gas sensitive metal oxide layers used in fabrication of resistive gas sensors are prepared by different deposition techniques. the technical data reported on some basic and practically important specifications of these devices, although fabricated based on the same gas sensitive oxide, are anomalously different. the influence of the fabrication technique used for the deposition of the gas sensi...

Fe2+ ion-selective membrane sensor has been fabricated from polyvinyl chloride (PVC) matrixmembrane containing neutral carrier tetra phenyl porphyrin (TPP) ionophore. The addition ofsodium tetraphenylborate (NaTPB) and the plasticizer DBP has been found to substantiallyimprove the performance of the sensor. The best performance was obtained with the sensor havinga membrane of composition of TPP...

This paper presents a comparison of different configurations of a wireless sensor system for capturing human motion. The systems consist of sensor elements which wirelessly transfers motion data to a receiver element. The sensor elements consist of a microcontroller, accelerometer(s) and a radio transceiver. The receiver element consists of a radio receiver connected through a microcontroller t...

Advances in medical sciences with other fields of science and technology is closely casual profound mutations in different branches of science and methods for providing medical services affect the lives of its descriptor. Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) represents such a leap. Those networks excite new branches in the world of telemedicine. Small wireless sensors, to be quite precise and calc...

A novel potentiometric ion-selective PVC membrane sensor for analysis of atorvastatin (AT) in pharmaceutical preparations based on atorvastatin-(tetraphenyl borate), (AT-(TPB)2) as sensing element, tetraphenyl borate as additive and tris-2-ethyl-hexyl phosphate (TOP) as plasticizer solvent was prepared. The electrode shows a good Nernestian response over the concentration range of 0.09–5586 µ...

A new polyvinyl choloride (PVC) membrane sensor for cerium (III) was prepared based on 4,13-didecyl-1,7,10,16-tetraoxa-4,13-diazacyclooctadecane (kryptofix22DD) as an ionophore. The sensor exhibites a linear concentration range of 1.0×10-6 to 1.0×10-1 M, with a Nernstian slope of 18.0±1.0 mV/decade, and a detection limit of 9.7×10-7 M. It has a fast response tim...

Cobalt has great biological effects on human beings and also other living organisms, hence its determination is very important. In this regard, a novel coated graphite electrode was designed for determination of Co2+ ions by exploiting 6-chloro-11- azabenzo[a]phenothiazin-5-one as a neutral ion carrier, for the first time. The foremost function was witnessed from the membrane composition of PVC...
