Scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM) is discussed as a versatile tool to provide localized (electro)chemical information in the context of biosensor research. Advantages of localized electrochemical measurements will be discussed and a brief introduction to SECM and its operation modes will be given. Experimental challenges of the different detection modes of SECM and its applicability for different fields in biosensor research are discussed. Among these are the evaluation of immobilization techniques by probing the local distribution of biological activity, the visualization of diffusion profiles of reactants, cofactors, mediators, and products, and the elucidation of (local) kinetic parameters. The combination of SECM with other scanning-probe techniques allows to maximize the information on a given biosensing system. The potential of SECM as a tool in micro-fabrication aiming for the fabrication of microstructured biosensors will be shortly discussed.

In this study, a simple and easy synthesis strategy to realize the modification of AuHgPt nanoalloy materials on the surface of ITO glass at room temperature is presented. Gold nanoparticles as templates were obtained by electrochemical deposition, mercury was introduced as an intermediate to form an amalgam, and then a galvanic replacement reaction was utilized to successfully prepare gold-mercury-platinum (AuHgPt) nanoalloys. The obtained alloys were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction techniques.

Dihydromyricetin (DMY), as the main active ingredient in , is a naturally occurring flavonoid that has attracted extensive attention for its multiple biological activities. For the quick and accurate measurement of DMY, a novel electrochemical sensor based on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with a cobalt metal-organic framework (Co-MOF) was proposed in this work. The Co-MOF was synthesized via a single-step hydrothermal process using Co(NO)·6HO.

Titanium potassium oxalate had been mixed into the electrolyte to improve the anti-corrosion property of the micro arc oxidation coating on the surface of the aluminium alloy. The surface and cross-section of the coating at different titanium potassium oxalate concentrations had been observed by scanning electron microscopy, showing that when the titanium potassium oxalate concentration was 10 g/L, the coating compactness was better. Additionally, the element content of the coating had been studied by the energy dispersive spectrometer, and results proved that the coating consisted of Al, O, Ti, Si, and P.
