Electrotherapy with low-level direct current has been suggested as an effective regional cancer treatment. A great variety of electrode materials, their placement with respect to tumor (i.e. electrode configurations) current levels and therapeutic schedules have been employed to date. In our paper the impact of electrode materials and configurations was studied, employing the same treatment par...

In this study, we describe a novel solid-state thin-film Ag/AgCl reference electrode (SSRE) that was coated with a protective layer of graphene oxide (GO). This layer was prepared by drop casting a solution of GO on the Ag/AgCl thin film. The potential differences exhibited by the SSRE were less than 2 mV for 26 days. The cyclic voltammograms of the SSRE were almost similar to those of a commer...

the conditional formal potential, e°′of methyldopa has been studied by cyclic voltammetry at the surface of activated glassy carbon electrode (agce) as the working electrode in different ph phosphate buffered solutions. the experimental standard redox potential, e°′, of methyldopa is obtained to be 0.72 mv versus she (standard hydrogen electrode). e°′ values have also been calculated with the a...

this paper describes the development, electrochemical characterization and utilization of novel modified molybdenum (vi) complex-carbon nanotube paste electrode for the electrocatalytic determination of ascorbic acid (aa). the electrochemical profile of the proposed modified electrode was analyzed by cyclic voltammetry (cv) that showed a shift of the oxidation peak potential of aa about 235 mv ...

abstract the graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode was fabricated and used to determine amlodipine besylate. in 0.1 m ph 7.3 phosphate buffer solutions, the redox peak currents of amlodipine besylate increased significantly at graphene–chitosan composite film modified glassy carbon electrode compared with bare electrode and chitosan modified glassy carbon electrode, ...

An electrochemical technique has been applied to enhance the removal of a common herbicide (bentazone) from aqueous solutions using an activated carbon cloth as electrode. A pH increase from acidic to basic reduces the uptake, with capacities going from 127 down to 80 mg/g at pH 2 and 7, respectively. Increasing the oxygen content of the carbon cloth causes a decrease in the bentazone loading c...

A method was developed for determining pH differences across cell membranes using a methylammonium-selective membrane electrode, based on monitoring of the pH gradient-induced uptake of methylammonium in situ. The methylammonium electrode was constructed using calix[6]arene-hexaacetic acid hexaethyl ester as a neutral carrier and bis(2-ethylhexyl) sebacate as a membrane solvent in a poly(vinyl ...

[5,10,15,20-Tetrakis(4-N,N-dimethylaminobenzene)porphyrinato]Mn(III) acetate (MnTDPAc) was applied as an ionophore for an iodide-selective PVC membrane electrode. The influences of the membrane composition, pH of the test solution and foreign ions on the electrode performance were investigated. The sensor exhibited not only excellent selectivity to iodide ion compared to Cl- and lipophilic anio...

Water contamination is a main inducement of human diseases. It is an important step to monitor the water quality in the water distribution system. Due to the features of large size, high cost, and complicated structure of traditional water determination sensors and devices, it is difficult to realize real-time water monitoring on a large scale. In this paper, we present a multi-parameter sensor...
