Electrode-to-cell/tissue interfaces with high biocompatibility, low impedance, and long-term chemical mechanical stability are of paramount importance in numerous biological biomedical applications. For meticulous monitoring parameters, there is a rapidly growing interest sensing at subcellular levels radically improved spatiotemporal resolution, which necessitates ultra-miniaturized electrodes...

Conductive metal-organic frameworks (c-MOFs) are promising active electrode materials for electrochemical double-layer capacitors with a performance that already exceeds most carbon-based materials. However, their excellent supercapacitance is primarily based on organic or alkaline electrolytes, which largely impede broad applications and sustainabilities. In this work, we propose new synthesis...

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were immobilized on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to form a MWCNTs-CTAB nanocomposite-modified electrode. The electrocatalytic response of the modified electrode towards tryptophan (Trp) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The surface...

a new cesium ion selective pvc membrane based on parent calix [4] arene was developed for potentiometric determination of cesium in environmental samples. the electrode based on p-5,11,17,23tetra(tertbutyl) 25,26,27,28-tetrahydroxy calix[4]arene(thc) as ionophor ,dibutyl phthalate (dbp)as plasticizer ,sodium tetra phenyl borate(natpb)and oleic acid as lipophilic salt and additive showed the bes...

objective(s): this paper describes coating of magnetite nanoparticles (mnps) with amorphous silica shells.   materials and methods: first, magnetite (fe3o4) nps were synthesized by co-precipitation method and then treated with stabilizer molecule of trisodium citrate to enhance their dispersibility. afterwards, coating with silica was carried out via a sol-gel approach in which the electrostati...

recent progress in nanotechnology and electrochemical methods can be applied to fine control of the size, crystal structure, and surface properties of iron oxide nanoparticles. here we appliedcathodic electrochemical deposition (ced) as an efficient and effective tactic for synthesisand double coating of surface of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (spions). in first step, bare fe3o4 n...
