Electrochemistry and electrocatalysis of binuclear cobalt phthalocyaninehexasulfonate sodium salt (bi-CoPc) were investigated successfully in liquid crystal films of didodecyldimethylammonium bromide (DDAB) on pyrolytic graphite (PG) electrodes in aqueous solution. This new bi-CoPc-surfactant film modified electrode could reduce aggregation of bi-CoPc in aqueous solution, which was confirmed by the electronic absorption spectra in the visible region and images of transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The charge transport diffusion coefficient (D(ct)) and apparent heterogeneous electrode reaction rate constant (k(s)) for this modified electrode were estimated. The reduction of bi-CoPc ligand showed excellent electrocatalytic ability for the reduction of trichloroacetic acid (TCA) and catalytic current had a linear relationship with the concentration of TCA in the range of 3x10(-5)-7.5x10(-3) M. The reduction of bi-Co(III)Pc/bi-Co(II)Pc couple exhibited new pattern of catalytic reactivity in the reduction of oxygen. Peak current for the cathodic reduction of oxygen is proportion to the square root of the scan rate in the range of 5-1000 mV s(-1) in oxygen-saturated solution.

In cardiovascular research, electromagnetic fields generated by Riga plates are utilized to study or manipulate blood flow dynamics, which is particularly crucial in developing treatments for conditions such as arterial plaque deposition and understanding blood behavior under varied flow conditions. This research predicts the flow patterns of blood enhanced with gold and maghemite nanoparticles (gold-maghemite/blood) in an electromagnetic microchannel influenced by Riga plates with a temperature gradient that decays exponentially, under sudden changes in pressure gradient. The flow modeling includes key physical influences like radiation heat emission and Darcy drag forces in porous media, with the flow mathematically represented through unsteady partial differential equations solved using the Laplace transform (LT) method.

In order to achieve high quality production of vitamin E and plant sterols, it is necessary to conduct rapid and accurate detection of fungal toxins in their production raw material (vegetable oil deodorizer distillate, VODD). In this study, the flower-like biomimetic enzyme of silver-doped ZnO was synthesized through wet chemical method and in-situ reduction method. Based on above work, a flower-like biomimetic enzyme modified glass carbon electrode was fabricated, and its excellent detection capability against fungal toxins zearalenone was confirmed through electrochemical analysis.

Given the inherent challenges of the CO electroreduction (COER) reaction, solely from CO and HO, it is desirable to develop selective product formation pathways. This can be achieved by designing multimetallic nanocomposites that provide optimal CO coverage, allowing for tunability in the product formation. In this work, Ag and Zn codoped-SrTiO (ZAST) composite immobilized carbon black (CB)-modified GCE working electrode (ZAST@CB/GCE) was developed for the electrochemical conversion of CO to multicarbon products.
