BACKGROUND AND THE PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Different methods have been proposed to modify glassy carbon electrode in order to determine dopamine (DA), as one of the most important neurotransmitters in central nervous systems of mammalian. These methods are time comsuming and in some cases expensive. In this work, a very simple and cheap pretreatment method is developed for the bare glassy carbon e...

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 ...

In the absence of adequate preventive measures the manufacture of carbon electrodes is attended by a considerable dust hazard. The present paper is based on a study of the clinical, radiological, and pathological changes resulting from inhalation of this dust, which is derived from crushed coke and anthracite. An account is given of the findings in a clinical survey of 15 men who had been emplo...

We report a coaxial fiber supercapacitor, which consists of carbon microfiber bundles coated with multiwalled carbon nanotubes as a core electrode and carbon nanofiber paper as an outer electrode. The ratio of electrode volumes was determined by a half-cell test of each electrode. The capacitance reached 6.3 mF cm(-1) (86.8 mF cm(-2)) at a core electrode diameter of 230 μm and the measured ener...

metallic copper nanoparticles modified glassy carbon electrode is fabricated by reduction of cuso4 in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctab) through potentiostatic method. as-prepared nanoparticles are characterized by scanning electron microscopy and electrochemical methods. copper oxide modified glassy carbon electrode (nano-cuo/mgce) is prepared using consecutive potential sca...

Flexible energy storage devices are highly demanded for various applications. Carbon cloth (CC) woven by carbon fibers (CFs) is typically used as electrode or current collector for flexible devices. The low surface area of CC and the presence of big gaps (ca. micro-size) between individual CFs lead to poor performance. Herein, we interconnect individual CFs through the in-situ exfoliated graphe...

We demonstrate the application of a low-temperature carbon counter electrode with good flexibility and high conductivity in fabricating perovskite solar cells. A modified two-step method was used for the deposition of nanocrystalline CH3NH3PbI3 under high relative humidity. The carbon counter electrode was printed on a perovskite layer directly, with different sizes of graphite powder being emp...

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...
