The electroanalysis of dopamine (DA) and ascorbic acid (AA) by square wave voltammetry has been performed at a modified carbon paste electrode with macrocyclic ligand 1, 4, 8, 11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (cyclam) and ...The electroanalysis of dopamine (DA) and ascorbic acid (AA) by square wave voltammetry has been performed at a modified carbon paste electrode with macrocyclic ligand 1, 4, 8, 11-tetraazacyclotetradecane (cyclam) and monolayer of Ni (II) cyclam. In pH 7.2 buffer solutions, the electrostatic reaction of AA with di-positive monolayer shifts the oxidation potential to less positive potential, while the electrostatic repulsion of DA with the monolayer shifts the oxidation potential of DA to more positive potential. The separation between the oxidation peaks of AA and DA at the present di-positive monolayer modified electrode (252 mV) was larger than that (187 mV) at the cyclam modified electrode. In addition, the catalytic oxidation of AA by oxidized DA has been advantageously eliminated at the modified carbon paste electrode with cyclam and Ni (II) cyclam complex. Thus, the determination of DA in the presence of an excess of AA is possible with the present modified electrodes.展开更多

Carbon paste electrode prepared in the laboratory was modified with Hg thin film and used as the working electrode. MWCNT was incorporated into the carbon paste for enhancement in sensitivity of the measurements. Electrochemical response for the uranium (VI) reduction peak was found to be well resolved on the thin mercury film modified carbon paste surface and also with the MWCNT modification. Characteristics of the adsorption preconcentration process were investigated using electrochemical impedance measurements. Electrochemical signals were observed to be enhanced on MWCNT modification of the carbon paste.展开更多

In this study, gold nanoparticles(GNPs) were chosen as interesting metal nanoparticles for modifying carbon paste electrode(CPE). GNPs and the gold nanoparticles-modified carbon paste electrode(GNPs/CPE) were characterized by UV–Vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy(TEM) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). GNPs/CPE as a simple and sensitive electrode was used to study three important biological molecules: folic acid(FA), uric acid(UA) and ascorbic acid(AA). Square wave voltammetry(SWV) was used as an accurate technique for quantitative measurements. A good linear relation was observed between anodic peak current(ipa) and FA(5.2 × 10(-6)– 2.5 × 10(-5)M), UA(1.2 × 10(-6)– 2.1 × 10(-5)M) and AA(1.2 × 10(-6)– 2.5 × 10(-5)M) concentrations in simultaneous determination of these molecules.展开更多

Field emission scanning electron microscope(FE-SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy(EDX) techniques were employed to confirm the deposition of ZnO-rGrO and PB on carbon paste electrode(CPE). The ability of ZnO-rGrO-PB/MCPE in charge transfer at the interface was investigated using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS). The heterogeneous rate constant(ks) and the charge transfer coefficient(α) have been calculated as 6.08 s^(-1) and 0.74 respectively. This sensor showed a wide linear response for Rtn from 7.0×10^(-8)to 7.0×10^(-6) M and 7.0×10^(-6) to 1.0×10^(-4) M with a limit of detection(2.05±0.04)×10^(-8) M(S/N=3). The application of ZnO-rGrO-PB/MCPE was found in the analysis of Rtn in fruit juice samples using standard addition method. This sensor showed good reproducibility, stability, selectivity and sensitivity.展开更多

It is an eggplant-banana-tissue-based carbon paste microelectrode. As oxidative enzymes in banana tissue can bio-catalytically oxidize dopamine (DA), norepinephrine(NE), L-dopa, etc, the biosensor's sensitivity is improved. Because of the ability of eggplant tissue to eliminate the oxidation of ascorbic acid (AA), the signal of AA is a steady-state response. and thereby the selectivity of the biosensor is enhanced. The effect of experimental conditions such as pH, temperature, ratio of two plant tissues, response time, and linear range were evaluated in order to optimize the analytical performance. The detection limit for DA is 3. 2 × 10-7 mol/L.Our results showed that the idea of multienzyme system is applicable to the plant tissue-based carbon paste microelectrodes.展开更多
