a pvc membrane ni(ii) ion selective electrode has been constructed using (1e,2e)-bis(2-aminophenyl)n'1,n'2-dihydroxyethanebis as membrane carrier. the electrode exhibited a goodpotentiometric response for ni(ii) over a wide concentration range 1.0×10-4 to 1.0×10-1m with aslope of 29.4±0.5 mv/decade a and a working ph range of 6.5-9.0. it had a fast response time of≤20s. the best perfo...

A portable vacuum interface allowing direct probing of the electrode-electrolyte interface was developed. A classical electrochemical system consisting of a gold working electrode, platinum counter electrode, platinum reference electrode, and potassium iodide electrolyte was used to demonstrate real-time observation of the gold iodide adlayer on the electrode and chemical species as a result of...

An electrochemical aptasensor for detection of trace amounts of aflatoxin M1 was developed. This required immobilization of aptamer on screen printed gold electrode comprising of working electrode, counter electrode and reference electrode and was achieved by sequentially layering dithiodipropionic acid, streptavidin and biotinylated-tetraethylene glycol-aptamer. Immobilization of aptamer was m...

In this work a new and simple two electrode amperometric sensor for NO2 detection is described. The sensor consists of a Nafion® proton exchange membrane (PEM), a Graphite working electrode, and a NiO counter electrode. The developed sensor presents a good sensitivity to NO2 and very small cross sensitivity to CO and O2. A dedicated measurement system was developed, and a measurement protocol w...

Conclusion It has been demonstrated that the electrochemical detection of iodine in the presence of excess iodide can be reliable and sensitive, when the appropriate solution environment is used with the appropriate working and counter electrodes. While, certain electrode systems have a very low detection limit for iodine, they can suffer poor reproducibility due to absorption onto or possibly ...

The meaning and significance of uncompensated resistance are carefully explained. Many factors influence the uncompensated resistance and several of these are explored in this article, using idealized models of an electrochemical cell. Among the factors whose roles have been elucidated are the shape and size of the cell, the location of the reference electrode, the shape of the working electrod...

A voltammetric electronic tongue consisting of a composite metal base electrode array for discrimination of basic taste has been presented. The electrode array consisting of Gold, Nickel, Palladium, Copper and Glassy Carbon as working electrode, has been used for transforming information of taste substances into electric signal. The electrodes output show different patterns for chemical substan...

Manganese plays a key role in the health of human beings therefore, its determination is very important in medical fields. In this regards, a novel coated graphite electrode was constructed for determination of manganese (II) by using zolpidem as an ionophore, for the first time. The best performance was obtained of the membrane composition of PVC (32%), Potassium tetrakis (4-chlorophenyl) bora...

N-(2H-[1,2,4]thiadiazolo[2,3-a]pyridine-2-ylidene)benzamide was used as a selective sensing material in the PVC membrane to construction of a new chromium ion selective electrode. This liquid membrane electrode worked well with a Nernstian response of 19.7 ±0.4 mV decade-1 of Cr(III) in a wide dynamic concentration range of 8.0× 10-6-1.0×10-1 M. The electrode had relatively short response time ...
