Electron transfer in biological systems is one of the leading areas in the biochemical and biophysical sciences, and in recent years there has been considerable interest in the direct electron transfer between redox proteins and electrode surfaces. However in the absence of mediating small molecules, the observation of well defined electrochemical behaviour of immobilized flavoprotein oxidase s...

Electrochemical performance of the ferrocene (Fc) redox-labeled RNA aptamer based sensor for theophylline (Th) is essentially inhibited in serum, but is restored in serum-free buffer solutions. This phenomenon is inconsistent with the data on methylene-blue-labeled aptamer beacon systems, which operational potential window is more negative compared to the Fc redox label. Electrochemical studies...

Dye-sensitized solar cell (DSC) redox shuttles other than triiodide/iodide have exhibited significantly higher charge transfer resistances at the dark electrode. This often results in poor fill factor, a severe detriment to device performance. Rather than moving to dark electrodes of untested materials that may have higher catalytic activity for specific shuttles, the surface area of platinum d...

By using ionic liquid 1-hexylpyridinium hexafluorophosphate (HPPF6) based carbon ionic liquid electrode (CILE) as the substrate electrode, a CoMoO4 nanorods and myoglobin (Mb) composite was casted on the surface of CILE with chitosan (CTS) as the film forming material to obtain the modified electrode (CTS/ CoMoO4-Mb/CILE). Spectroscopic results indicated that Mb retained its native structures w...

Highly reversible oxygen redox chemistry of Li 2 RuO 3 enabled by a stabilizing electrode–electrolyte interphase with sulfide solid electrolyte.

Glassy carbon (GC) is the most commonly used carbon-based electrode in the analytical laboratory. Because of the high background current and low electrode response, modification of this electrode can be done by various materials and techniques. An ionic liquid (IL), 1-methyl-3-(3-trimethoxysilyl propyl) imidazoliumbis (trifluoromethylsulfonyl) imide, was covalently cross linked onto the GC surf...

a new hydroxylamine sensor has been fabricated by immobilizing oxadiazol denvative at the surface ol aglassy carbon electrode (gce) modified by multi-wall carbon nanotube (mivcnt). the adsorbed thin illms oroxadiazol derivative on the mwcnt modified gce show a pair of peaks with surface confined characierisnus.the oxadiazol derivative mwcni (omwcnt) modified gce shows highly catalytic activity ...

Electrochemical sensors are widely used for rapid and accurate measurement of blood glucose and can be adapted for detection of a wide variety of analytes. Electrochemical sensors operate by transducing a biological recognition event into a useful electrical signal. Signal transduction occurs by coupling the activity of a redox enzyme to an amperometric electrode. Sensor specificity is either a...

A simple and novel supramolecular hydrogel was prepared from ferrocene (Fc) modified amino acid phenylalanine (F) and utilized as electrochemical immunosensing platform for the detection of human IgG. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) characterization indicated that the hydrogel is composed of fibrils with diameter around 50-100 nm and length extend to 1mm. When the prepared hydrogel was react...

Transparent and stretchable energy storage devices have attracted significant interest due to their potential to be applied to biocompatible and wearable electronics. Supercapacitors that use the reversible faradaic redox reaction of conducting polymer have a higher specific capacitance as compared with electrical double-layer capacitors. Typically, the conducting polymer electrode is fabricate...
