Rapid and facile preparation of the cheap modified electrode materials is an important parameter in development of the efficient electrochemical sensor for industrial scale production and mass-market usage. In the present work, the carbon paste electrode modified with multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) was prepared for sensitive determination of lead (Pb) ion in the presence of bismuth (Bi)...

A montmorillonite from Wyoming-USA was used to prepare an organo-clay complex, named 2-thiazoline-2-thiol-hexadecyltrimethylammonium-clay (TZT-HDTA-clay), for the purpose of the selective adsorption of the heavy metals ions and possible use as a chemically modified carbon paste electrode (CMCPE). Adsorption isotherms of Hg2+, Pb2+, Cd2+, Cu2+, and Zn2+ from aqueous solutions as a function of th...

This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of the carbon-based nanomaterial type on the electrical properties of cement paste. Three different nanomaterials, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), graphite nanofibers (GNFs), and graphene (G), were incorporated into the cement paste at a volume fraction of 1%. The self-sensing capacity of the cement composites was also investigated by comp...

An efficient multi-walled carbon nanotube/gold colloidal nanoparticle paste electrode (MWCNTs/ Au Nps PE) was prepared for detection of hydrazine in the presence of pyrogallol red as a mediator in the homogenous solution. The prepared MWCNTs/ Au Nps PE and multi-walled carbon nanotube paste electrode (MWCNTs PE) were characterized by Raman spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and cyclic v...

Surfactant modified carbon nanotube paste electrode is prepared as electrochemical sensor with high sensitivity responding to mitoxantrone (MTX). Electrochemical oxidation of MTX is investigated in buffered solution by cyclic voltammetry that is found very sensitive method for detection of MTX. It is shown that the sodium dodecyl sulfate modified carbon nanotube paste electrode (SDSMCNTPE) give...

This paper describes the development of screen-printed (SPE) and carbon paste (CPE) sensors for the rapid and sensitive quantification of naphazoline hydrochloride (NPZ) in pharmaceutical formulations. This work compares the electroactivity of conventional carbon paste and screen-printed carbon paste electrodes towards potentiometric titration of NPZ. The repeatability and accuracy of measureme...

Manganese is an essential micronutrient for all organisms; however at high concentrations it has a toxic effect. Manganese toxicity is a serious constraint to crop cultivation since it is taken-up by plants and can easily be passed into the food chain again causing symptoms of Parkinson’s disease. A fully validated square-wave adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry method has been developed ...
