the electrocatalytic oxidation of captopril (cap) was studied by modified carbon nanotubes paste electrode in the presence of isoproterenol (ispt) using cyclic voltammetry (cv), chronoamperometry and square wave voltammetry (swv). also, the values of catalytic rate constant (k), and electron transfer coefficient (α) for cap were calculated. the mechanism of ca electrochemical behavior at the mo...

polypyrrole (ppy) nanofibers have been fabricated on glassy carbon electrode (gce) usingelectrochemical technique. electropolymerization of pyrrole (py) for the fabrication of ppy nanofiberswas occurred on gce by applying a fixed potential of about 0.85 v for 120 sec in a mild basic solutioncontaining sodium carbonate and sodium perchlorate. in the mild basic media, the monomer, py, isoxidized ...

copper nanoparticles were fabricated by electro-reduction of cuso4solution in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctab) cationic surfactant as an additive through potentiostatic method. the prepared copper nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem) and electrochemical methods. the sem images reveal that the nanoparticles with diameters at about 70 n...

in this research, an enzyme modified electrode has been produced during the electropolymerization of aniline through incorporation of sulfite oxidase into a conducting polymer. then the bioelectrochemical response of resulted sulfite biosensor was investigated at different experimental conditions. study of  the stability of the resulted sulfite biosensor revealed that formation of a passive fil...

BACKGROUND Monitoring of electrode resistance during tDCS is considered important for tolerability and safety. Conventional resistance measurement methods do not isolate individual electrode resistance and for HD-tDCS devices, cross talk across electrodes makes concurrent resistance monitoring unreliable. OBJECTIVE We propose a novel method to monitor individual electrode resistance during tD...

The reliability of different electrode admittance equations in the case of the Ag/Ag I electrode is critically discussed. It is shown that the admittance equation already derived for the' metal arnalgam/metal-Ion reversible electrode reaction coupled with reactant adsorption offers some advantages compared to the admittance equation for the reversible electrode reaction on the metal/metal-ion e...

A carbon Paste electrode modified with cobalt (II) phthalocyanine (CoPC) was used as a sensitive potentiometric sensor for determination of ascorbic acid in aqueous solutions. The potential response of the electrode is a linear function of ascorbic acid concentration over the range 5 10 to 10 M (?1- 1800 µg ML ) with a Nernstian slope of 56 mV at pH 7. The limit of detection was 0.2 µg ...

As the size of quartz resonator continues to shrink, beveling of the plano-plano quartz crystal is needed to reduce mounting loss and to sustain energy trapping so to have low motional resistance for oscillation. The beveling process though is time consuming and difficult to control for small size and low frequency quartz crystals. In recent years, studies on stepped electrode (a.k.a bi-mesa el...

Thirteen patients with faecal incontinence and 26 control subjects were studied to investigate whether a quantitative electromyographic (EMG) signal could be correlated to anal manometry. Three different electrodes were used--a concentric needle electrode, a disposable sponge electrode, and a hard anal plug electrode. The maximum amplitude of the EMG recording was used as a quantitative paramet...
