The comparison between the response corresponding to a simple charge transfer taking place at an electroactive monolayer with that of an electrocatalytic process at a modified electrode are presented by using the multipulse potential techniques cyclic staircase voltammetry (CSCV) and cyclic square wave voltammetry (CSWV). General analytical and explicit equations for the I E responses have been...

The attachment of mouse immunoglobulin G (IgG) and anti-mouse IgG antibodies onto carbon nanotubes (CNTs), using either non-covalent or covalent means was investigated. The resultant CNTs were characterised using a variety of techniques including enzymelinked and fluorescence-linked immunoassays, UV-visible-NIR and Raman spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and cyclic voltammetry. TEM...

Cyclic voltammetry has been applied for the characterization of cross-linked horse heart cytochrome c (HHC) on cysteamine-modified gold electrodes. The cross-linking, i.e. amide bond formation, between the proteins was achieved by using 1-ethyl-3-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-carbodiimide (EDC) as coupling reagent. The optimal conditions for the formation of the HHC film were determined by varying th...

The electrochemical behaviour of L-cysteic acid was studied at the surface of 1-[4-(ferrocenylethynyl)phenyl]-1-ethanone modified carbon paste electrode (4FEPEMCPE) in aqueous media using cyclic voltammetry and double step potential chronoamperometry. It has been found, that under optimum condition (pH 7.00) in cyclic voltammetry, the oxidation of L-cysteic acid at the surface of 4FEPEMCPE is o...

A nanocomposite of polyaniline (PANI) with natural clinoptilolite (Clino) was prepared by chemical oxidative polymerization of anilinium cations in the presence of clinoptilolite dispersion. The PANI/Clino nanocomposite was characterized using FTIR, XRD and SEM techniques as well as electrical conductivity measurement using four point probe technique. Cyclic voltammetry analysis was used to inv...

Fabrication and electrochemical characterization of a sensor for the determination of epinephrine (EP), uric acid (UA) and folic acid (FA) is described. The sensor  was prepared using carbon paste electrode (CPE) modified with 3,4-dihydroxybenzaldehyde-2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazone (DDP) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs), which makes the modified electrode highly sensitive for the electrochemical detect...

A novel class of azo-guanidine compounds is introduced in this article. The novel compound 2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-1-(phenylamino)-3-(phenylimino)guanidine (AG) was synthesized and well characterized by using different analytical instrumental techniques like elemental analysis, FTIR, (1)H and (13)C NMR, UV-Visible spectroscopy and cyclic voltammetry. The new compound was found interacting with DNA ...

The electrochemical behaviour of SWCNTs randomly dispersed on gold and glassy carbon electrode surfaces was characterised via cyclic voltammetry and complex impedance spectroscopy, using the ferri/ferrocyanide couple as a redox active test probe . In subsequent investigations glucose oxidase (GOx) was adsorbed onto the SWCNT ensemble without apparent denaturation of the enzyme. Cyclic voltammet...
