The potential range of the transition region between the diffusion-limited reduction to oxidation of hydrogen peroxide depends strongly on the nature of the cation of the supporting alkaline electrolyte. Non-covalent interactions between the hydrated alkali metal cations and chemisorbed OH species on platinum influence the potential-dependent reaction kinetics.

Transgenic alfalfa (Medicago sativa) expressing Mn-superoxide dismutase cDNA tended to have reduced injury from water-deficit stress as determined by chlorophyll fluorescence, electrolyte leakage, and regrowth from crowns. A 3-year field trial indicated that yield and survival of transgenic plants were significantly improved, supporting the hypothesis that tolerance of oxidative stress is impor...

the voltammetric behaviour of sulfadoxine (sdn) was studied at a glassy carbon electrode in 0.2 m phosphate buffer solutions using cyclic, differential-pulse (dpv) and square wave voltammetry (swv). the dependence of the current on ph, concentration, and scan rate was investigated to optimize the experimental conditions for the determination of sdn. the oxidation process was shown to be diffusi...

The range of salts used as supporting electrolytes in electrochemical studies of redox proteins and enzymes varies widely, with the choice of an electrolyte relying on the assumption that the electrolyte used does not affect the electrochemical properties of the proteins and enzymes under investigation. Examination of the electrochemical properties of the redox protein cytochrome c (cyt c) at a...

a new schiff base 2-aminothiophenol furfural self assembled monolayer (sam) has been fabricated on a bare gold electrode as a novel sensor for determination of dopamine. electrochemical impedance spectroscopywas utilized to investigate the properties of the au 2-aminothiophenol furfural self assembled monolayermodified electrode (au atf sam-me) using the [fe(cn)6]3-/4- redox couple. the electro...

This study was performed to investigate the electrochemical oxidation of a solution containing methylene blue dye by using a tin oxide (SnO2) electrode. The effect of several operating factors such as electrolyte types, current density, initial dye concentration, and pH were investigated by following the discolorationand COD removal. The results show th...

We herein report that the regioselective anodic fluorination of S-alkyl benzothioate and its derivatives in various aprotic solvents using Et3N·nHF (n = 3-5) and Et4NF·nHF (n = 3-5) as supporting electrolyte and a fluorine source successfully provided the corresponding α-fluorinated products in moderate yields. Dichloromethane containing Et4NF·4HF was found to be the most suitable combination a...

Silicon is known to ameliorate the deleterious effects of drought on plant growth. We evaluated growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L. CV. Chamran) under Water-Deficit Stress Induced by Polyethylene Glycol as affected by Si application. In this article, the effects of Si (as potassium silicate) on some parameters related to growth, chlorophyll concentration relative water content (RWC), electrol...
