Neurotransmitter glycine in the nano gram range was analyzed using a paste electrode (PE) in cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square-wave stripping voltammetry (SWSV). An anodic peak caused by oxidation of the glycine ion appeared at the 0.4 V (versus Ag/AgCl/KCl) potential in a 0.1 M NH4H2PO4 electrolyte solution. At optimized conditions, the working range of the SWSV and CV concentration was found to be 5-60 ngL-1 glycine; precision of R2 = 0.9816 (SWSV) and 0.9986 (CV); and detection limit of 0.65 ngL-1 (5.82 × 10-12 molL-1) (S/N = 3). The optimized conditions were applied to an assay in a fish brain tissue and a living brain cell in real time.

A voltammetric analysis of doxycycline was developed using DNA immobilized onto a carbon nanotube paste electrode (PE). An anodic peak current was indicated at 0.2 V (versus Ag/AgCl) in a 0.1M $NH_4H_2PO_4$ electrolyte solution. The linear working range of the cyclic and square wave stripping voltammetry was obtained to $1-27ngL^{-1}$ with an accumulation time of 800 s. Final analytical parameters were optimized to be as follows: amplitude, 0.35 V; frequency, 500 Hz; and pH, 5.43. Here detection limit was found to be $0.45ngL^{-1}$, this result can be applied in foods systems and in the biological diagnostics

We synthesized polypyrrole (PPy) by electrolysis of the pyrrole monomer solution containing support electrolyte KCl and/or p-toluene sulfonic acid sodium salt (p-TS). The electrochemical behavior was investigated using cyclic voltammetry and AC impedance. In the case of using electrolyte p-75, the redox potential was about -0.3 V vs. Ag/AgCl reference electrode, while the potential was about 0 V for using electrolyte KCl. It is considered as the backbone forms a queue effectively by doping p-TS Therefore, it is possible to be arranged regularly. That leads to improvement in the electron hopping. The AC impedance plot gave a tent of betterment of mass transport. PPy doped with p-TS has improved in mass transport, or diffusion. That is because the PPy doped with p-TS has a good orientation, and is more porous than PPy with KCl.

Photoelectrochemical water splitting is considered as a promising method of transforming solar energy into chemical energy stored in the type of hydrogen. An n-type $WO_3$ semiconductor is one of the most promising photoanodes for hydrogen production from water splitting. Films annealed at lower temperatures consisted of amorphous, whereas films annealed above $500^{\circ}C$ comprised solely of monoclinic $WO_3$. In this study, we observed photoactivity of $WO_3$ as increasing thickness of $WO_3$. And it shows good photoacivity as thickness increases. Also we tried to improve photoactivity through surface modification and bulk modification by using hydrogen treatment and conducting polymer. The photocurrent was measured in potentiostatic method with the three electrode system. A Pt wire and Ag / AgCl electrode were used as the counter electrode and the reference electrode, respectively. photocurrent-time (I-T) curve was measured at a bias potential of 0.79 V.

Amorphous MnO$_2$$.$ nH$_2$O in 1M KOH aqueous electrolyte proves to be an excellent electrode for a faradic electrochemical capacitor cycled between -0.5 and +1.0 versus Ag/AgCl. In order to observe morphology and crystalline structure of MnO$_2$powder, we analyzed it by XRD and SEM. The effect of oxidation treatment on MnO$_2$electrode was observed by different oxidation voltages. A maximum capacitance of 364F/g was obtained by 1.1V oxidation treatment. This capacitance was attributed solely to a surface redox mechanism

We synthesized polypyrrole (PPy) nanotubules by oxidative polymerization of the pyrrole monomer within the pores of a polycarbonate template. The electrochemical behavior was investigated using cyclic voltammetry. The redox potential was about -0.5 V vs. Ag/AgCl reference electrode, while the potential was about 0 V for PPy film. It is considered as the backbone grows according to the pore wall. Therefore, it is possible to be arranged regularly. That leads to improvement in the electron hopping. By electrochemical doping of glucose oxidase (GOx) on PPy nanotubules, an enzyme electrode has been fabricated. The kinetic parameter of biochemical reaction with glucose was evaluated. The formal Michaelis constant and maximum current calculated by computer were about 11.4 mmol $dm^3$ and 170.85 A respectively. Obviously, an affinity for the substrate and current response of the PPy nanotubules enzyme electrode are rather good, comparing with that of PPy film.

The dissolved oxygen sensors with thick film type were fabricated for low cost products and the electrical properties were investigated in the different operating temperatures. Pt paste was used for working electrode and Ag/AgCl paste for reference electrode. The fabricated devices have fast response of current changes according to dissolved oxygen concentrations in the applied voltage of $0.6{\sim}0.8V$. This is expected to apply a chip and/or disposal dissolved oxygen sensors.

The redox properties of 2-amino-1-cyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylate anion (acdc) and its oxovanadium complex, $VO(acdc)_2$ have been investigated in dimethylformamide (DMF) with polarography and cyclic voltammetry. Bis(2-amino-1-cyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylate) oxovanadium(IV) exhibits two polarographic oxidation waves and two reduction waves in the potential range from +0.50V to - 2.4V vs. the Ag/AgCl (DMF) reference electrode. The second oxidation wave appeared at - 0.08V is found to be reversible and is attributed to the formation of $VO(acdc)_2\;^+$. The first reduction process (at - 0.60V) is also reversible and this reduction process is caused by the electrode process of formation of $VO(acdc)_2$-species. The half wave potential for the reduction, V(IV)$\to$V(III) is more positive for oxovanadium complexes containing sulfur donor atoms than other VO(IV) complexes having oxygen or nitrogen donor atoms.

A continuous potential pulse is applied to a silver-working electrode on a pulsed amperometric detector (PAD) for detection of free cyanide and sulfide. The moving phase is 0.1 M sodium hydroxide, 0.5 M sodium acetate and 5% (v/v) ethylenediamine mixture, and the flow rate is 0.7 mL/min. Optimized pulse conditions include a -200 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl reference electrode) detection potential(Ed) for 60 msec and 50 mV cleaning potential (Ec) for 120 msec. The silver working electrode surface is not poisoned by cyanide or sulfide, and the PAD maintains long-term stability without loss of sensitivity and reproducibility at these pulse conditions. The detection limit of cyanide and sulfide separated by ion chromatography using an anion exchange column is 0.1 ppm and 0.05 ppm, respectively.

An ultrasensitive and selective stripping voltammetric scheme for the determination of rhodium is described. By the use of combined accumulation and catalytic effects in formaldehyde-hydrochloric acid medium, substantial improvement in the limit of detection can be obtained. Optimal experimental conditions were found to be 0.42 M hydrochloric acid solution containing 0.008${\%}$ formaldehyde, an accumulation potential of -0.70 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) and an accumulation time of 20 s. The stripping mode was differential pulse voltammetry. In these conditions the limit of detection lies at 2 ${\times}$ l0$^{-12}$ M (0.21 ppt). The relative standard deviation at 5 ${\times}$ l0$^{-11}$ M was 4.9${\%}$ (n=5). There were no serious interferences from other platinum group metal ions being the tolerable amounts more than 500 times that of rhodium.
