In this work we present a critical study of the nucleic acid layer immobilized at glassy carbon electrodes. Different studies were performed in order to assess the nature of the interaction between DNA and the electrode surface. The adsorption and electrooxidation of DNA demonstrated to be highly dependent on the surface and nature of the glassy carbon electrode. The DNA layer immobilized at a ...

a fast and simple voltammetric method for the determination of methimazole in pharmaceutical products was reported. a glassy carbon electrode was pretreated by anodization at +1.75 v (vs. sce) for 5 min, followed by potential cycling in the range of 0.3-1.3 v (20 cycles). the pretreated electrode showed an excellent electrocatalytic effect on the oxidation of methimazole. compared with untreate...

We report on a novel voltammetric detection of oxalic acid by using glassy carbon electrodes with covalently attached nitrogen-containing functional groups prepared by stepwise electrolysis. A glassy carbon electrode electrooxidized in an ammonium carbamate solution was electroreduced at -1.0 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) in 1.0 M sulfuric acid for a long time. We found that the electrocatalytic oxidation wa...

a sensor, based on multi-wall carbon nanotubes modified glassy carbon electrode (mwcnt/gce), was developed for determination of fenitrothion. determining the surface area of mwcnt/gce showed that this surface is three times more active than that of a glassy carbon electrode. the experimental parameters, such as the amount of mwcnts, ph of the fenitrothion solution, preconcentration potential an...

The cyclic voltammetry of both bulk manganese sulfate (BMS) and nano manganese sulfate (NMS) were studied using 0.1M KCl supporting electrolyte and glassy carbon working electrode. The redox behavior for both bulk (BMS) and MnSO4 (NMS) sulfate was studied voltammetrically in presence and absence of Doxorubicin (DR) using three electrodes system, silver- silver chloride (Ag/AgCl), pla...

In the present study, a type of graphitic mesoporous carbon (denoted as GMC) is synthesized and its structural properties were characterized by nitrogen physisorption isotherms, transmission electron microscopy and Raman spectroscopy. According to BET and BJH methods, the specific surface area (SBET) and the average pore diameter of GMC are estimated to be 720 m2/g and 3.4 nm, respectively....

We report on the electrochemical alteration of a nickel(II) bis-glyoximato complex into nickel-based nanoparticles at a glassy carbon electrode under acid reducing conditions. These particles show electrocatalytic activity towards hydrogen production at +410 mV compared to the bare glassy carbon electrode. Mechanistic insights are discussed based on DFT calculations.

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...

Electrochemical behaviour of acetaminophen at the multi wall carbon nanotubes/titanium dioxide (MWCNT/TiO2) composite film modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) via solvent casting method was studied. It is shown that the MWCNT/TiO2/GCE exhibits remarkable improvement in analytical response as compared to other electrodes. Comparing the responses of the MWCNT/TiO2/GCE with that obtained at the...

The electrochemical oxidation behavior of m-nitrophenol (m-NP) was studied comparatively on glassy carbon electrode, Pt electrode, PbO2 electrode, SnO2 electrode, and graphite electrode using cyclic voltammetry. The cyclic voltammetry measurements were performed in acidic (1 M H2SO4, pH 0.4), neutral (1 M Na2SO4, pH 6.8), and...
