Geobacter sulfurreducens generates electrical current by coupling intracellular oxidation of organic acids to the reduction of proteins on the cell surface that are able to interface with electrodes. This ability is attributed to the bacterium's capacity to respire other extracellular electron acceptors that require contact, such as insoluble metal oxides. To directly investigate the genetic ba...

The electrochemical oxidation behavior of m-nitrophenol (m-NP) was studied comparatively on glassy carbon electrode, Pt electrode, PbO2 electrode, SnO2 electrode, and graphite electrode using cyclic voltammetry. The cyclic voltammetry measurements were performed in acidic (1 M H2SO4, pH 0.4), neutral (1 M Na2SO4, pH 6.8), and...

Herein, we report multi-element doped Type-II heterostructure assembly consists of N, S doped TiO2 and ZnO for electrochemical crystal violet dye degradation studies. Electrochemical measurements were performed on these synthesized N-S codoped TiO2/ZnO compositeheterostructured assemblies which are fabricated on Titanium (Ti) substrate. It was observed that a composite ele...

A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex was achieved on the surface of glass carbon electrode by sol-gel technique. The electrochemical behavior of modified electrode was characterized by cyclic voltammetry in detail. The film electrode obtained was very stable and exhibited electrocatalytic response for oxidation of nitrite. Results showed at bare GC electrode, a...

a simple and reliable electrochemical sensor based on cobalt oxide nanoparticles modified glassy carbon electrode (gce/cooxnps) for determination of butylated hydroxyanisole is presented here. the nanoparticles were fabricated by electrodepositing method. the modified electrode shows excellent catalytic activity toward butylated hydroxyanisole oxidation in ph 12.0 phosphate buffer solution (pbs...

a fast and simple voltammetric method for the determination of methimazole in pharmaceutical products was reported. a glassy carbon electrode was pretreated by anodization at +1.75 v (vs. sce) for 5 min, followed by potential cycling in the range of 0.3-1.3 v (20 cycles). the pretreated electrode showed an excellent electrocatalytic effect on the oxidation of methimazole. compared with untreate...

For more than three decades, the field of bioelectrochemistry has provided novel insights into the catalytic mechanisms of enzymes, the principles that govern biological electron transfer, and has elucidated the basic principles for bioelectrocatalytic systems. Progress in biochemistry, bionanotechnology, and our ever increasing ability to control the chemistry and structure of electrode surfac...

The electrical breakdown characteristics of Na Cl-water mixtures are investigated over the concentration range from pure distilled water to a saturated salt solution at 20°C, The electrode material used is stainless steel and is arranged in a point-plane geometry. The electrode spacing is varced from 1-3 mm giving "average" electric fields as high as 5 MV/m. The voltage and current through the ...
