Electroanalytical (voltammetric, polarographic, chronoamperometric) methods on an Hg electrode were applied for studying of different sulfur compounds in model and natural water systems (anoxic lakes, waste water, rain precipitation, sea-aerosols). In all investigated samples typical HgS reduction voltammetric peak, characteristic for many different reduced sulfur species (RSS: sulfide, element...

Submit Manuscript | http://medcraveonline.com immense number of publications appeared dealing mainly with the determination of the four “classical” metals easily accessible by inverse voltammetry on mercury electrodes, i.e., Zn, Cd, Pb and Cu. Along with such prosperity in voltammetry also potentiometry slipped into its golden age with the development of new ion selective membranes for many of ...

Determination of inorganic phosphate is of very high importance in environmental and health care applications. Hence knowledge of suitable analytical techniques available for phosphate sensing for different applications becomes essential. Electrochemical methods for determining inorganic phosphate have several advantages over other common techniques, including detection selectivity, stability a...

Layer-by-layer (LbL) deposition is a convenient technique for the formation of ultra thin nanocomposite layers containing metallic nanoparticles (NPs) and conducting polymers (CPs). The advantages of this approach for producing composite layers suitable for electroanalytical applications are discussed. Examples of electroanalytical applications of LbL-deposited composites are presented. Composi...

The use of an electrochemically based probe for in situ determination of heavy metals in groundwater is described. The in situ probe, consisting of a microlithographically fabricated iridium ultramicroelectrode array sensor (UMEA), a custom-built miniaturized potentiostat and microcontroller, is connected to a laptop computer for control and data acquisition. The utility of this probe for rapid...

This review addresses recent developments in electrochemistry and electroanalytical chemistry of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). CNTs have been proved to possess unique electronic, chemical and structural features that make them very attractive for electrochemical studies and electrochemical applications. For example, the structural and electronic properties of the CNTs endow them with distinct electr...

Here, we report on carbon nanotube paper-based electroanalytical devices. A highly aligned-carbon nanotube (HA-CNT) array, grown using chemical vapor deposition (CVD), was processed to form bi-layered paper with an integrated cellulose-based Origami-chip as the electroanalytical device. We used an inverse-ordered fabrication method from a thick carbon nanotube (CNT) sheet to a thin CNT sheet. A...

The present review article presents and discusses automated sequential injection (SI) based methods for the determination of pharmaceutically and biologically important thiols, namely cysteine, N-acetylcysteine, penicillamine, glutathione and captopril. The review intends to cover a range of ten years of published research on this topic (2000 – 2009). The methods are classified according to the...
