In this work, we have designed and developed a novel and cost effective virtual electrochemical analyzer for the measurement of NO in exhaled breath and from hydrogen peroxide stimulated endothelial cells using home-made potentiostat. Here, data acquisition system (NI MyDAQ) was used to acquire the data from the electrochemical oxidation of NO mediated by copper, zinc superoxide dismutase (Cu,Z...

Mg alloys have a vast usage where weight reduction is really significant since they do the features really well for materials of ultra-light weight. However, Mg is inherently a reactive metal and its alloys generally possess quite weak corrosion resistance that widely restricts their technological usages, especially in some rough service conditions. Despite, many investigations on the passive a...

fundamentally important to the brain in physiology and clinical pathologies, such as ischemia and hypoxia. The degree of interrelation of these compounds extends beyond physiology. This is illustrated by the fact that all three compounds are regularly assayed by the electrochemical measurement of H202, the product of the reaction of each of these compounds with their respective oxidase enzyme (...

PVP polymers containing Li or Ag Ions have been synthesized in good stability and transparency by using the solution casting method. Their structural, optical, thermal and electrical properties have been investigated from the measurement of XRD, FTIR, SEM, EDAX, optical absorption spectra, TG-DTA profiles and impedance spectral features in order to evaluate their potentialities for their use in...

Using the Toronto Diabetic Neuropathy Expert Group-2010 classification of diabetic peripheral neuropathy (DPN), 89% of patients with newly diagnosed type2 diabetes had either confirmed or subclinical-DPN, hence at increased risk of foot complications. Sudomotor-dysfunction (SMD) assessed through electrochemical skin-conductance measurement was present in51.1%. SMD has 73% sensitivity and 81% NP...

We describe an electrochemical analog of fluorescence polarization that supports the quantitative measurement of a specific protein, the chemokine IP-10, directly in undiluted blood serum. The sensor is label-free, wash-free, and electronic, suggesting it could support point-of-care detection of diagnostic proteins in largely unprocessed clinical samples.

A novel device combining electrochemical and colorimetric detection is developed for the rapid measurement of 8-hydroxy-2'-deoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), a DNA oxidative damage biomarker. The device takes advantage of the speed and low cost of the conventional strip test as well as the high reliability and accuracy of the electrochemical assay. Competitive immunoreactions were performed on the latera...
