a sodium dodecyl sulfate modified carbon paste electrode (sds/cpe) was developed in this work based on the surface modification method. the modified electrode was prepared by immersing sds/cpe in a nickel nitrate solution. this electrode showed a strong accumulation ability toward nickel ions. then modified electrode was conditioned by potential recycling in a potential range of 0.2–0.8 v (vs. ...

a thin film of epinephrine (ep) was electrochemically deposited on the surface of glassy carbon electrode previously activated in nahco3 solution. the cyclic voltammograms of the modified electrode indicate that the surface confined ep are strongly dependent on the solution ph, as expected for quinone/hydroquinone functionalities. the ep-modified glassy carbon electrode exhibited catalytic acti...

in this paper, a nanostructured modified electrode was fabricated by incorporating of 2,2′-[1,9-nonanediylbis(nitriloethylidyne)]-bis-hydroquinone (nnh) as a newly synthesized modifier and tio2 nanoparticles to the carbon paste (mtcpe) and then was used for the electroanalysis of epinephrine (ep). the electrochemical studies were carried out by using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and di...

Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), a well-characterized conducting polymer, has been applied for coating metal neural electrodes to improve their stimulating or recording performance. The coated possess advantages in better neuron attachment, lower impedance, and larger capacitance compared the bare substrate due biocompatibility porous surface of polymer. However, PEDOT-coated have freq...

The counter electrodes (CEs) for flexible dye solar cells (DSCs) are normally prepared by sputtering platinum on indium tin oxide (ITO) plastic substrate. However both ITO and platinum are expensive materials that need to be replaced with cheaper alternatives in large scale production of low-cost DSCs. We fabricated a flexible and completely carbon-based CE for DSCs based on electropolymerized ...

Multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were immobilized on the surface of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) to form a MWCNTs-CTAB nanocomposite-modified electrode. The electrocatalytic response of the modified electrode towards tryptophan (Trp) was investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The surface...

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...

Phenolic resin-derived activated carbon (AC) cloths are used as electrodes for large scale electric double-layer capacitors (EDLCs) or supercapacitors. To increase the energy and power density of the supercapacitor, the contact resistance between the carbon cloth and the aluminum foil current collector is reduced by modifying the Al current collectors. Different modified Al current collectors, ...

The present work describes the construction of a new modified electrode by casting the appropriate mixture of a metallocene, which has been introduced in the experimental part, as a mediator at the surface of glassy carbon (GC) electrode. The proposed modified GC electrode was used for the determination of ascorbic acid (AA) in phosphate buffer (PB) solution (pH = 4.0). When compared to bare GC...

Isoniazid (INH) was studied with regard to its electrochemical treatment on a strongly alkaline solution of a poly (3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)-modified gold electrode, using both cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential techniques. This composite electrode exhibited 4-fold higher oxidation of INH, in accordance with peak densities, than the bare gold electrode. It was used the central compo...
