The role of the mediator for promoting electron transfer in biofuel cells and the techniques for improving the electric properties of biofuel cells, such as output potential, were discussed with some attracting research instances. Finally, the choke points for research of biofuel cell were explored, and the application prospect of biofuel cells was forecasted.


Study On Determination Of Iodine Ion At Chitosan Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode, Bin Liu, Xiang-Ying Sun, Jin-Rui Xu Feb 2004

Study On Determination Of Iodine Ion At Chitosan Modified Glassy Carbon Electrode, Bin Liu, Xiang-Ying Sun, Jin-Rui Xu

Journal of Electrochemistry

In this paper, a chitosan modified glassy carbon electrode was prepared by the method of covalent-bond reaction, and the anodic stripping voltammetric characteristics of iodine on the modified electrode was studied. The results showed that the modified electrode has higher adsorption and selectivity for I~-, and the sensitivity for I~- has been much improved in 0.1 mol·L~(-1) KH_2PO_4 solution (pH=4.0). The anodic stripping peak current of I~- on the modified electrode varied linearly with I~- concentration in the range of 2.0×10~(-6)~2.0×10~(-3) mol·L~(-1), and the detection limit reached 2.0×10~(-7) mol·L~(-1).
