A closed form analytical expression is derived for the normalized current versus potential response expected for a rotating disc electrode in which an initial fast electron transfer reaction is followed by a homogeneous electrochemical reaction which exhibits second order kinetics. The effect of the homogeneous reaction on the shape of the voltammetric response curve is calculated.

A significant depletion of the electroactive monoamines and their metabolites in the vicinity of a carbon fiber microelectrode may be induced by in vivo staircase voltammetry in the brain, even if the duration of the voltammetric scans is relatively short (approximately 5 s). The variation of this depletion was determined in the extracellular fluid of the cat thalamus at different durations of ...

A novel voltammetric method for the determination of microamounts of fish sperm double-stranded (ds) DNA based on its interaction with phenosafranine (PSF) is proposed in this paper. In a pH 3.5 Britton-Robinson (B-R) buffer solution, PSF had a well-defined second-order derivative linear-sweep voltammetric reductive peak at -0.32 V (vs. SCE) on a mercury electrode. After the addition of dsDNA i...

A new method is described to simultaneously determine the kinetics of surface partitioning and the lateral diffusion constant of redox active amphiphiles. It concerns water-soluble amphiphiles for which the surface adsorption equilibrium constant and the solution diffusion constant are measured independently. The method involves cyclic voltammetric experiments carried out at the air/water inter...

This mini review describes the results regarding the voltammetric determination of micromolar, submicromolar and nanomolar concentrations of various fluoroquinolones antibacterial agents using both traditional hanging mercury drop electrode, carbon paste electrode, glassy carbon paste electrode and chemically modified electrodes. We concentrate on the interaction of quinolones with DNA in solut...

The synthesis and characterization of a series of mixed l,l-/l,2-dithiolene complexes, M[S2C2(CN)2] [SüCNR*]* with z = — 1, M = Ni, Cu, Pd, Pt and with 2 = 0, M = Ni, Cu, Au, M [S2C2(CN)2] [S2C NC N]2' , M = Ni, Pd, and N i[S2C2(CN)2] [S2COC2H5] are reported. Voltammetric studies in dichloromethane revealed that the mixed complexes could be oxidized in a one electron step, the half-wavepotentia...

In Pseudomonas aeruginosa, chemical deconvolution of the pyocyanin voltammetric signal allows its expression to be observed simultaneously with the quorum sensing molecule Pseudomonas quinolone signal (PQS). Such analysis has revealed that PQS might protect pyocyanin from self-oxidation, but also exert a pro-oxidative effect on pyocyanin under oxidative conditions to produce additional redox me...

The first examples of halogen bonding redox-active ferrocene receptors and their anion electrochemical sensing properties are reported. Halogen bonding was found to significantly amplify the magnitude of the receptor's metallocene redox-couple's voltammetric responses for halide sensing compared to their hydrogen bonding analogues in both acetonitrile and aqueous-acetonitrile solvent media.

We report here a new voltammetric method for the sensitive and selective determination of Hg(2+) based on rational covalent functionalization of graphene oxide with cysteamine to form cysteamine-functionalized graphene through nucleophilic ring-opening reaction between the epoxy of graphene oxide and the amino group of cysteamine in KOH solution.

This work describes a voltammetric electronic tongue, in which the quantitative information contained in voltammograms obtained from amperometric sensors is firstly extracted employing the discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and then processed employing artificial neural n i e D i o B ©
