parameters such as pH,...

[ 2 ] - Preparation of Poly-N-Methylpyrrole Coated Platinum Modified Electrode in Chloroform in the Presence of Various Supporting Electrolytes and Its Use for the Catalytic Oxidation of Ascorbic Acid and Hydroquinone

The electrochemical preparation of poly-N-methylpyrrole (PMPy) coated platinum electrode in chloroform in the presence of tetrabutylammonium Perchlorate, hexafluorophosphate, hydrogensulphate, Periodate and Iodide as supporting electrolytes was performed. The influence of electrosynthesis method, dopant anion type and operation temperature on electrochemical behavior of polymer were demonst...

[ 3 ] - A Cyclic Voltammetric Study of the Aqueous Electrochemistry of Some Anthraquinone Derivatives on Carbon Paste Electrode

The aqueous electrochemistry of a number of anthraquinone derivatives was studied by using cyclic voltammetry at the surface of carbon paste electrode (CPE). From measurements of the half-wave potential as a function of pH, the potential - pH diagrams were constructed for each compound. The values of formal potentials and the pK'a of some different redox and acid-base couples inv...

[ 4 ] - Electro-Catalytic Oxidation of Methanol at Ni(OH)2 Nanoparticles-Poly (o-Anisidine)/Triton X-100 Film onto Phosphotungstic Acid-Modified Carbon Paste Electrode

In this work, Phosphotungstic Acid modified Carbon Paste Electrode (PWA-CPE) is used as a substrate for electro-polymerization of o-Anisidine (OA). Also, Triton X-100 (TX-100) surfactant is used as an additive for electrochemical polymerization of OA onto the PWA-CPE, which is investigated as a novel matrix for dispersion of nickel species. The prepared electrodes are characterized by...

[ 5 ] - Anticancer activity of Doxorubicin conjugated to polymer/carbon based-nanohybrid against MCF-7 breast and HT-29 colon cancer cells

The Cancer is one of the world’s most devastating diseases. Doxorubicin (DOX) is an effective chemotherapeutic drug; however, its toxicity is a significant limitation in therapy. Due to the severe side effects of chemotherapy drugs, scientists have tried to load these drugs in nanocomposites. This paper describes a facile and low cost approach for preparation polymeric biodegradable nanohybrid ...
