Tris-1,10-phenanthroline manganese(II) complex was synthesized by microwave irradiation. The synthesized complex was characterized by UV-visible and FT-IR spectroscopy. Its electrochemical behaviour was examined by cyclic voltammetry (CV). The tris-1,10-phenanthroline manganese(II) complex was used for the electrochemical sensing of catechol. The manganese ion gets reduced as the oxidation of c...

In this study, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), gold nanoparticles (GNPs) and Prussian Blue (PB) were used for modifying glassy carbon working electrode (GCE) to construct acetylcholinesterase (AChE) biosensor respectively. Chitosan membrane was used for immobilizing AChE through glutaraldehyde cross-linking attachment to recognize pesticides selectively. Before the detection, the enzyme...

This study demonstrates the use of a selective and sensitive voltammetric sensor for determination of acetaminophen (AC). This was  performed by modifying a glassy carbon electrode with composite film of poly(4-vinylpyridine) and graphene sheet (P4VP/GR-GCE). The redox peak currents of AC increased significantly at P4VP/GR-GCE. The result was achieved by the synergistic effect of combined elect...

The redox behavior for bulk and nano silver nitrate (NSN) were studied by cyclic voltammetry technique in absence and presence of cefdinir antibiotic (CFD) using glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in 0.1 M KNO3 as supporting electrolyte at two different temperatures. Scan rates were studied for the redox reactions of bulk and nano silver nitrate (NSN) in absence and presence of cefdinir antibiotic (...

A sensitive and selective differential pulse stripping voltammetric (DPSV) method is presented for the determination of trace amount Cr(III) using glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs).

A simple and sensitive electrochemical sensor fabricated with graphene nanosheets (GNs) and a hydroxyapatite (HA) nanocomposite-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was developed for the determination of matrine (MT). The as-prepared electrode (GNs/HA/GCE) was verified to outperform bare a GCE and GNs-modified electrode with increased oxidation peak currents and the decreased over-potential i...

Abstract This work reports on the electroanalytical performance of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with antimony and bismuth (Sb/Bi‐GCE) in detecting heavy metal ions using lead cadmium as model analytes. The Sb/Bi‐GCE surface was compared to (Bi‐GCE) well (Sb‐GCE). exhibited excellent figures merit Bi‐GCE Sb‐GCE surfaces. For example, limit detection for 0.01 ppb 0.1 1 Sb‐GCE, respect...

In this study, Nd-doped cobalt oxide (Nd-Co3O4) nanoparticles were prepared by a combustion synthesis procedure using Co(acac)3 complex. The nanoparticles were characterized by infrared spectroscopy (IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). Then, the effect of Nd-Co3O4 ...

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...

Direct electrochemistry of glucose oxidase (GOD) was achieved when an ionic liquid/GOD-Polyhydroxy-C60 functional membrane was confined on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The cyclic voltammograms (CVs) of the modified GCE showed a pair of redox peaks with a formal potential (E°') of - 329 ± 2 mV. The heterogeneous electron transfer constant (k(s)) was 1.43 s-1. The modified GCE response to glu...
