Electrochemical Investigation Of The Interaction Of 2,4-D And Double Stranded Dna Using Pencil Graphite Electrodes, Gülşah Çongur Jan 2021

Electrochemical Investigation Of The Interaction Of 2,4-D And Double Stranded Dna Using Pencil Graphite Electrodes, Gülşah Çongur

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) is an auxinic herbicide used to control broadleaf weeds. It is also a threatening factor for not only aquatic life but also human health due to its genotoxicity and endocrine disruptive property. Herein, the interaction between 2,4-D and double stranded DNA was investigated by using single-use pencil graphite electrodes (PGE) in combination with electrochemical techniques. The detection mechanism was based on the monitoring of the changes at the guanine oxidation signal obtained before/after surface-confined interaction of 2,4-D and DNA at the surface of PGE. The electrochemical characterization of the interaction was studied by using microscopic and electrochemical …


Evaluation Of The Fuel Cell Performances Of Tio2/Pan Electrospun Carbon-Based Electrodes, Sema Aslan Jan 2021

Evaluation Of The Fuel Cell Performances Of Tio2/Pan Electrospun Carbon-Based Electrodes, Sema Aslan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Electrocatalytic effect of the untreated and TiO2+polyacrylonitrile (PAN) modified discarded battery coal (DBC) and pencil graphite electrodes (PGE) were evaluated in fuel cell (FC) applications. TiO2+PAN solution is coated on PGE and DBC electrodes by electrospinning. According to the FESEM and EDS characterizations, TiO2 and PAN nanofibers are found to be approximately 40 and 240 nm in size. TiO2+PAN/PGE showed the best FC performances with 2.00 A cm-2 current density and 5.05 W cm-2 power density values, whereas TiO2+PAN/DBC showed 0.68 A cm-2 current density and 0.62 W cm-2 power density values. Electrochemical characterizations of PGE and TiO2+PAN/PGE electrodes were …


Electrochemical Behavior And Voltammetric Determination Of Some Nitro-Substituted Benzamide Compounds, Özlem Sağlam, Ferah Cömert Önder, Tuğba Güngör, Mehmet Ay, Yusuf Di̇lgi̇n Jan 2018

Electrochemical Behavior And Voltammetric Determination Of Some Nitro-Substituted Benzamide Compounds, Özlem Sağlam, Ferah Cömert Önder, Tuğba Güngör, Mehmet Ay, Yusuf Di̇lgi̇n

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Voltammetric behaviors of six nitro-substituted benzamides, which are potential prodrug candidates for nitroreductase-based cancer therapy, were investigated using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The electrochemical behavior of aromatic nitro (ArNO$_{2})$ compounds by CV indicates that compounds involve various reduction/oxidation steps including the formation of aromatic nitro radical, nitroso, hydroxylamine, and amine groups. Applicability of the voltammetric determination of these prodrug candidates was studied by recording their DPVs, carried out in mixed media (Britton Robinson buffer solution $+$ DMF) at various pH values on a pencil graphite electrode (PGE). Results show that the PGE can offer a disposable, …


Application Of A Pencil Graphite Electrode For Voltammetric Simultaneous Determination Of Ascorbic Acid, Norepinephrine, And Uric Acid In Real Samples, Abdulkadi̇r Levent, Günay Önal Jan 2018

Application Of A Pencil Graphite Electrode For Voltammetric Simultaneous Determination Of Ascorbic Acid, Norepinephrine, And Uric Acid In Real Samples, Abdulkadi̇r Levent, Günay Önal

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A pencil graphite electrode (PGE) was used for the simultaneous detection of ascorbic acid (AA), norepinephrine (NE), and uric acid (UA) by differential pulse voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry. The anodic peaks of AA, NE, and UA in their mixture can be well separated in 0.1 M Britton--Robinson buffer solution at pH 4.0. The effects of various experimental parameters such as pH, scan rate, and voltammetric parameters on the voltammetric response of these compounds were investigated. Under optimum conditions, linear calibration graphs were obtained from the AA, NE, and UA concentration ranges, which were 100-800 nM, 20-170 nM, and 40-175 nM, …


Voltammetric Determination Of Famotidine On A Disposable Pencil Graphite Electrode, Iulia Gabriela David, Dana Elena Popa, Andreea-Alexandra Calin, Mihaela Buleandra, Emilia-Elena Iorgulescu Jan 2016

Voltammetric Determination Of Famotidine On A Disposable Pencil Graphite Electrode, Iulia Gabriela David, Dana Elena Popa, Andreea-Alexandra Calin, Mihaela Buleandra, Emilia-Elena Iorgulescu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The present paper describes the use of a disposable pencil graphite electrode (PGE) for the voltammetric determination of famotidine. Cyclic voltammetric studies using different supporting electrolytes emphasized an irreversible oxidation of famotidine on the PGE. The electrode process is diffusion-controlled and pH-dependent. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) in phosphate buffer solution of pH 6.81 was employed for famotidine's quantitative determination. The anodic peak current of famotidine varies linearly with the analyte concentration in the range 4.72 $\times $ 10$^{-7}$--4.95 $\times $ 10$^{-4}$ M. Detection and quantification limits were 1.51 $\times $ 10$^{-7}$ M and 5.04 $\times $ 10$^{-7}$ M famotidine, respectively. …


Simple And Rapid Voltammetric Determination Of Boron In Water And Steel Samples Using A Pencil Graphite Electrode, Lokman Li̇v, Nuri̇ Naki̇boğlu Jan 2016

Simple And Rapid Voltammetric Determination Of Boron In Water And Steel Samples Using A Pencil Graphite Electrode, Lokman Li̇v, Nuri̇ Naki̇boğlu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

This paper presents a simple, rapid, and accurate voltammetric method for determination of boron in water and steel samples using a disposable pencil graphite electrode. The oxidation of Tiron in the boron-Tiron complex in phosphate buffer at pH 7.5 was measured as a response. Type and concentration of supporting electrolyte, pH, ionic strength, Tiron concentration, scan rate, step amplitude, pulse amplitude, and pencil grade were investigated as the parameters affecting the peak current. The limit of detection (3s) was estimated as 84 $\mu $g/L. The relative standard deviation of the method was 4.6 for 1 mg B/L (N = 7). …
