Ajwain is one of the medicinal plants, which the highest composition is thymol, as a strong antioxidant respect to the obtained chromatograms of GC/MS. The antioxidant activity of the Ajwain is measured by square wave voltammetry method and cyclic voltammetry method and 2, 2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) method in at the specific concentrations of 1%, 1.5%, 2% and 2.5% and constant pH. The r...

We report on the synthesis of complexes hav ing two equiva lent redox active 2,5-dimethylazafe rrocenyl entities connected by heteroaryl (heteroaryl = thiophenyl, bithiophenyl and pyridyl) bridges. The new compounds have been investigated by various electrochemical techniques including cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and square wave voltammetry (SW) and were found ...

A portable vacuum interface allowing direct probing of the electrode-electrolyte interface was developed. A classical electrochemical system consisting of a gold working electrode, platinum counter electrode, platinum reference electrode, and potassium iodide electrolyte was used to demonstrate real-time observation of the gold iodide adlayer on the electrode and chemical species as a result of...

A redox species was extracted from water (50 x 10(-6) dm3) into a single micro-oil-droplet (30 x 10(-12) dm3) in contact with a microelectrode using microcapillary injection and manipulation techniques. Further, an in situ microanalysis of the solute in a single oil droplet was demonstrated by differential pulse voltammetry. The redox species of 10(-16) mol concentrated in the droplet could be ...

The electroreduction of the fullerene Cm in 1,2-dichlorobenzene (ODCB) and benzonitrile (PhCN) at a Pt electrode was studied by using scanning electrochemical microscopy and fast scan cyclic voltammetry. The former technique was employed for steady-state measurements in a thin-layer cell formed by an ultramicroelectrode tip and mercury pool substrate. The standard heterogeneous rate constants f...

Phenol oxidation in aqueous solutions was carried out in a pH range of 7-12 using cyclic votlammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) studies on a glassy carbon electrode. Peak potentials are found to be distinct for each pH value. A linear relationship is observed between the peak current and the concentration ranging from microto millimolar levels. The peak current is found to be...

ABSTRACT Polymeric polypyrrole and polythiophene solid phase microextraction (SPME) coatings were prepared using electropolymerization with a linear sweep voltammetry technique. Physicochemical properties were measured using different methods, in particular small angle X-ray scattering and scanning electron microscopy. By using innovative approaches for pore size measurement, we were able to ca...

Hybrid organic / inorganic films, composed of poly 4-aminoquinolidine (PAQ) matrix and Prussian blue – like copper hexacyanoferrate (CuHCFe) redox centers were prepared. Platinum disk (Pt) was used as a conductive substrate onto which the hybrid films (Pt/PAQ/CuHCFe) were electrodeposited by potential cycling. Electrochemical behavior of the modified electrode was well characterized using cycli...
