A new sensitive and selective electrochemical sensor was developed for determination of glutathione (GSH) at the surface of carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as a sensor and pyrogallol red (PGR) as a mediator. The mechanism of GSH electrochemical behavior at the modified electrode surface was investigated by various electrochemical techniques includ...

Redmond Red, a fluoropore containing a redox-active phenoxazine core, has been explored as a new electrochemical probe for the detection of abasic sites in double-stranded DNA. The electrochemical behavior of Redmond Red-modified DNA at gold surfaces exhibits stable, quasi-reversible voltammetry with a midpoint potential centered around -50 mV versus NHE. Importantly, with Redmond Red positione...

The corrosive behavior of Ti and its alloys in fluoride media is well known. Based on electrochemical studies, this paper describes the effect of fluoride ions on the passive behavior of Ti6Al4V alloy in lactated Ringer’s serum. The open circuit potential of the alloy in the serum, which lies in the passive region of TiO 2 , shifts to more negative values as fluoride ions are added. The voltamm...

Dental alloys as CoCrMo, SS 316L stainless steel and NiTi were electrochemically investigated in artificial Fusayama saliva, unmodified and modified with two different concentrations of natrium fluoride. Electrochemical tests include measurements of open circuit, measurements of linear polarization, potentiodinamic polarization curves and electrochemical impedance spectra. The best electrochemi...

Local Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (LEIS) is an emerging discipline in the field of electrochemical research. It is based on the widely accepted Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) technique, a powerful method to determine reaction mechanisms on macroscopic electrodes. When however the electrode represents a heterogeneous behavior, local information is indispensable. This pro...

In this investigation some preliminary results are reported about the electrochemical oxidation of CO using goldbased encapsulated nanoparticles grafted on conducting substrate. The investigation has been planned in four steps: 1. production of Au(111) substrate and modification with self assembled monolayers; 2. synthesis and embedding of nanoparticles; 3. grafting of encapsulated nanoparticle...

A number of redox-active coordination polymers (CPs) or metal- organic frameworks (MOFs) have been successfully synthesized using transition metals and bridging ligands. This article aims to deal with gathering the aforementioned disperse issues regarding the electroactive CPs. It also goes towards illustrating the effects of various factors on the electrochemical behavior of CPs including...
