Fabrication and electrochemical characterization of disposable working electrodes/transducers of electrochemical sensors is described in this work. The aim was to find the best electrochemical properties of screen-printed electrode substrates modified with multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) based active layers. Two types of platinum electrode contacts were investigated and the suitable thick...

The aim of this study was to develop an Escherichia coli-based metabolic selection system for the uncovering of new oligogalacturonate-active enzymes. Based on the expression of the specific permease TogMNAB, this system enabled the entry of oligogalacturonates into the cytoplasm of E. coli thus providing a modified strain usable for this purpose. This tool was used for the metabolic selection ...

In this work we report preparation TiO2 hollow spheres and its application as an electrochemical sensor. Therefore the novel carbon paste electrode modified with TiO2 hollow spheres (TOHS), multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and poly-glutamic acid (PGA) film (PGA/TOHS/MWCNTs/CPE) was used for simultaneous determination of dopamine (DA) and piroxicam (PRX) in the presence of ascorbic acid (A...

In this work, a simple and sensitive electrochemical method was developed to determine Sudan I by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode modified with a chitosan/carbon nanotube composite. In cyclic voltammetry, Sudan I exhibited a well-defined oxidation peak located at 0.72 V at the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/chitosan-modified GCE. The d...

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...

In this work, char gasification of two coals (i.e., Shenfu bituminous coal and Zunyi anthracite) and a petroleum coke under a steam and CO2 mixture (steam/CO2 partial pressures, 0.025–0.075 MPa; total pressures, 0.100 MPa) and CO2/steam chemisorption of char samples were conducted in a Thermogravimetric Analyzer (TGA). Two conventional kinetic models exhibited difficulties in exactly fitting th...

In this study, the adsorption behavior of anionic dyes from aqueous solution onto mesoporous carbon material (CMK-1) and modified with polymer (PANI/CMK-1) has been investigated as a function of parameters such as adsorbent dose (0.08-0.8 g/L), solution pH 3–10, contact time and initial concentration (10-100 mg/L). The influence of these parameters on the adsorption capacity has been studied us...

The electrochemical behavior of a modified carbon paste electrode (MCPE) with N,N′ethylenbis(salicylideneiminato)copper(II) complex ([Cu(II)-Salen]) was investigated as a newsensor for cystein. The Britton-Robinson buffer with pH 5, 10% modifier in electrode, potentialscanning rate of 20 mVs-1 and puls height of 50 mV were used as the optimum condition for thedetermination of cysteine using car...
