This review addresses recent developments in electrochemistry and electroanalytical chemistry of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). CNTs have been proved to possess unique electronic, chemical and structural features that make them very attractive for electrochemical studies and electrochemical applications. For example, the structural and electronic properties of the CNTs endow them with distinct electrocatalytic activities and capabilities for facilitating direct electrochemistry of proteins and enzymes from other kinds of carbon materials. These striking electrochemical properties of the CNTs pave the way to CNT-based bioelectrochemistry and to bioelectronic nanodevices, such as electrochemical sensors and biosensors. The electrochemistry and bioelectrochemistry of the CNTs are summarized and discussed, along with some common methods for CNT electrode preparation and some recent advances in the rational functionalization of the CNTs for electroanalytical applications.

Here, we present three-dimensional-printed dual-channel flow-through miniaturized devices (3D) with dual electrochemical detection (ED) integrating two working electrodes each in an in-channel configuration (3D-ED). Prussian Blue (PB) shell-gold nanoparticles ((PB)AuNP) core-based electrochemistry was chosen for selective hydrogen peroxide determination. 3D-ED devices exhibited impress stability, identical intrachannel and interchannel electrochemical performances, and excellent interdevice precision with values under 9%, revealing the reliability of the design and fabrication of the devices.

Laser-induced graphene, which was first reported in 2014, involves the creation of graphene by using a laser to modify a polyimide surface. Since then, laser-induced graphene has been extensively studied for application in different scientific fields. One beneficial approach is the use of laser-induced graphene coupled with electrochemistry, where there is a growing need for disposable, conductive, reproducible, flexible, biocompatible, sustainable, and economical electrodes.

Article Synopsis
- * A neutral Np(VI) complex was successfully used to establish a reversible 1-electron redox couple in both protic and aprotic organic solvents, characterized through electrochemical and spectroscopic methods.
- * The research shows that hydrogen bonding with oxo groups and water stabilizes the Np(V) species, supporting the findings about the reduction process and suggesting a unique redox behavior in this system.

In this work, we have tested two commercially available polymeric films: one with natural porosity (polyvinylidene difluoride - PVDF) and the other modified to include micropores (ethylene-vinyl acetate - EVA) created through needle puncturing. Subsequently, these films were successfully employed for the miniaturization of the electrified liquid-liquid interface formed between water and 1,2-dichloroethane solutions. The geometry of the membranes was assessed with confocal microscopy, the aqueous phase wettability was evaluated with a drop-shape analyzer whereas their ability to support the electrified liquid-liquid interfaces was followed with ion transfer voltammetry.
