Activated Screen-Printed Boron-Doped Diamond Electrode for Rapid and Highly Sensitive Determination of Curcumin in Food Products.

Due to a great interest in the beneficial properties of polyphenolic antioxidant curcumin (CCM), sensitive and accurate methods for determining CCM are needed. The purpose of our research was to develop a very simple, fast, and sensitive differential pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetric (DPAdSV) procedure using an electrochemically activated screen-printed boron-doped diamond electrode (aSPBDDE) for the determination of CCM. The activation of the SPBDDE was accomplished in a solution of 0.

Sensitive and Selective Voltammetric Sensor Based on Anionic Surfactant-Modified Screen-Printed Carbon for the Quantitative Analysis of an Anticancer Active Fused Azaisocytosine-Containing Congener.

3-(4-Nitrophenyl)-8-(2,3-dimethylphenyl)-7,8-dihydroimidazo[2,1-][1,2,4]triazin-4(6)-one (NDIT) is one of the most promising candidates for anticancer agents. Hence, a sensitive and selective sodium dodecyl sulfate-modified screen-printed carbon sensor (SPCE/SDS) was used for its quantitative analysis. The SPCE/SDS, in contrast to the SPCE, showed excellent behavior in the electrochemical reduction of NDIT by differential-pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetry (DPAdSV).

Voltammetric Quantification of Anti-Cancer Antibiotic Bleomycin Using an Electrochemically Pretreated and Decorated with Lead Nanoparticles Screen-Printed Sensor.

In this paper, we report a highly sensitive voltammetric sensor for the determination of the anti-cancer antibiotic bleomycin (BLM) based on a screen-printed carbon sensor that is electrochemically pretreated and decorated with lead nanoparticles in the sample solution (pSPCE/PbNPs). These sensor surface manipulations contribute to significant amplification of the analytical signal and improvement of its shape and repeatability. The effect of the electrochemical behavior of BLM on the pSPCE/PbNPs was examined by electrochemical strategies.

Supporting Electrolyte Manipulation for Simple Improvement of the Sensitivity of Trace Vanadium(V) Determination at a Lead-Coated Glassy Carbon Electrode.

The paper presents a very simple way to extremely improve the sensitivity of trace V(V) determination. The application of a new supporting electrolyte composition (CHCOONH, CHCOOH, and NHCl) instead of the commonly used acetate buffer (CHCOONa and CHCOOH) significantly enhanced the adsorptive stripping voltammetric signal of vanadium(V) at the lead-coated glassy carbon electrode (GCE/PbF). A higher enhancement was attained in the presence of cupferron as a complexing agent (approximately 10 times V(V) signal amplification) than in the case of chloranilic acid and bromate ions (approximately 0.

Application of a Screen-Printed Sensor Modified with Carbon Nanofibers for the Voltammetric Analysis of an Anticancer Disubstituted Fused Triazinone.

In this paper, we propose the first analytical procedure-using a screen-printed carbon electrode modified with carbon nanofibers (SPCE/CNFs)-for the detection and quantitative determination of an electroactive disubstituted fused triazinone, namely 4-Cl-PIMT, which is a promising anticancer drug candidate. The electrochemical performances of the sensor were investigated by cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and square-wave adsorptive stripping voltammetry (SWAdSV). The presence of carbon nanofibers on the sensor surface caused a decrease in charge-transfer resistance and an increase in the active surface compared to the bare SPCE.
