Introduction: In this study, solar exfoliated graphite oxide modified glassy carbon electrode was used for the anodic oxidation of epinephrine in a phosphate buffer medium at pH7. The modified electrode showed fast response and sensitivity towards Epinephrine Molecule (EP). The electrode was characterized electrochemically through Cyclic Voltammetry (CV) and Differential Pulse Voltammetry (DPV). Area of the electrode enhanced three times during modification and studies reveal that the oxidation process of EP occurs by an adsorption controlled process involving two electrons. The results showed a detection limit of 0.50 ± 0.01μM with a linear range up to 100 μM. The rate constant calculated for the electron transfer reaction is 1.35 s-1. The electrode was effective for simultaneous detection of EP in the presence of Ascorbic Acid (AA) and Uric Acid (UA) with well-resolved signals. The sensitivity, selectivity and stability of the sensor were also confirmed. Methods: Glassy carbon electrode modified by reduced graphene oxide was used for the detection and quantification of epinephrine using cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse voltammetry. Results: The results showed an enhancement in the electrocatalytic oxidation of epinephrine due to the increase in the effective surface area of the modified electrode. The anodic transfer coefficient, detection limit and electron transfer rate constant of the reaction were also calculated. Conclusion: The paper reports the determination of epinephrine using reduced graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode through CV and DPV. The sensor exhibited excellent reproducibility and repeatability for the detection of epinephrine and also its simultaneous detection of ascorbic acid and uric acid, which coexist in the biological system.

A MgB2microparticles modified glassy carbon electrode (MgB2/GCE) was fabricated by adhering microparticles of MgB2onto the electrode surface of GCE. It was used as a working electrode for the detection of paracetamol in 0.1 M KH2PO4aqueous solution during cyclic voltammetry. Use of the MgB2/GCE the oxidation process of paracetamol with a current enhancement significantly by about 2.1 times. The detection limit of this modified electrode was found to be 30 μM. The sensitivity under conditions of cyclic voltammetry is significantly dependent on pH, supporting electrolyte, temperature and scan rate. The current enhancement observed in different electrolytic media varied in the following order: KH2PO4> KCl > K2SO4> KBr. Interestingly, the oxidation of paracetamol using modified GC electrode remain constant even after 15 cycling. It is therefore evident that the MgB2modifiedGCelectrode possesses some degree of stability. A slope of 0.52 dependent of scan rate on current indicates that the system undergoes diffusion-controlled process.

A poly-o-phenylenediamine film modified glassy carbon electrode (PoPD/GC) was successfully prepared by cyclic voltammetry in acetate buffer solution. The polymerization mechanism of oPD is discussed. The impedance behavior and morphology of the PoPD membrane were characterized using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and scanning electron microscopy, respectively. It is discovered that the PoPD/GC prepared only in acetate buffer solution had dual electrocatalytic activity toward the oxidation and reduction of H2O2. The optimal buffer solution pH, scanning rate, monomer concentration, and number of scannings for film forming were 4.2, 0.05 V s−1, 6.0 mmol L−1, and 30, respectively. The linear ranges between the anodic (Δia) or cathodic (Δic) current and H2O2 concentration were 0.07−1.0 × 104 and 0.04−4.5 × 104 μmol L−1, respectively. The corresponding calibration curves were Δia (μA) = 8.03c (mmol L−1) + 6.36 (n = 18, R2 = 0.9989) and Δic (μA) = −5.52c (mmol L−1) − 0.77 (n = 18, R2 = 0.9990) with a detection limit of 0.03 and 0.02 μmol L−1 (S/N = 3), respectively. The PoPD/GC prepared in the optimal conditions showed good stability and quick response (<0.2 s) to H2O2, which was successfully applied to the determination of H2O2 in real water samples with satisfactory results.

A gold electrode was applied in the voltammetric determination of oseltamivir phosphate standard in 0.05 M NaHCO3. Oseltamivir phosphate as a standard and as a component of Tamiflu? capsule exhibited the identical cyclic voltammogram. The peaks originated from excipients in capsule do not appear under the applied electrochemical conditions. The electrochemical method for the qualitative determination of oseltamivir phosphate in Tamiflu? capsule by cyclic voltammetry was developed. The presence of oseltamivir phosphate as standard and as a content of Tamiflu? capsule in electrolyte as well as their concentrations were simultaneously checked by HPLC. The lack of the current/concentration dependency was established. The not pretreated glassy carbon electrode cannot be used for the determination of oseltamivir phosphate under identical experimental conditions presented for gold electrode.

Background: Measuring tartaric acid in liquid food, such as fruits or fruit products is of great importance for assessing the quality of the food. Objective: The aim of the research is to obtain polyaniline/Cu bismuthate nanoflake composites by an in-situ polymerization route for the electrochemical detection of tartaric acid. Methods: Polyaniline/Cu bismuthate nanoflake composites were prepared by in-situ aniline polymerizing route in aqueous solution. The obtained products were characterized by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) and high-resolution TEM (HRTEM), respectively. The electrochemical performance for tartaric acid detection has been investigated by cyclic voltammetry method using polyaniline/Cu bismuthate nanoflake composites modified glassy carbon electrode. Results: The nanocomposites comprise of tetragonal CuBi2O4 phase. Polyaniline particles with the size of less than 100 nm attach to the surface of the nanoflakes. A pair of quasi-reversible cyclic voltammetry peaks are located at -0.01 V and +0.04 V, respectively at the 20wt.% polyaniline/Cu bismuthate nanoflake composites modified glassy carbon electrode. The limit of detection is 0.58 µM with the linear range of 0.001-2 mM. The linear range increases from 0.005-2 mM to 0.001-2 mM and limit of detection decreases from 2.3 µM to 0.43 µM with increasing the polyaniline content from 10wt.% to 40wt.%. Conclusion: Comparing with the Cu bismuthate nanoflakes modified glassy carbon electrode, polyaniline/ Cu bismuthate nanoflake composites modified glassy carbon electrode shows enhanced electrochemical performance for tartaric acid detection.
