the reactions of interest occur at the surface of the working electrode. Therefore, we are interested in controlling the potential drop across the interface between the surface of the working electrode and the solution (i.e., the interfacial potential). However, it is impossible to control or measure this interfacial potential without placing another electrode in the solution. Thus, two interfa...

It is exactly one hundred years ago when the first paper about development of polarography was published in 1922. Polarography considered a predecessor voltammetry, and this iconic electrochemical technique designed by Nobel laureate Jaroslav Heyrovsky. In short review, aim to highlight some most important achievements voltammetry so far. While hints are given theoretical works related various ...

There are various ways to impose a potential variation in time, and subsequently a series of voltammetric methods. Cyclic voltammetry relies on linearly scanning the potential in time, observing a triangular waveform variation [1-3]. Differential pulse voltammetry is based on two samplings of the current intensity for each potential pulse: one measurement before applying the pulse, and the seco...

In this study, the protocol for arsenic (III) detection from an aqueous solution using stripping voltammetry on a silver-modified synthetic zeolite-carbonnanotubes-epoxy composite electrode (CNT-AgSZ) was elaborated. Three types of electrochemical techniques were used in order to optimize the operating conditions, i.e., cyclic voltammetry, differential-pulsed voltammetry and squarewave voltamme...

In this work, a simple and sensitive electrochemical method was developed to determine Sudan I by cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry using a glassy carbon electrode modified with a chitosan/carbon nanotube composite. In cyclic voltammetry, Sudan I exhibited a well-defined oxidation peak located at 0.72 V at the multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT)/chitosan-modified GCE. The d...

diolefinic antibacterial laser dye namely 1,4-bis[2-(4-pyridyl) vinyl] benzene (4pvb)have been investigated electrochemically using cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, convolution and deconvolution voltammetry combined with digital simulation techniques at a platinum electrode in 0.1 mol / l tetra butyl ammonium perchlorate (tbap) in  solvent 1,2-dichloroethane.  the diolefinic species were ...

The voltammetric performance of edge-plane pyrolytic graphite (EPG) electrode via adsorptive stripping voltammetry was investigated for study of the electrochemical behavior of omeprazole (OMZ) in aqueous solution. The results revealed that the oxidation of OMZ is an irreversible pH-dependent process that proceeds with the transfer of one electron and one proton in an adsorption-controlled mech...

While dopamine input to the dorsal striatum is well-known to be critical for action selection, including alcohol-motivated behaviors, it is unknown whether changes in phasic dopamine accompany these behaviors. Long-term alcohol abuse is believed to promote alterations in the neurocircuitry of reward learning in both ventral and dorsal striatum, potentially through increasing dopamine release. U...
