An electrochemical aptasensor for detection of trace amounts of aflatoxin M1 was developed. This required immobilization of aptamer on screen printed gold electrode comprising of working electrode, counter electrode and reference electrode and was achieved by sequentially layering dithiodipropionic acid, streptavidin and biotinylated-tetraethylene glycol-aptamer. Immobilization of aptamer was m...

Voltammetric sensor using a symmetrical derivative of anthrone3 (1,7-diamino-3,9-dibutyl benzo[1,2,3-de:4,5,6-d’e’]diquinoline-2,8(3H,9H)-dione) (SPE-A) has been developed as probe for Hg(II) ions. Performance the screen-printed electrode modified with receptor compared in solution phase, 1:1 water-acetonitrile solvent system. Anthrone3 displayed an electrochemically quasi-reversible nature vol...

This work reports the first use of cork as substrate to produce 3-electrode electrochemical devices, which may be very important conduct sustainable worldwide biochemical testing in point-of-care. It consists laminated covered by a thin-film an insulating resin and printed system format. Silver ink was used print electrical tracks reference electrode, while carbon working auxiliary electrodes. ...

This work reports the use of modified screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCEs) for identification three drugs abuse and two habitual cutting agents, caffeine paracetamol, combining voltammetric sensing chemometrics. In order to achieve this goal, codeine, heroin morphine were subjected Square Wave Voltammetry (SWV) at pH 7, in elucidate their electrochemical fingerprints. The optimized SPCEs el...

Conventional ion-selective electrodes with a liquid junction have the disadvantage of potential drift. All-solid-state ion-selective electrodes with solid contact in between the metal electrode and the ion-selective membrane offer high capacitance or conductance to enhance potential stability. Solution-casted chitosan/Prussian blue nanocomposite (ChPBN) was employed as the solid contact layer f...

We demonstrate that carbon electrodes screen-printed directly on cellulose paper can be employed to perform bipolar electrochemistry. In addition, an array of 18 screen-printed bipolar electrodes (BPEs) can be simultaneously controlled using a single pair of driving electrodes. The electrochemical state of the BPEs is read-out using electrogenerated chemiluminescence. These results are importan...

An amperometric cytochrome c-based electrode was developed and applied to the quantification of the scavenging capacity of antioxidants. The enzymatic biosensor was constructed by covalently immobilizing both cyt c and XOD on a mercaptoundecanoic acid/mercaptoundecanol mixed SAMmodified screen-printed gold electrode. The concentration which induces a 50% inhibition of the superoxide level (IC50...
