in the present paper, the use of a novel carbon paste electrode modified by 7,8-dihydroxy-3,3,6-trimethyl-3,4-dihydrodibenzo[b,d]furan-1(2h)-one (dtd) and oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (ocnts) is described for determination of levodopa (ld), acetaminophen (ac) and tryptophan (trp) by a simple and rapid method. at first, the electrochemical behavior of dtd is studied, then, the mediated...

in order to study the cu(ii) ion selective electrode, an optimized membrane was prepared by mixing of 30 mg of pvc powdered, 5 mg of considered ionophore, 60 mg of plasticizer and 5 mg of additive. the sensor showed a near nernstian response for cu(ii) ions over a concentration range from 1.0×0-6 –1.0×0-2 m with a slope of 28.90.5 mv per concentration decade with a working ph range of 3.5-6.3. ...

the electrochemical behavior of a modified carbon paste electrode (mcpe) with n,n′ethylenbis(salicylideneiminato)copper(ii) complex ([cu(ii)-salen]) was investigated as a newsensor for cystein. the britton-robinson buffer with ph 5, 10% modifier in electrode, potentialscanning rate of 20 mvs-1 and puls height of 50 mv were used as the optimum condition for thedetermination of cysteine using car...

An electrochemical aptasensor for detection of trace amounts of aflatoxin M1 was developed. This required immobilization of aptamer on screen printed gold electrode comprising of working electrode, counter electrode and reference electrode and was achieved by sequentially layering dithiodipropionic acid, streptavidin and biotinylated-tetraethylene glycol-aptamer. Immobilization of aptamer was m...

In this research, a coated graphite electrode was constructed for determination of Mg2+ in pharmaceutical supplements. The designed sensor demonstrates an ideal Nernstian slope (30.1 mV. Decade-1) over a wide concentration range (1×10-6- 1×10-1 Mol L-1). The selectivity of the sensor was evaluated over 16 different cations by matched potential method and no serious interference was observed fro...

A chemically modified carbon paste electrode with multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) was prepared and used as a sensor for Cu2+  ion. The unique chemical and physical properties of CNT have paved the way  to  new  and  improved  sensing  devices.  A  central  composite chemometrics  design  was  applied  for  multivariate  optimization  of the  effects  of  three  significant  parameters  (...

in this study, removal of methylene blue by electro-coagulation method using aluminum and iron electrodes was investigated. the influence of the operating parameters such as contact time, current density, anode type, inter-electrodes distance, initial and final ph and energy consumption rate was determined. dye removal was increased with increases in solution ph, current density and contact tim...

In this research, a PVC membrane electrode for Manganese (II) ions based on N-(2-Picolinamidoethyl)Picolinamide as neutral carrier was prepared. The electrode exhibits a Nemstian responseover Mn(II) concentration range of (1.0 x10-5 t01.0 X 10-1M) with a slope of 29.3±0.5 mV perdecade of concentration with a working pH range of 4.0-9.0. It has a fast response time (

A simple thermodynamic theory of the equilibrium potentials of membrane electrodes is formulated and applied to the glass electrode for measurement of pH. The new formulation assumes the selective adsorption or binding of specific ions on the surface of the membrane which may or may not be permeable to the ion, and includes the conventional derivation based on reversible ion transport across me...
