The paper presents the results of theoretical studies that allow predicting formation wear-resistant coatings on working surfaces machine parts by method carbo-vibro-arc hardening (CVAH). Analytical regularities electric field intensity oscillating carbon electrode during (CVAH) have been established; maximum layer thickness multicomponent paste, 2.1...2.5 mm, which ensures stable arc combustio...

The ZnCrFeO4 nanoparticles were synthesized as antiferromagnetic material using sol-gel method. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) certified that ZnCrFeO4 nanoparticles have single-phase cubic structure with a range of 50–100 nm in size. A facile and sensitive analytical method was developed for simultaneous determination of sun...

A multiwall carbon nanotubes-modified carbon paste electrode (MWCNTs/MCPE) wasfabricated and used to study the electrooxidation of penicillamine (PA) by electrochemicalmethods in the presence of methyldopa (MDOP) as a homogeneous mediator. Theelectrochemical oxidation of PA on the new sensor has been carefully studied. The kineticparameters such as electron transfer coefficient, α, and catalyti...

An amperometric microbial biosensor for highly specific, sensitive and rapid quantitative determination of p-nitrophenol was developed. The biosensor takes advantage of the ability of Moraxella sp. to specifically degrade p-nitrophenol to hydroquinone, a more electroactive compound than p-nitrophenol. The electrochemical oxidation current of hydroquinone formed in biodegradation of p-nitropheno...

The performances of ionic liquid (1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium-bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide, IL/CPE) and iron phthalocyanine (IP/CPE) modified carbon paste electrodes in electroanalytical determinations of rutin were evaluated and compared to the performance of unmodified carbon paste electrode (CPE). Cyclic voltammetry (CV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), differential pulse adsorpti...

Uric acid (UA) and folic acid (FA) are compounds of biomedical interest. In humans, about 70% of daily uric acid disposal occurs via the kidneys, and in 5-25% of humans, impaired renal (kidney) excretion leads to hyperuricemia. Folate is another form folic acid of which is known as, is one of the B vitamins. It is used as a supplement by women to prevent neural tube defects developing during pr...

OBJECTIVE - To determine if the application of a continuous electrode paste band on precordial leads results in alteration of the electrocardiographic tracing as compared with an adequate amount of electrode paste, and if the former condition does not cause uniform morphologies from V1 to V6. METHODS - The amplitude and morphology of the electrocardiographic waves on the precordial leads in ele...

The electrochemical behaviour of L-cysteic acid was studied at the surface of 1-[4-(ferrocenylethynyl)phenyl]-1-ethanone modified carbon paste electrode (4FEPEMCPE) in aqueous media using cyclic voltammetry and double step potential chronoamperometry. It has been found, that under optimum condition (pH 7.00) in cyclic voltammetry, the oxidation of L-cysteic acid at the surface of 4FEPEMCPE is o...

The aim of the work was the modification of a carbon nanotube paste electrode with a highly original osmium-polymer hydrogel for the development of a new amperometric biosensor for detection of sucrose and fructose. The biosensor for sucrose is based on the activity of the enzymes invertase and fructose dehydrogenase (FDH) immobilized into a carbon nanotube paste (CNTP) electrode properly modif...

A new voltammetric sensor for determination of uric acid (UA) by Cuppercomplex- multiwalled carbon nanotube (Cu-complex-CNT) nanocomposite modifiedcarbon paste electrode (CPE) is reported. The electrocatalytic behavior of theCu-complex-CNT nanocomposite modified CPE was studied in pH 2.0 phosphatebuffer solution by chronoamperometry (CA) and cyclic voltammetry (CV) in th...
