Bio-Sensing of Cadmium(II) Ions Using Staphylococcus aureus
(MDPI, 2011-11-08)
Cadmium, as a hazardous pollutant commonly present in the living environment, represents an important risk to human health due to its undesirable effects (oxidative stress, changes in activities of many enzymes, interactions ...
Improved Electrochemical Detection of Zinc Ions Using Electrode Modified with Electrochemically Reduced Graphene Oxide
(MDPI, 2016-01-01)
Increasing urbanization and industrialization lead to the release of metals into the biosphere, which has become a serious issue for public health. In this paper, the direct electrochemical reduction of zinc ions is studied ...
Determination of Zinc, Cadmium, Lead, Copper and Silver Using a Carbon Paste Electrode and a Screen Printed Electrode Modified with Chromium(III) Oxide
(MDPI, 2017-08-01)
In this study, the preparation and electrochemical application of a chromium(III) oxide modified carbon paste electrode (Cr-CPE) and a screen printed electrode (SPE), made from the same material and optimized for the simple, ...
Amalgam electrode-based electrochemical detector for on-site direct determination of cadmium(II) and lead(II) from soils
(MDPI, 2017-08-01)
Toxic metal contamination of the environment is a global issue. In this paper, we present a low-cost and rapid production of amalgam electrodes used for determination of Cd(II) and Pb(II) in environmental samples (soils ...
The Application of Curve Fitting on the Voltammograms of Various Isoforms of Metallothioneins–Metal Complexes
(MDPI, 2017-03-01)
The translation of metallothioneins (MTs) is one of the defense strategies by which
organisms protect themselves from metal-induced toxicity. MTs belong to a family of proteins
comprising MT-1, MT-2, MT-3, and MT-4 classes, ...
Specific Magnetic Isolation of E6 HPV16 Modified Magnetizable Particles Coupled with PCR and Electrochemical Detection
(MDPI, 2016-05-01)
The majority of carcinomas that were developed due to the infection with human
papillomavirus (HPV) are caused by high-risk HPV types, HPV16 and HPV18. These HPV types
contain the E6 and E7 oncogenes, so the fast detection ...
From chip-in-a-lab to lab-on-a-chip: towards a single handheld electronic system for multiple application-specific lab-on-a-chip (ASLOC)
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-03-25)
We present a portable, battery-operated and application-specific lab-on-a-chip (ASLOC) system that can
be easily configured for a wide range of lab-on-a-chip applications. It is based on multiplexed electrical
current ...
Construction of an acetylcholinesterase sensor based on synthesized paramagnetic nanoparticles, a simple tool for neurotoxic compounds assay
(MDPI, 2017-04-30)
Magnetic particles (MPs) have been widely used in biological applications in recent years as a carrier for various molecules. Their big advantage is in repeated use of immobilized molecules including enzymes. Acetylcholinesterase ...
Voltammetry as a Tool for Characterization of CdTe Quantum Dots
(MDPI, 2013-06-27)
Electrochemical detection of quantum dots (QDs) has already been used in numerous applications. However, QDs have not been well characterized using voltammetry, with respect to their characterization and quantification. ...
Influence of liposomal platinum cytostatics on cancer cells by voltammetric methods
(TANGER, 2018-03-31)
Aim of this work deals with closing of cisplatin into liposomes, the study of their stability and interaction with cancer cell lines. Commercial cisplatin cytostatic was encapsulated into three types of liposomes (L8, L10 ...
