Benznidazole is a drug used commonly as a therapeutic agent against Chagas' disease in Brazil. To clarify the cytotoxic action of benznidazole the electrochemical reduction of benznidazole has been investigated using a DNA-electrochemical biosensor, prepared by modification of a glassy carbon electrode with DNA, and the results compared with reduction at a bare glassy carbon electrode. The depe...

A simple and green chemistry protocol has been proposed based on the covalent anchoring of benzamide molecule on glassy carbon spheres through ball milling under solvent free condition. The modification proceeds through the formation of an amide bond between carboxylic group of glassy carbon spheres and the amino group of modifier molecule. The formation of covalent bond was ascertained using X...

A new electrochemical method for determination of imidacloprid using chronopotentiometry on thin film mercury and glassy carbon electrode was presented. The most important experimental parameters of chronopotentiometry were examined and optimized with respect to imidacloprid analytical signal. Imidacloprid provided well-defined reduction peak in Britton-Robinson buffer on thin film mercury elec...

BACKGROUND AND THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Different methods have been proposed to modify glassy carbon electrode in order to determine dopamine (DA), as one of the most important neurotransmitters in central nervous systems of mammalian. These methods are time comsuming and in some cases expensive. In this work, a very simple and cheap pretreatment method is developed for the bare glassy carbon e...

The redox behavior cobalt chloride was studied voltammetrically in presence and absence of L- Carrageenan (LK) natural polymer using glassy carbon electrodes in 0.1 M KCl supporting electrode. Scan rates are studied for the redox behaviors for CoCl2 alone or in presence of L- Carrageenan (LK) natural polymer. Stability constants for the interaction of cobalt ions with L - Carageenan (LK) natura...

Reduced graphene oxide film was synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode by electro reduction of graphene oxide powders in aqueous solution. Then platinum nano particles were deposited on reduced graphene oxide film that was deposited on the glassy carbon electrode via electro reduction of platinum salt. The Physical morphology of the platinum on reduced graphene oxide film was evaluated by sca...

Ž This paper describes fabrication techniques for the fabrication of glassy carbon microstructures. Molding of a resin of poly furfuryl . alcohol using elastomeric molds yields polymeric microstructures, which are converted to free-standing glassy carbon microstructures by Ž . Ž 2. heating T ;500–11008C under argon. This approach allows the preparation of macroscopic structures several mm with ...

IBA methods were applied to measure elemental depth profiles of precursors and superconducting MgB2 thin films deposited on glassy carbon (Good Fellows) and sapphire (Al2O3) substrates. For each type of substrates we obtained a pair of samples i.e. one amorphous precursor and one superconducting film which were then characterized. A He beam was used to bombard both, precursors and superconducti...

We investigated the electrochemical behavior of hemoglobin by glassy carbon electrode modified with Mn(2)O(3)-Ag nanofibers. The Mn(2)O(3)-Ag nanofibers were used as facilitator electron transfer between Hb and glassy-carbon-modified electrode. The Mn(2)O(3)-Ag nanofibers are studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The hemoglobin showed a quasir...
