Electrochemistry of chloramphenicol on laser-induced graphene electrodes and its voltammetric determination in honey.

Laser scribing is a promising technology for the rapid and large-scale production of low-cost electrochemical sensors from diverse substrates. Polyimide has been the most popular so far because of its low cost, flexibility and capability of generating high-quality porous graphene films, known as laser-induced graphene (LIG). Herein we report the electrochemistry of chloramphenicol (CAP) on LIG electrodes and its determination in honey samples.

Lab-made CO laser-engraved electrochemical sensors for ivermectin determination.

The ivermectin (IVM), as a broad-spectrum antiparasitic drug, was widely prescribed to treat COVID-19 during the pandemic, despite lacking proven efficacy in combating this disease. Therefore, it is important to establish affordable devices in laboratories with minimal infrastructure. The laser engraving technology has been revolutionary in sensor manufacturing, primarily attributed to the diversity of substrates that can be employed and the freedom it provides in creating sensor models.

Electrochemical determination of several biofuel antioxidants in biodiesel and biokerosene using polylactic acid loaded with carbon black within 3D-printed devices.

Low oxidation stability is the main drawback of biodiesels and biokerosenes that is overcome by using antioxidants, which can be combined due to synergistic effects. This paper demonstrates that 3D-printed electrochemical devices can be applied to biofuel electroanalysis, including the monitoring of oxidation stability by quantifying the antioxidant content in biofuels. Fabrication requires 3D-printed acrylic templates at which a polylactic acid (PLA) filament with conducting carbon-black filling sensors is extruded by a 3D pen.
