Six Nucleus cochlear implant recipients participated in a study investigating the effect of place of stimulation on melody perception using rate-pitch cues. Each stimulus was a pulse train delivered on either a single electrode or multiple electrodes sequentially. Four spatial stimulation patterns were used: a single apical electrode, a single mid electrode, a pair of electrodes (apical and mid...

Polypyrrole(PPy) nanowire modified electrodes were developed by template-free electrochemical method based on graphite electrode. The modified electrode was characterized by their amperometric response towards nitrate ions. Before reduction of nitrate ions, electrochemical solid-phase extraction (EC-SPE) of nitrate in/on modified electrodes was conducted. It is found that the unusual nanowired ...

Organically modified sol-gel glass (ormosil) matrix is utilized as a template for the electrochemical polymerization of aniline. The ormosil matrix is further modulated by encapsulation of: (a) tetracyanoquinodimethane (TCNQ), and (b) tetracyanoquinodimethane together with palladium (Pd). The presence of tetracyanoquinodimethane within ormosil matrix considerably influences the polymerization p...

carbon nanotubes are regarded as promising building blocks for the construction of novel biosensors due to their unique properties like fast electron transfer, high electrocatalytic effect and good biocompatibility. in the present study, the effect of different chemical oxidation’s methods of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (mwcnts) on the electrochemical behavior of modified graphite electrodes ...

Reaction of poly(y-ethyl L-glutamate) with N-(3-aminopmpy1)imidazole gives an imidazole doped polymer which f o ~ m s 6-coordinate complexes with iron(II1) porphyrins. Modified electrodes are prepared using these porphyrin containing polymers. The new matelids are characterised by cyclic voltammetry, UV-visible spectroscopy and by sui-face enhanced resonance Raman spectroscopy. The techniques a...
