This work describes the selection and identification of DNA aptamers that bind with high affinity specificity to okadaic acid (OA), a lipophilic marine biotoxin accumulates in shellfish. The selected using systematic evolution ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) exhibited dissociation constants nanomolar range. aptamer highest was then used for fabrication label-free electrochemical biosensor detection. first immobilized on gold electrode self-assembly approach through Au-S...
Abstract Hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) is a layered material with high thermal and chemical stability ideal for ultrathin corrosion resistant coatings. Here, we report the resistance of Cu hBN grown by vapor deposition (CVD). Cyclic voltammetry measurements reveal that layers inhibit oxygen reduction. We find CVD reduces rate one order magnitude compared to bare Cu, suggesting this layer can be employed as an atomically thin corrosion-inhibition coating.
Abstract Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O ) is an oxidizing agent commonly used for various applications and available in aqueous solution a wide range of concentrations. This work describes the H electrogeneration process alkaline medium (KOH 1.0 mol L −1 ), using unmodified gas diffusion electrode (GDE) manufactured with Printex 6L carbon. The experiments were performed single‐compartment electrochemical cell equipped GDE as working electrode, which was fed N or at pressure 0.2 bar. Electrolysis...
Abstract Oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is an important electrochemical process for renewable energy conversion and storage applications such as fuel cells metal‐air batteries. ORR sluggish in kinetics requires a large amount of platinum group metal (PGM)‐based catalysts to facilitate its slow rate. Application precious metals raises the cost decreases competitivity these devices market. To address this challenge, PGM‐free have been intensively investigated alternative replace PGM‐based...
Mixed SnO2−RuO2 oxides were prepared by high-energy mechanical alloying of various proportions pure SnO2 and RuO2 powders. The physicochemical characterization the resulting materials was conducted X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), electrochemical surface analysis. It is shown through XRD analysis that a single-phase (tetragonal) (Sn−Ru)O2 solid solution formed over whole composition range, in which Sn4+ Ru4+ ions share same...
Stable PtAu alloy colloids with a wide range of compositions were prepared using pulsed laser ablation on single metal-mixture targets in water. The concentration Pt the alloys can be tuned by varying Pt/Au ratio targets, which are made compression molding mixture and Au powders at different ratios. Such fabricated nanoparticles (NPs) show face-centered cubic structure, their composition basically follows that corresponding targets. effect aqueous solution pH ablating fluence formation...
Stimuli-responsive drug delivery systems can release therapeutic agents when actuated by an appropriate stimulus, whether endogenous or exogenous. Interestingly, exogenous stimuli are completely dissociated from the patient's physiology and be precisely controlled externally in magnitude, space, time. They therefore constitute more reproducible means of controlling therapeutics appropriately responsive systems. One stimulus which has long attracted attention is application electric...
Diamond-like Fe<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> nanoparticle/graphene composites prepared by a facile and simple co-precipitation method exhibit outstanding electrochemical properties for LIBs/SIBs.
Grafting of polyarylene layers on the surface Pb electrodes improves their selectivity for CO<sub>2</sub> reduction to formate.
Honeycomb porous Pb films with a dendrite-like secondary structure growing along the [100]-axis were prepared by Dynamic Hydrogen Bubble Templating (DHBT) and used for electroreduction of CO<sub>2</sub>.
Thiolated self-assembled reduced graphene oxide films were decorated with gold nanoparticles for development of a label-free p53-antibody immunosensor.
