Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) reinforced with gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) and chitosan nanoparticles (CTSNPs) were anchored on a screen-printed electrode to fabricate a multi-walled structure for the detection of quinoline. The surface morphology of the nanocomposites and the modified electrode was examined by an ultra-high resolution field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM), and Fourier-tr...

Conductive flexible hydrogel composites were printed on paper substrates using a functional ink, whichwas designed and formulated for screen-printing. The inkswere prepared using abundant and eco-friendlymaterials by blending carbon fibers into thematrix of a water-soluble cellulose derivative, carboxymethyl cellulose. For an optimal concentration of carbon fibers (10wt.%), the printed patterns...

We present a rapid low-cost process for fabrication of screen-printed carbon thick-film strain sensors with 0.012% strain resolution. The sensors are suitable for implantation and designed specifically for strain or fullness measurements of the skin and bladder, respectively. Thick-film carbon paste sensors are screen-printed using an etched brass screen onto polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and enc...

Despite the many recent advances in disposable and wearable sensing technologies for point of care testing (POCT), few affordable, flexible, sensors are available detection tyrosine (Tyr), a valuable biomarker metabolic neurodegenerative diseases. In this regard, screen-printed electrodes on flexible substrates attractive. However, current approaches Tyr use rigid ceramic substrates, expensive ...

Two biosensors based on Trametes versicolor laccase (TvL) were developed for the determination of phenolic compounds. Commercial oxygen electrode and ferrocene-modified screen-printed graphite electrodes were used for preparation of laccase biosensors. The systems were calibrated for three phenolic acids. Linearity was obtained in the concentration range 0.1-1.0muM caffeic acid, 0.05-0.2muM fer...

The mediatorless electroanalytical sensing of sulfide is explored at a range of commercially available graphitic based electrodes namely, edge and basal plane pyrolytic graphite (EPPGE and BPPGE, respectively), boron-doped diamond (BDDE), glassy carbon (GCE) and screen-printed electrodes (SPE). The electrochemical performance is evaluated in terms of current density/analytical signal and oxidat...

Cobalt phthalocyanine (CoPc) films were deposited on the surface of a screen-printed carbon electrode using a simple drop coating method. The cyclic voltammogram of the resulting CoPc modified screen-printed electrode (CoPc/SPE) prepared under optimum conditions shows a well-behaved redox couple due to the (Co(I)/Co(II)) system. The CoPc/SPE surface demonstrates excellent electrochemical activi...

A high sensitive electrochemical nanostructure sensor based on graphene oxide/Fe3O4@SiO2 nanocomposite modified graphite screen printed electrode (GO/Fe3O4@SiO2/SPE) has been developed for trace analysis of acetaminophen. The electrochemical study of the modified electrode, as well as its efficiency for simultaneous voltammetric oxidation of acetaminophen and tryptophan is described. Compared w...

An electrochemical immunosensor modified with the streptavidin/biotin system on screen printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) for the detection of the dengue NS1 antigen was developed in this study. Monoclonal anti-NS1 capture antibody was immobilized on streptavidin-modified SPCEs to increase the sensitivity of the assay. Subsequently, a direct sandwich enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for...
