2-amino-n-benzthioazolyl benzamide (abtb) was synthesized, characterized and used for thefabrication of a potentiometric sensor for cu2+ metal ions. the electrode exhibits linear response to cu(ii) over a wide concentration range (4.79×10 -8 – 1.85×10 -1 m) with nernstian slope of 30 ± 1.5 mvper decade. the electrode can be used in the ph range from 2 to 9. it has a fast response time of about1...

Carbon paste electrode modified with cobalt impregnated zeolite was prepared by mixing of cobalt_zeolite (Co_Z) and graphite powder with different percent. The electrochemical oxidation of cefixime at such electrodes was investigated using the cyclic voltammetric and amperometric techniques. It is not electrochemically active towards cefixime oxidation in 0.1 M phosphate buffer solution (pH=7) ...

This study describes a systematic approach of TiO2/carbon black nanoparticles with respect to the loading amount in order to optimize the catalytic ability of triiodide reduction for dye-sensitized solar cells. In particular, the cell using an optimized TiO2 and carbon black electrode presents an energy conversion efficiency of 7.4% with a 5:1 ratio of a 40-nm TiO2 to carbon black. Based on the...

In this work a new chemically modified carbon paste electrode was constructed for accurate, simple, sensitive and selective determination of molybdenum (VI) ions. The results of modified electrode by an ion imprinted polymer were compared with those obtained with carbon paste electrode. The results showed the stripping peak currents had a dramatic increase at the modified electrode. Under the o...

Carbon paste electrode was modified by disodium 2,4-diamino-7-methylbenzo[g] pteridine-5,10-dioxide to fabricate a sensor for potentiometric determination of vanadyl ion (VO2+) in aqueous medium. The new ligand was synthesized in three steps with high yield. The optimal composition of the carbon paste was made of graphite powder (64.5%), ionophore (16.6%), paraffin oil (17.8%), a...

This study presents design of a carbon silicon electrode for iontophorsis treatment towards alopecia. The alopecia is a medical description means loss of hair from the body. For solving this problem, the drug need to be delivered into the scalp, therefore, the iontophoresis was chosen to use in this treatment. However, almost common electrodes of iontophoresis device are made with metal materia...

A carbon sphere-modified glass carbon electrode was prepared by employing cyclohexanol as a solvent to disperse the carbon spheres efficiently. The resulting electrode exhibits excellent sensitivity to cadmium(II), and a detection limit of 10(-10) mol/L has been obtained, which is one order of magnitude lower than those obtained by other electrodes. Along with immunity from interference of othe...

Rapid and facile preparation of the cheap modified electrode materials is an important parameter in development of the efficient electrochemical sensor for industrial scale production and mass-market usage. In the present work, the carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was prepared for sensitive determination of lead (Pb) ion in the presence of bismuth (Bi)...
