Nanowire Ordered Arrays for Electrochemical Sensing of H2O2

2016

Today, electrochemical sensors are considered very interesting in comparison to conventional techniques because they are very adaptable, cheap, have very low limit of detection and low detection time. The most used electrochemical technique is the amperometry . In amperometric sensors, a fixed potential is applied to the electrochemical cell, and a corresponding current, due to a reduction or oxidation reaction, is then obtained. This current it can be correlated with the bulk concentration of the detecting species (the solute) such as H2O2. Hydrogen peroxide is an essential mediator in food, pharmaceutical, clinical, industrial, and environmental analyses therefore, it is of great importan…

Pd-NWs ordered arrays for electrochemical sensing of H2O2

2016

In this work, we present the performance of nanostructured array of Pd (Pd-NWs) for electrochemical sensors of hydrogen peroxide. Hydrogen peroxide is widely used in several fields, because to its oxidizing and reducing properties, like for treatment of waste water, paper and contaminated soils, as reagent in many chemical industries or like rocket propellant [1]. Furthermore, its presence or absence may be connected with many neurological deseases or/and with cancer [2].Today the most used methods for detection of that chemical are IR spectroscopy, spectrophotometry, fluorimetry, chemioluminescence and redox titration. However these methods are often uneconomical, have very high detection …

One of the major materials challenge for continued safe, reliable and cost-effective utilization of watercooled nuclear reactors for electricity production is development of improved understanding of the synergistic fundamental mechanisms responsible for corrosion and stress corrosion cracking degradation of austenitic steels and nickel base alloys

Photoelectrochemical evidence of inhomogeneous composition at nm length scale of anodic films on valve metals alloys

2015

Anodic films of different thickness (∼30 nm and 70 nm) were grown by anodizing sputtering-deposited Ta-19at% Al to different formation voltages. N incorporation into the anodic films was inducing by performing the anodizing process in ammonium containing solutions. Layered anodic films were prepared by a double formation procedure with a first anodizing step in ammonium biborate solution and second anodizing step in borate buffer solution, or vice versa. Glow Discharge Optical Emission Spectroscopy was employed to show the distribution of N across the oxide. Photoelectrochemical measurements evidenced a red shift of the light absorption threshold due to N incorporation. A model was proposed…

Flexible electrode based on gold nanoparticles and reduced graphene oxide for uric acid detection using linear sweep voltammetry

2021

In this work, an electrochemical sensor for uric acid determination is shown with a preliminary study for its validation in real samples (milk and urine). Uric acid can be electrochemically oxidized in aqueous solutions and thus it is possible to obtain electrochemical sensors for this chemical by means of this electrooxidation reaction. Indium tin oxide coated on flexible polyethylene terephthalate substrate, modified with reduced graphene oxide and gold nanoparticles by co-electrodeposition, was used. Electrodeposition was performed at -0.8V vs SCE for 200 s. All samples were characterized by electron scan microscopy and electron diffraction spectroscopy. A careful investigation on the ef…
