Ni/NiO thin film Sensors for Mercury ions detection by Square wave anodic stripping voltammetry
2018
Square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) is considered a very interesting electrochemical method for heavy metals detection in comparison to conventional techniques [1]. The main features of this technique are the high sensitivity and reproducibility (standard deviation lower than 5%), besides, the limit of detection is in the ppb level so is comparable with standard techniques such as AAS or ICP, the instrumentation is very inexpensive and easy to use and the detection time is very low. Among heavy metals, mercury is one of the most toxic for both environment and humans. In fact, it may cause serious health problems to brain, kidney and DNA. The concentration limit imposed by US En…
Galvanic deposition of Chitosan-AgNPs as antibacterial coating
Thanks to mechanical properties similar human bones, metallic materials represent the best choice for fabrication of orthopedic implants. Although metals could be widely used in the field of biomedical implants, corrosion phenomena could occur, causing metal ions releasing around periprosthetic tissues leading, in the worst cases, to the development of infections. In these cases, patients need prolonged antibiotic therapies that may cause bacterial resistance. Preventing bacterial colonization of biomedical surfaces is the key to limiting the spread of infections. Antibacterial coatings have become a very active field of research, strongly stimulated by the increasing urgency of identifying…
