A new type of pH biosensor was developed for biological applications. This biosensor was fabricated using silicon microsystem technology and consists in two platinum microelectrodes. The first microelectrode was coated by an electrosynthesized polymer and acted as the pH sensitive electrode when the second one was coated by a silver layer and was used as the reference electrode. Then, this potentiometric pH miniaturized biosensor based on electrosynthesized polypyrrole or electrosynthesized linear polyethylenimine films was tested. The potentiometric responses appeared reversible and linear to pH changes in the range from pH 4 to 9. More, the responses were fast (less than 1 min for all sensors), they were stable in time since PPy/PEI films were stable during more than 30 days, and no interference was observed. The influence of the polymer thickness was also studied.

Ambient Synthesis of Cyclohexanone Oxime via In Situ Produced Hydrogen Peroxide over Cobalt-Based Electrocatalyst.

Adv Sci (Weinh)

December 2024

Cyclohexanone oxime, a critical precursor for nylon-6 production, is traditionally synthesized via the hydroxylamine method under industrial harsh conditions. Here is present a one-step electrochemical integrated approach for the efficient production of cyclohexanone oxime under ambient conditions. This approach employed the coupling of in situ electro-synthesized HO over a cobalt (Co)-based electrocatalyst with the titanium silicate-1 (TS-1) heterogeneous catalyst to achieve the cyclohexanone ammoximation process.

Developing high-performance adsorbents for energy-efficient separation of xylene isomers has important research and application value. Identification and separation of xylene isomers (PX, MX, and OX) at room temperature based on the different relative positions of two methyl groups on the benzene ring is an unprecedented attempt. Herein, 1-aminopyrene polymer (PAP) is designed and electro-synthesized composited with a supporting electrolyte as an adsorbent for the separation of xylene isomers using a multi-stage dispersed liquid-solid adsorption process at room temperature.

Clean hydrogen production conventional water splitting involves sluggish anodic oxygen evolution, which can be replaced with more valuable electrosynthesis reactions. Here, we propose one novel strategy for coupling organic electrosynthesis with high-purity hydrogen production. A benzoquinone-derivative disodium 4,5-dihydroxy-1,3-benzenedisulfonate (Tiron)-o1 and a naphthoquinone-derivative 2,6,8-trismethylaminemethylene-3,5-dihydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone (TANQ) were electrosynthesized and directly used in a flow battery without any further purification treatment.

One-step electrosynthesis of Cu-Hemin MOFs/CNTs for the dual determination of glyphosate.

Mikrochim Acta

August 2024

Tianjin Key Laboratory of Structure and Performance for Functional Molecules, College of Chemistry, Tianjin Normal University, Tianjin, 300387, China.

A simple and efficient dual-signal electrochemical sensor was designed for glyphosate (GLYP) determination based on the one-step electro-synthesized Cu-Hemin MOFs/CNTs nanocrystals. Cu-Hemin MOFs/CNTs were directly modified on the electrode through electrodeposition, avoiding complicated synthesis and modification processes. The incorporation of CNTs greatly boosted the conductivity of Cu-Hemin MOFs and the sensitivity of the electrochemical sensor.

Urea is a simple organic compound that is widely used in both the industry and daily life. Compared with conventional methods, the preparation of urea by electrochemical synthesis is more environmentally friendly and sustainable. However, after the reaction, low amounts of urea and high concentrations of inorganic ions, including [Formula: see text] concentration was achieved without interference.
