introduction: recently, attention has been drawn to the influence of smear layer removal on apical seal, and the relation of root canal filling material with canal wall surface in the presence and absence of the smear layer. the purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of the smear layer removal on the apical sealing ability of ah26 sealer. materials and methods: forty extracted huma...

Development of an in situ technique for measuring electrochemical impedance spectra in real time during an electrochemical experiment is described. The technique is based on staircase voltammetry with relatively large step heights, in which a series of increasing potential steps are applied to an electrochemical system, and the resulting currents are sampled. The first derivatives of the curren...

We report here the development of a corona discharge (CD) initiated electrochemical (EC) electrospray ionization (ESI) technique using a standard electrospray ion source. This is a new ionization technique distinct from ESI, electrochemistry inherent to ESI, APCI, and techniques using hydroxyl radicals produced under atmospheric pressure conditions. By maximizing the observable CD at the tip of...

Herein, gold nanoparticle had been successfully synthesized through a simple, inexpensive and clean electrochemical technique. Gold nanoparticles were directly deposited on the electrode surface using an electrochemical strategy. Then, the electrochemical deposition parameters (such as applied potential and deposition time) were optimized. 1.1 V and 250 s were applied as the optimal electrodepo...

in this paper, the effect of penicillin g drug as a green corrosion inhibitor on mild steel in 1.0 mhydrochloric acid solution has been investigated using potentiodynamic polarization, electrochemicalimpedance spectroscopy (eis) and electrochemical noise (en) techniques. the inhibition efficiencywas found to increase with increasing inhibitor concentration. potentiodynamic polarizationmeasureme...

vanillin is an interesting corrosion inhibitor because of its safe use and high solubility inwater. the effect of vanillin on the corrosion inhibition of carbon steel in 1.0 mhydrochloric acid solution has been studied using potentiodynamic polarization,electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (eis) and electrochemical noise (en) techniques.the effect of temperature on the rate of corrosion in th...

Magnetoelastic alloy films have been used as a working electrode in an electrochemical cell. This material allows magnetic interrogation of electrochemical deposition. This technique was used to monitor the electrochemical deposition of polypyrrole by multisweep (CV) and potentiostatic methods. Since the determination of the mass-sensitive magnetoelastic film's resonance frequency is based on m...

Simvastatin is a hypolipidemic drug used with exercise, diet and weight – loss to control elevated cholesterol or hypercholesterolemia. It is a member of the Statin class of pharmaceuticals. This paper delives voltammetric techniques is an electrochemical technique used in analytical applications and fundamental studies of electrode mechanism. This review summarizes some of the recent developme...

We introduce single-molecule spectroelectrochemistry (SMS-EC), a powerful new technique for studying electrochemical kinetics in highly heterogeneous systems. This technique uses fluorescence single-molecule spectroscopy to indirectly measure electrochemical kinetics one molecule at a time, offering for the first time the distribution of key electrochemical variables, such as the half-wave pote...

This study demonstrates the advantages of the combination between atomic force microscopy and scanning electrochemical microscopy. The combined technique can perform nano-electrochemical measurements onto agarose surface and nano-electrografting of non-conducting polymers onto conducting surfaces. This work was achieved by manufacturing an original Atomic Force Microscopy-Scanning ElectroChemic...
