A screen-printed disposable electrode system for the determination of duloxetine hydrochloride (DL) was developed using screen-printing technology. Homemade printing has been characterized and optimized on the basis of effects of the modifier and plasticizers. The fabricated bi-electrode potentiometric strip containing both working and reference electrodes was used as duloxetine hydrochloride s...

Food colorants are important in food selection because they improve the gastronomic appeal of foods by improving their aesthetic appeal. However, after prolonged use, many turn toxic and cause medical problems. A synthetic azo-class dye called carmoisine gives meals a red color. Therefore, determination samples is great importance from human health control. The current work was developed to syn...

Electrocardiogram (ECG) electrodes are important sensors for detecting heart disease whose performance determines the validity and accuracy of collected original ECG signals. Due to large drawbacks (e.g., allergy, shelf life) traditional commercial gel electrodes, textile receive widespread attention their excellent comfortability breathability. This work demonstrated a dry electrode monitoring...

The influence of the experimental conditions (glutathione concentration and incubation time and temperature) concerning the covalent immobilization of glutathione via carbodiimide coupling on the behavior of a glutathione modified screen-printed carbon electrode obtained by electrografting is evaluated. The optimized parameters fasten the modification process and improve the performance of the ...

Carbon nanotubes (CNT) are one of the most widely used nonmaterials. It is applied in various fields due to its special physical characteristics, excellent electronic performance and stable chemical activity. There are two types of CNT occur (a) Single walled carbon nanotube (b) Multiwalled carbon nanotube. As their names shows, SWNTs consist of a single, cylindrical graphene layer, where as MW...

BACKGROUND ECG (Electrocardiogram) measurements in home health care demands new sensor solutions. In this study, six different configurations of screen printed conductive ink electrodes have been evaluated with respect to electrode potential variations and electrode impedance. METHODS The electrode surfaces consisted of a Ag/AgCl-based ink with a conduction line of carbon or Ag-based ink unde...

Abstract Silver/silver chloride (Ag/AgCl) is ubiquitous in the field of electrochemical biosensing due to its suitability as a reference electrode material. However, we recently discovered that screen-printed Ag/AgCl ink has detrimental effect on Alcohol Oxidase enzyme stability. We performed an optical absorbance assay isolate interaction and discover surprisingly strong inhibition effect. The...

Immunoassays are a valid alternative to the more expensive and time consuming quantitative HPLC or GC(1, 2) methods for the screening detection of hazardous mycotoxins in food commodities. In this protocol we show how to fabricate and interrogate an electrochemical competitive Enzyme linked immunomagnetic assay based on the use of magnetic beads as solid support for the immunochemical chain(3) ...

It has been found that multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CS-CNT) can be produced in mass level, simply by pyrolysing mustard oil which was then derivatized with carboxylic acid (CS-CNT (acid)) and ammonia (CS-CNT (base)). A low cost electrode was fabricated on Teflon substrate with three silver wires which was coated with different types of carbon nanotube. A comparative study of electrochemical be...
