A Nanocomposite Paste Electrode Sensor for Simultaneous Detection of Uric Acid and Bisphenol A Using Zinc Hydroxide Nitrate-Sodium Dodecylsulfate Bispyribac.

The fabrication of a zinc hydroxide nitrate-sodium dodecylsulfate bispyribac modified with multi-walled carbon nanotube (ZHN-SDS-BP/MWCNT) paste electrode for uric acid and bisphenol A detection was presented in this study. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, chronocoulometry, square-wave voltammetry, and cyclic voltammetry were all used to examine the electrocatalytic activities of modified paste electrodes. The modified electrode's sensitivity and selectivity have been considered in terms of the composition of the modifier in percentages, the types of supporting electrolytes used, the pH of the electrolyte, and square-wave voltammetry parameters like frequency, pulse size, and step increment.

Novel and Highly Sensitive Electrochemical Sensor for the Determination of Oxytetracycline Based on Fluorine-Doped Activated Carbon and Hydrophobic Deep Eutectic Solvents.

Residues of oxytetracycline (OTC), a veterinary antibiotic and growth promoter, can be present in animal-derived foods; their consumption is harmful to human health and their presence must therefore be detected and regulated. However, the maximum residue limit is low, and consequently highly sensitive and accurate detectors are required to detect the residues. In this study, a novel highly sensitive electrochemical sensor for the detection of OTC was developed using a screen-printed electrode modified with fluorine-doped activated carbon (F-AC/SPE) combined with a novel deep eutectic solvent (DES).

Enhanced Electrochemical Sensor for Electrocatalytic Glucose Analysis in Orange Juices and Milk by the Integration of the Electron-Withdrawing Substituents on Graphene/Glassy Carbon Electrode.

In this work, a novel electrochemical sensor was developed by electron-withdrawing substituent modification of 1-phenyl-3-methyl-4-(4-fluorobenzoyl)-5-pyrazolone on a graphene-modified glassy carbon electrode (HPMpFP-graphene/GCE) for glucose detection. The results of characterizations using a scanning electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy showed the successful fabrication of HPMpFP-graphene nanocomposite, which served as an electroactive probe for glucose detection. The electron transfer ability of HPMpFBP-graphene/GCE has been successfully revealed using cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy results.

Carboxymethyl Cellulose Hydrogel Based Formulations of Zinc Hydroxide Nitrate-Sodium Dodecylsulphate-Bispyribac Nanocomposite: Advancements in Controlled Release Formulation of Herbicide.

The usefulness of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) as a matrix material in enhancing the controlled release formulations of bispyribac (BP) herbicide from the interlayer gallery of zinc hydroxide nitratesodium dodecylsulphate-bispyribac (ZHN-SDS-BP) nanocomposite was investigated. The CMC coated nanocomposite, ZHN-SDS-BP-CMC was characterised using several instruments for the determination of its physicochemical properties. The release rates of the BP were measured using a UV spectrophotometer, and the aqueous solutions containing PO₄ , SO₄ and Cl were selected as release media in the release studies so as to mimic the real conditions of environmental soil.

The Fabrication of Portland Composite Cement Based on Pozzolan Napa Soil.

The objective of this study is to investigate Napa soil's potential as an alternative additive in producing Portland composite cement. The Napa soil of Tanah Datar district, West Sumatra, Indonesia is a natural material which contains SiO and AlO as its major components. The parameters used were the fineness of the cement particles, the amount left on a 45 μm sieve, the setting time, normal consistency, loss on ignition, insoluble parts, compressive strength and chemical composition.

Supramolecular Electrochemical Sensor for Dopamine Detection Based on Self-Assembled Mixed Surfactants on Gold Nanoparticles Deposited Graphene Oxide.

A new supramolecular electrochemical sensor for highly sensitive detection of dopamine (DA) was fabricated based on supramolecular assemblies of mixed two surfactants, tetra-butylammonium bromide (TBABr) and sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS), on the electrodeposition of gold nanoparticles on graphene oxide modified on glassy carbon electrode (AuNPs/GO/GCE). Self-assembled mixed surfactants (TBABr/SDS) were added into the solution to increase the sensitivity for the detection of DA. All electrodes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), cyclic voltammetry (CV), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS).

This paper presents the application of zinc/aluminium-layered double hydroxide-quinclorac (Zn/Al-LDH-QC) as a modifier of multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) paste electrode for the determination of bisphenol A (BPA). The Zn/Al-LDH-QC/MWCNT morphology was examined by a transmission electron microscope and a scanning electron microscope. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy was utilized to investigate the electrode interfacial properties.

Novel alkaline-reduced cuprous oxide/graphene nanocomposites for non-enzymatic amperometric glucose sensor application.

This paper presents the fabrication of a highly sensitive and selective glucose sensor based on cuprous oxide/graphene nanocomposites-modified glassy carbon electrode (Cu2O/graphene/GCE). The Cu2O/graphene nanocomposites were synthesized based on a simple and straightforward chemical reduction process in alkaline aqueous solution using sodium carbonate as reductant. The size and shape of Cu2O nanoparticles on graphene sheets can be controlled by changing the amount of graphene oxide added during reaction.
