The direct electrochemistry of catalase (Ct) was accomplished at a gold electrode modified with single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNTs). A pair of well-defined redox peaks was obtained for Ct with the reduction peak potential at 0.414 Vand a peak potential separation of 32 mVat pH 5.9. Both reflectance FT-IR spectra and the dependence of the reduction peak current on the scan rate revealed that Ct...

An electronic nanoswitch is described based on the conformational change of the DNA sequence in the presence of stabilizing ligands. The new electrochemical biosensor was prepared by modifying a screen-printed graphite electrode (SPE) with functionalized SiO2 nanoparticles [(SiO2-N-propylpiperazine-N-(2-mercaptopropane-1-one) (SiO2@NPPNSH)] and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs). These nanoparticles are ...

A modified electrode was prepared by modification of the carbon paste electrode (CPE) with graphene nano-sheets. The fabricated modified electrode exhibited an electrocatalytic activity toward gallic acid (GA) oxidation because of good conductivity, low electron transfer resistance and catalytic effect. The graphene modified CPE had a lower overvoltage and enhanced electrical current respect to...

A new carbon paste electrode (CPE) incorporating Ru - nanoparticles (RuNP) stabilized on graphite powder was developed for H(2)O(2) amperometric detection. Cyclic voltammetric measurements, performed in phosphate buffer solutions at different potential scan rates and different potential ranges were carried out in order to evaluate the electrochemical behavior of the CPE-RuNP modified electrodes...
