A simple and effective chemically modified electrode for the determination of cadmium(ii) was developed. The chemically modified electrode was prepared by modifying nano-TiO2/chitosan (nano-TiO2/CS) composite film onto a glassy carbon (GC) electrode. Compared with a bare GC electrode and a CS film-modified GC electrode, the nano-TiO2/CS composite film-coated GC electrode significantly improved the sensitivity of determining CdII. The effects of experimental parameters such as modifier composition in the GC electrode, pH of supporting electrolyte, accumulation potential and time were studied for analytical application. Under the optimized working conditions, the peak currents were linear with concentration over the range from 1.0 × 10–9 to 1.0 × 10–6 mol L–1 for CdII. The limit of detection is 2.0 × 10–10 mol L–1 CdII for 180-s accumulation. The application for the assay of trace levels of CdII in real water samples indicates that it is an economical and potent method.

Abstract An innovative method for the determination of isoniazid tablets is studied through electrochemical method for the modification of glassy carbon electrode (GCE). Polyoxomolybdate, with stable structures, has not been widely used for the determination of substance. In this study, the mentioned polyoxomolybdate was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), UV-vis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Atomic force microscope (AFM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and used to modify the glassy carbon electrode. The electrochemical performance of the polyoxomolybdate@GCE was investigated with cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), compared with the unmodified electrode, the proposed polyoxomolybdate modified electrode exhibited strong electro-catalytic activities towards isoniazid (INH). Under the optimized conditions, there was linear relationships between the DPV peak currents and the concentrations in the range of 1 × 10 -7 g/L to 3 × 10 -7 g/L for INH (R 2 = 0.9979), with the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.024 μg/L (based on S/N = 3). The modified electrode has proper reproducibility (RSD < 5%), stability, response time (< 3 min) and lifetime (up to 6 days).

This article describes an analytical procedure for the determination of copper in fuel samples using the modified graphite electrode basal pyrolysis (BPPGME) by tetrazolium salts: 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl-2Htetrazolium (MTT) Br]. The determination of metals in fuel is an issue of environmental relevance because it believes that these elements can be released into the atmosphere causing damage to the environment and health. Fuel samples (ethanol, biodiesel and gasoline) were previously digested in a microwave oven using nitric acid and peroxides (biodiesel) and only nitric acid (alcohol and gasoline). The metal ion studied reacted on the surface of the chemically modified electrode to produce marked changes in the corresponding voltammograms. In order to determine the species of interest the best results were at pH 5.0 for copper and pH 6.0 for other species. The concentration scale for copper was 2.0x10-6 at 1.25 X 10-5 mol L-1. The limit of detection in fuels of samples (ethanol, biodiesel or gasoline), by ARV was 2.5x10-6 mol L-1. The accuracy of the proposed technique was compared by providing similar results, ie the copper concentration in the samples analyzed by both techniques at a non-statistically different 95% certainty level.

A poly(Eriochrome Black T) chemically modified glassy carbon electrode modified with Eriochrome Black T was prepared by cyclic voltammetry. The modified electrode showed an excellent electrocatalytic activity in oxidation of noradrenaline (NA) and could separate its electrochemical responses from those of L-ascorbic acid (AA) and uric acid (UA). Differences of the oxidation peak potentials for NA-AA and UA-NA were about 150 mV. The responses to NA, AA and UA of the modified electrode are relatively independent. Using differential pulse voltammetry, the peak currents of NA at modified glassy carbon electrode increased linearly with the concentration of NA from 0.5 to 100 μmol l-1. The detection limit was 0.2 μmol l-1. With the modified electrode, UA could be selectively determined in the presence of AA. The method showing a wide linear dynamic range and excellent sensitivity was successfully applied to the determination of NA in pharmaceutical injections and various samples.
