Electrochemical behavior of I-hydroxypyridine-2-thione and its vanadium complex is studied using polarographic techniques. Polarograms of ligand and that of the complex is shown with diffusion characteristics of the waves. Cyclic voltagram of thione is investigated which shows that a reversible oxidation reduction of one electron process is taking place. PKa of the thione is found to be in ...

The review article discusses the current status and recent findings of our investigations on the synthesis and characterization of carbon-supported PtRuMo electrocatalysts for direct alcohol fuel cells.

Nucleic acid amplification is a gold standard technique for analyzing a tiny amount of nucleotides in molecular biology, clinical diagnostics, food safety, and environmental testing. Electrical and electrochemical monitoring of the amplification process draws attention over conventional optical methods because of the amenability toward point-of-care applications as there is a growing demand for...

Article can be accessed online on: www.ijpsr.com ABSTRACT: The determination of drugs in pharmaceutical preparations and biological fluids is of pivotal importance in the pharmaceutical and medical sciences. Successful analysis requires sensitivities at ppb level or even less in biological fluids with high selectivity and minimal interferences from various artifacts. Till recently, biopharmaceu...

In this study, electrochemical behaviour of passive films formed on AISI 316L stainless steel (AISI 316L) in three acidic solutions concentrations (0.3, 0.6, and 0.9M HNO3) under open circuit potential conditions were evaluated by potentiodynamic polarization, Mott–Schottky analysis and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) techniques. The potentiodynamic polarization results showed that...

Controlled silicon structures on the micron to nanometer order have received much attention owing to their potential applications in various fields such as electrochemical, optoelectrical, and biological sciences. Although the techniques commonly used in fabricating nano-/microstructured silicon are conventional lithographic techniques using a resist mask with an optical, electron, or X-ray bea...

The performance and durability of electrochemical power systems are determined by a complex interdependency of many complex and interrelated factors, temperature and heat transfer being particularly important. This has led to an increasing interest in the use of thermal imaging to understand both the fundamental phenomena and effects of operation on the temperature distribution and dynamics in ...

Even though significant progress has been made in the development of electrodes for the in vivo detection of catecholamines, oxygen, and various cations, there has been little research on the feasibility of continuously monitoring drugs in whole blood by electrochemical sensing devices. Electroanalytical problems associated with the development of such electrochemical transducers include the ne...

A new sensitive and selective electrochemical sensor was developed for determination of glutathione (GSH) at the surface of carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) as a sensor and pyrogallol red (PGR) as a mediator. The mechanism of GSH electrochemical behavior at the modified electrode surface was investigated by various electrochemical techniques includ...
