surface oxidized carbon vulcane xc-72 is prepared as catalyst support and platinumnanoparticles are chemically anchored onto the modified surface. the nanoparticles of pt weresynthesized by reduction of h2ptcl6 with sodium borohydride in a 5.5 m buffer solution ofsodium citrate; the complexation of citrate with metal ions is beneficial to the formation ofnanoparticles. the electro-oxidation of ...

Organophosphorus (OP) forms an important class of toxic compounds. They inhibit acetyl cholinesterase (AChE, EC 3.1.1.7) that results in respiratory and myocardial malfunctions. Pesticides could be accumulated in vegetables and fruits, so detection of them is very important. The goals of this study are decreasing detection time and detection limit of methyl parathion bioprobe. In this research ...

A new silver nanoparticle modified screen-printed electrode was developed and applied to the simultaneous determination of Pb(II) and Cu(II). Two different types of silver nanoparticles with different shapes and sizes, Ag nanoseeds and Ag nanoprisms, were microscopically characterized and three different carbon substrates, graphite, graphene and carbon nanofibers, were tested. The best analytic...

in this work, spherical pt nanometer-scale particles supported on the poly (m-toluidine)/triton x-100 film modified carbon nanotube paste electrode (pt/pmt (tx-100)/mcntpe) was used as a potent catalyst for electrooxidation of formaldehyde (hcho) in both 0.5 m h2so4 and 0.1 m naoh solutions. the obtained results showed that utilization of tx-100 as an additive during the electropolymerization p...

Nanostructured hematite thin films are doped with zirconium successfully and also modified by introducing CNT using sol-gel method for their implementation as photo-electrode in photo-electrochemical (PEC) cell for hydrogen generation. XRD, UV-visible spectroscopy and PEC study techniques are used to characterize the thin films. The PEC responses of thin films are improved by introducing carbon...

Electrochemical oxidation of quercetin, as an important biological molecule, has been studied in non-aqueous media using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. To investigate the electrochemical properties of quercetin, an important flavonoid derivative, on a different surface, a new glassy carbon electrode has been developed using dithiooxa...

Objective: The annual incidence of cancer in the world is growing rapidly. The most important factor in the cure of cancers is their early diagnosis. miRNA, as a biomarker for early detection of cancer, has attracted a lot of attention. Methods: In this study, an electrochemical biosensor was developed to detect the amount of miR-106a, the biomarker of gastric cancer, by modifying a glass...

A Nafion-modified glassy carbon electrode incorporated with tobramycin for the voltammetric stripping determination of Cu2+ has been explored. The electrode was fabricated by tobramycin containing Nafion on the glassy carbon electrode surface. The modified electrode exhibited a significantly increased sensitivity and selectivity for Cu2+ compared with a bare glassy carbon electrode and the Nafi...

2-Amino-N-benzthioazolyl benzamide (ABTB) was synthesized, characterized and used for thefabrication of a potentiometric sensor for Cu2+ metal ions. The electrode exhibits linear response to Cu(II) over a wide concentration range (4.79×10 -8 – 1.85×10 -1 M) with Nernstian slope of 30 ± 1.5 mVper decade. The electrode can be used in the pH range from 2 to 9. It has a fast response time of about1...

a carbon ionic liquid electrode (cile) modified with tio2-fe nanoparticles was constructed by incorporating tio2-fe nanoparticles into the paste matrix. under the optimized experimental conditions, using differential pulse voltammetry (dpv), the oxidation of thiocyanate and oxalate were occurred at potentials of 0.740 v and 1.010 v, respectively, at the surface of the modified electrode. observi...
