This study presents a new nanotechnology application involving an ITO thin-film removal reuse process using an eccentric-form negative electrode, offering a fast removal rate from the surface of liquid crystal displays (LCDs). For the precision removal process, a small amount of eccentricity of the negative electrode or a higher rotational speed of the negative electrode corresponds to a higher...

The work described here comprises the determination of Fe(III) by ion selective potentiometry using a coated-wire ion-selective electrode (CWISE) based on iron–cyclam complex. Linear Nernstian response for this electrode was obtained over the total Fe(III) concentration range of 1× 10−2 to 1× 10−6 M in 0.05 M HNO3, H2SO4, HClO4, HCl, KNO3 and KCl media, with a slope of 60± 5 mV per decade chang...

The potentiometric response characteristics and analytical applications of a poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC)-free all-solid-state ion-selective electrode for chlorhexidine (CHX) are examined and compared to those of PVC-based solid-state electrode. The PVCfree electrode is prepared by direct incorporation of chlorhexidine-tetraphenyl borate (CHXTPB) as a sensing element into a commercial nail varnis...

Electrochemical or photo-electrochemical reactions in both electrospray ionization and laser desorption ionization are discussed stressing the role of the electrode reaction in influencing the ionization process. In particular, upon application of a high voltage during electrospray ionization, the emitter includes a working electrode, where redox reactions are observed, such as electro-generati...

Sequential injection system (SI system) was used for the pretreatment of a carbon electrode in an anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV) for the determination of arsenic (III). In this research, a screen-printed carbon electrode (SPCE) was used; SPCE was prepared in our laboratory by us. In ASV, SPCE was chosen as a working electrode because SPCE is less expensive, easy to use for a flow cell and s...

A simple procedure for the voltammetric detection of antioxidative activity of plant extracts based on the protection from DNA damage at the electrode surface is reported. A disposable electrochemical DNA biosensor fabricated as a carbon-based screen-printed electrode modified by a surface layer of the calf thymus double stranded (ds) DNA was used as a working electrode in combination with a si...

the adsorptive behavior of the immunosuppressive agent tacrolimus was studied by cyclic and differential-pulse voltammetry on a hanging mercury drop electrode (hmde). the drug was accumulated at hmde and two well-defined peak currents were obtained at -1353 and -1417 mv vs . sce (saturated kcl) in borate buffer (ph 10.0) + 0.1 kcl solution. a voltammetric procedure was developed for the determi...

This paper aims at the study of Pt electrode ability to act as working electrode in cyclic voltammetric sulphite assay. The analytical signal is represented by the intensity measured for the voltammetric peak, that corresponds to analyte anodic oxidation. The measured peak intensity depends linearly on sulphite concentration within the range 0.031 g/L – 4 g/L. The assay is characterized by a li...

A micro glucose sensor consisting of an interdigitated array gold microelectrode was developed. The interdigitated array structure, which has 10 microns band width and 10 microns band gap, was fabricated in a small region (2.5 x 5 mm2) on a quartz substrate. Glucose oxidase was chemically fixed onto the electrode surface through self-assembled monolayer of 11-mercaptoundecanoic acid; ferrocenea...

Fabrication and electrochemical characterization of disposable working electrodes/transducers of electrochemical sensors is described in this work. The aim was to find the best electrochemical properties of screen-printed electrode substrates modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) based active layers. Two types of platinum electrode contacts were investigated and the suitable thick...
