Determination of Labile Iron at Low nmol L−1 Levels in Estuarine and Coastal Waters by Anodic Stripping Voltammetry

A new method is presented for the determination of electrochemically labile iron in estuarine and coastal seawater. The method is based on differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry (DPASV) at a rotating silver‐alloy disk electrode. The voltammetric parameters include a plating potential of ?1.5 V and an activation potential of ?5 V for 10s; the seawater is at the original sample pH. The main finding is the presence of a peak for low nmol L^?1 levels of iron at ?0.55 V ascribed to elemental iron deposited on the bare silver alloy electrode. The peak increased linearly with the iron concentration between <1 and 14 nmol L^?1 using a 900 s plating time. At higher concentrations an additional iron peak appeared at ?0.7 V which was also found to increase linearly with the iron concentration but at a higher concentration range from ca. 15 to 90 nmol L^?1 using a 300 s plating time. The second peak was ascribed to iron deposited on iron. Additions of chelating agents (EDTA and a siderophore) to seawater caused the iron peak to be masked indicating that this method is suitable for iron speciation as only the electrochemically labile fraction is determined. The detection limit was 0.3 nmol L^?1 using a 900 s plating time. The method was used to determine iron in the range of 5 to 50 nmol L^?1 in samples from the Mersey estuary near Liverpool and its potential use for in situ monitoring was demonstrated by using it to monitor labile iron (at 2–3 nmol L^?1) over a period of 4 days at 1 h intervals in coastal waters in the Trondheim fjord, Norway.     

Enantioselective, potentiometric membrane electrodes based on cyclodextrins: application for the determination of R-baclofen in its pharmaceutical formulation

Two enantioselective, potentiometric membrane electrodes based on α- and γ-cyclodextrins were proposed for the assay of R-baclofen. The slopes of the electrodes were 59.50 and 51.00 mV/pR-baclofen for α- and γ-cyclodextrin-based electrodes, respectively. The detection limits of the proposed electrodes were 7 × 10⁻⁹ mol l⁻¹ for α-cyclodextrin-based electrode and 1.44 × 10⁻¹⁰ mol l⁻¹ for γ-cyclodextrin-based electrode. The enantioselectivity was determined over S-baclofen. The proposed electrodes can be employed for the assay of R-baclofen raw materials and its pharmaceutical formulation, Norton-Baclofen^® tablets. The surfaces of the electrodes are stable and easily renewable by polishing on alumina paper.

Effect of Electrode Pattern on the Column Structure and Yield Stress of Electrorheological Fluids

For electrorheological (ER) suspensions, the aggregate structures of particles were observed in electric fields by the use of transparent cells with different electrode patterns. Although the suspension is dispersed to noninteracting particles without electric fields, many aggregates are formed on the electrode surface in electric fields. Since the dipole–dipole interactions cause chain structures of particles and equilibrium conformations of chains are always aligned with electric field, the aggregates indicate the presence of columns spanning the electrode gap. The particle concentration in columns which are developed between parallel-plate electrodes is about 22 vol %. In striped electrodes, the particles construct striped aggregates along the electrodes and no particles remain in the insulating region. The particle concentration in striped aggregates is about 35 vol %. The nonuniformity of electric field is responsible for the high particle concentration. The increase in particle concentration of column lead to the high yield stress of electrified suspension. Therefore, the ER performance of suspension as an overall response can be improved by the electrode design.     

Preparation and Characterization of Graphite‐Epoxy Composite Modified with Zinc Hexacyanoferrate and Their Electrochemical Behaviour in Presence of Substituted Anilines

The growth of zinc hexacyanoferrate (ZnHCF) hybrid film on the surface of graphite‐epoxy composite (GEC) electrodes was demonstrated by cyclic voltammetry. Surface morphology of the hybrid film was investigated by using scanning electron microscopy. The effect of the type of monovalent cations on the redox behaviour of hybrid film was also studied. This effect indicated that the radius of the hydrated cation mainly determines the ion permeability of the film.     

A miniaturized and integrated galvanic cell for the potentiometric measurement of ions in biological liquids

A procedure for an all-plastic electrochemical cell comprising miniaturized planar indicator and reference electrodes is described. All electrodes are based on conducting polymers, are fully integrated, and contain no internal electrolyte. The reference microsensors were deposited via electrochemical polymerization from a water solution containing the monomer 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) or 1-methylpyrrole (MPy) and a biochemical buffer 3-(N-morpholino) propanesulfonic acid [MOPS], 2-(N-morpholino) ethanesulfonic acid [MES], or 2-hydroxy-5-sulfobenzoic acid [SSA]). Ion-sensitive microelectrodes were prepared by the deposition of the ion-sensitive membrane solution (Ca²⁺, K⁺, and Cl⁻) directly onto the mediating poly-EDOT (PEDOT), PEDOT–SSA, PEDOT–MES, PEDOT–MOPS, or poly-MPy–MOPS layers.     

Local electron transfer rate measurements on modified and unmodified glassy carbon electrodes

A natural and artificial distribution of electron transfer activity on glassy carbon electrodes can be observed and quantified by the use of scanning electrochemical microscopy (SECM). A large (sevenfold) spread in rate constant is found for randomly sampled sites on polished, untreated glassy carbon surfaces. Direct-mode oxidation with the SECM tip was used to produce small regions of oxidized carbon on a polished surface. A large increase in electron transfer rate for the Fe(II/III) ion is observed on the locally oxidized carbon surface in comparison to the unoxidized region. Rate constant measurements made along a line profiles the transition from unoxidized to oxidized surfaces. SECM images of defect sites show reaction–rate variations. Rate constants measured at several locations of the defective surface allows discrimination between the kinetic and topographic components of the SECM image.

Nickel electrode modified by N,N-<Emphasis Type="Italic">bis</Emphasis>(salicylidene)phenylenediamine (Salophen) as a catalyst for methanol oxidation in alkaline medium

The electrocatalytic oxidation of methanol studied at the surface of nickel disc electrode coated with N,N-bis(salicylidene)phenylenediamine (Salophen) legend in 0.10 M NaOH solution using cyclic voltammetry. The results showed that the Ni-salophen layer formed at the surface of electrode behaves as an efficient electrocatalyst for the oxidation of methanol in alkaline medium. The thermal analysis of Ni-salophen complex studied at temperature ranges 0–800°C in argon atmosphere. Also, FTIR was employed to prove the formation of complex on the modified electrode surface. Moreover, the effects of various parameters such as oven temperature, methanol concentration, NaOH concentration and media temperature on electro-oxidation of methanol were investigated. The kinetic parameters such as activation energy and Tafel slope were calculated for methanol oxidation on the modified electrode surface.
