The molecular mechanism of the metal specificity to superoxide dismutase from human pathogen C. difficile (SODcd) was investigated by X-ray crystallography, spectroscopy, SOD activity assay, electrochemistry, and DFT calculations, and the results indicate that the cognate metal characters tuned by the metal micro-environment dominate the metal specificity of the SODcd.

This short review is aimed at emphasizing the recent most prominent advances in electrochemical investigation of interactions molecules with purely lipid bilayers. The first part which deals electrode-supported bilayer membranes articulated around nature electrode material a focus on mercury to celebrate this special issue entitled “100 years from polarography contemporary electrochemistry”. se...

Methods routinely utilized for detection of phenylalanine in new-born blood consist of enzymatic assays, lacking sensitivity and HPLC assays which are expensive and time-consuming to conduct. We, here, report for the first time, the construction of a phenylalanine sensitive electrode, on the basis of a selective molecularly imprinted polymer, offering sensitivity, economy and ease of use for th...

Interactive multimedia module with pedagogical agent (IMMPA) named EC Lab was developed in order to assist students in the learning of Electrochemistry topic. A non-equivalent pre-test post-test control group design investigation was carried out in order to gauge the effect of EC Lab on students’ understanding in the learning of Electrochemistry. Some 127 Form Four students from two secondary s...

Raman spectroscopy could supply the molecular vibrational process giving detailed information of structure. At same time, electrochemistry provide kinetic and thermodynamic processes. Integration both technology with general definition using spectroscopic approaches for assaying variations triggered through an electrochemistry-based system within electrochemical cell induces a novel technique, ...

The electrochemistry of banana tissues on a carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) is presented. Cyclic voltammetry is applied to investigate the direct electrochemistry of banana tissues i.e. a source of polyphenol oxidase (PPO). A redox couple with an anodic and counterpart cathodic peak is obtained. The influence of various parameters such as pH,...
