In this paper the effect of solvent induced chemical surface enhancements upon graphitic screen-printed electrodes (SPEs) is explored. Previous literature has indicated that treating working electrode a SPE with N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) offers improvements within electroanalytical response, resulting in 57-fold increment area compared to their unmodified counterparts. The protocol involves two steps: (i) placed into DMF for selected time, and (ii) it cured an oven at time temperature....

This paper describes the preparation, characterization and electroanalytical application of a composite consisting titanium phosphate modified with nickel hexacyanoferrate. Titanium (TiPh) was formed from reaction isopropoxide H3PO4 deionized water. Next, TiPh performed metal ion (Ni+2) potassium Hexacyanoferrate, designated as TiPhNIHCF. Spectroscopic techniques such vibrational spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), diffuse reflectance cyclic voltammetry were used to characterize...
