A three-electrode based CO(2) sensor was fabricated using thick-film technology. The performance of this sensor was further enhanced by incorporating platinum nanoparticles onto the working electrode surface. An eight-fold increase in the signal output was obtained from the electrode with the platinum nanoparticles. The sensing output was linearly related to the CO(2) presented. Stability measu...

Using the LabVIEW™ graphical programming language designed by National Instruments®, a digital simulation model has been developed in order to describe electrochemical processes occurring at rotating ring-disk electrodes. The model allows for taking into consideration independent potential control of the two working electrodes, homogeneous electrode reactions, as well as spatial inhomogeneities...

furan is a possible human carcinogen in many types of foods. a new and sensitive electroanalytical method for determination of furan has been developed and validated. the best condition forelectrochemical response was obtained with 0.1 m britton-rabinson buffer solution (ph=5) a glassy carbonelectrode (gce) was used as the working electrode, a ag/agcl/ kcl(sat.) electrode served as the referenc...

The samarium (III)/(II) and europium (III)/(II) redox potentials in molten lithium chloride were measured using the direct potentiometric method in the temperature range from 923 to 1094 K. Glassy carbon was used as the indifferent working electrode, and the standard chlorine electrode as a reference. The total concentration of rare-earth chlorides dissolved in molten lithium chloride did not e...

Most biochemical analyses typically examine molecules from the same neurochemical family, like dopamine and serotonin (monoamines), and GABA and glutamate (amino acids). In this present study, two different families, monoamines and purines, are being investigated using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with a boron-doped diamond (BDD) electrode. There is considerable data demonstrat...

in the present study, we investigate the potentiometric behavior of cu2+ carbon paste electrodes based on two mercapto compounds 2-ethylmino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (eamt) and 2-acetylamino-5-mercapto-1,3,4-thiadiazole (aamt) self-assembled on gold nano-paricle (gnp) as ionophore. then, the results obtained from the modified electrodes are compared. the self-assembled ionophores exhibit a ...

Zero-current ion-flux has a great influence on the characteristics of the ion-selective electrodes. In this work the improvement of analytical performance of all-solid-state Pb(2+)-selective membrane electrodes was demonstrated by adjusting the transmembrane ion flux. The study is focused on the relationship between the conditioning solution and the linear working range of the obtained electrod...

This paper reports a novel design of a miniaturized three-electrode electrochemical cell, the purpose of which is aimed at generating drug metabolites with a high conversion efficiency. The working electrode and the counter electrode are placed in two separate channels to isolate the reaction products generated at both electrodes. The novel design includes connecting channels between these two ...

A novel platform for transient photodetector component screening has been developed whereby an optical fiber tip serves as the counter electrode when placed in a variety of dielectric media, connected to a photoresponsive working electrode. The soft processing conditions allow for ubiquitous photodetection for organic and biological systems.
