in this work, a novel electrochemical technique is presented for determination of bentazonusing a nanocomposite based sensor and continuous coulometric fast fourier transformation cyclicvoltammetry (ccfftcv). in this method, the sensor response is in coulomb and is calculated based onintegrating charge changes under the current voltammogram in selected potential range. the new sensor wasconstru...

A highly selective electrode for Bromide ion based on aza pyrilium derivative as an excellentionophore is described.The sensor exhibits a good linear response with a slope of ( 60±1 ) mV per decadeover the concentration range of ( 1×10-3 – 9×10-6 M ) , and a detection limit of ( 3×10-6 M ) of Bromideions .The electrode response is independent of pH in the range of(4.0 –9.5).Selectivity coeffici...

We report the development of different types of oxygen sensors based on yittria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) as a solid electrolyte. The conventional oxygen sensor is a concentration cell with two porous Pt electrodes, one of which is exposed to air as a constant (reference) oxygen concentration and the other is exposed to automobile exhaust gas of variable oxygen concentration, depending on the a...

cupric oxide nanostructures were synthesized via a simple reaction between copper nitrate and sodium hydroxide using a sonochemical-assisted method. the synthesized cuo was then characterized using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared, ultraviolet-visible and photoluminescence spectroscopy. our studies show that the cuo na...

A precise and simple in-situ voltammetric measurement of promethazine, based on the nano sized molecularly imprinted polymer (nano-MIP) was introduced. The nano-MIP was synthesized utilizing vinyl benzene and Divinylbenzene as the functional monomer and cross-linker respectively, and via the micro-emulsion polymerization method in silicon oil. The MIP particles were then embedded in a carbon pa...

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...

A highly selective copper (II) coated graphite sensor was prepared by 1,13-bis(8-quinolyl)- 1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxatridecane (kryptofix 5) as a supramolecule ionophore into plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC) membrane. The best response characteristic was observed using the membrane composition of PVC = 30.0 mg, dioctyl sebacate (DOS) = 63.5 mg, palmitic acid (PA) = 3.0 mg and kryptofix 5 = 3.5 m...

soil compaction and moisture content are two of the factors that greatly influence variations in crop yield. capacitance-based sensor is a sensitive device for estimating soil water content. in this method of soil moisture content measurement, soil acts as the dielectric of the capacitor. throughout this research work, a capacitance-based moisture sensor that can measure the soil moisture conte...

the combination of graphene (gr) and nickel oxide nanoparticles (nio nps) yields nanostructured electrochemical sensor formed a novel kind of structurally uniform and electrocatalytic activity material. in cyclic voltammetry (cv) studies, in the presence of ep, nio/gr composite modified electrode shows a significantly higher current response for ep oxidation. based on differential pulse voltamm...
