The equilibrium reduction potential of the 2[4Fe-4S] ferredoxin (Fd) isolated from four different bacterial strains was determined at a methyl viologen-modified gold electrode using square wave voltammetry. The observed reduction potential at pH 8 for Clostridium thermoaceticum Fd was -385 mV; Clostridium pasteurianum, -393 mV; Clostridium thermosaccharolyticum, -408 mV; and Chromatium vinosum,...

Nuclear waste repositories are being installed in deep excavated rock formations in some places in Europe to isolate and store radioactive waste. In France, the Callovo-Oxfordian formation (COx) is a possible candidate for nuclear waste storage. This work investigates the applicability of CeO(2)-based oxides (CeO(2), Ce(0.8)Sm(0.2)O(2) and Ce(0.8)Zr(0.2)O(2)) for monitoring the pH of the COx po...

al3+-potentiometric sensor, based on (2z) -methyl 2- ((z) (p-tolylimino)-3-ethyl -4-oxothiazolidin -5- ylidene) acetate (mteoy) as a neutral ionophore, was successfully developed for the detectionof al3+ in aqueous solutions. the electrode responds to al3+ ion with a sensitivity of 19.8 ± 0.1 mv/decade over the range 1.0 x 10-8- 1.0 x 10-1 mol lt' and in a ph range of 3.0-9.0. the electrodeshow...

in the present work, an efficient modified carbon-ceramic electrode by multi-walled carbon nanotubes/ionic liquid nanocomposite (mwcnts/il/cce) was prepared through a simple and repeatable procedure. the introduced modified electrode was used for the study of the electrochemical behaviour and determination of tryptophan (trp) in the presence of uric acid (ua) using cyclic voltammetry (cv), diff...

in this work poly eriochrome black t (ebt) was electrochemically synthesized on the glassy carbon electrode as electrode modifier. on the modified electrode, voltammetric behavior of isoniazid (inh) was investigated. the poly (ebt)-modified glassy carbon electrode has excellent electrocatalytic ability for the electrooxidation of isoniazid. this fact was appeared as a reduced overpotential of i...

N-(2H-[1,2,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-a]pyridine-2-ylidene)benzamide was used as a selective sensing material in the PVC membrane to construction of a new chromium ion selective electrode. This liquid membrane electrode worked well with a Nernstian response of 19.7 ±0.4 mV decade-1 of Cr(III) in a wide dynamic concentration range of 8.0× 10-6-1.0×10-1 M. The electrode had relatively short response time ...

Described herein is the first study of metal oxide deposition on an electrode with a solid/liquid/gas triphase reaction interface. Such an electrode enables the formation of a locally high interface pH value that is independent of the bulk conditions, and allows the deposition of a wide variety of metal oxides in a robust electrolyte. The results reveal that the control of electrode surface wet...

A new nitrate-selective liquid-membrane electrode based on the tris(2,2',2"-salicylideneimino)triethylamine-iron(III) complex has been developed. This electrode exhibits a linear Nernstian response over the range 10(-1)-10(-4) M of nitrate, with a slope of 54.3 +/- 0.9 mV per p[NO3]. The effects of the pH and the liquid-membrane composition were also investigated. The lifetime of the electrode ...

This paper presents the printed thick film Ag|AgCl|KCl reference electrodes for electrochemical or biosensors application and their electrochemical and analytical performance. The reference electrode exhibits a stable potential against standard glass reference electrode with a potential difference of 5 mV in the deionized water. The anodic and cathodic peak current of the electrode increase wit...
