In this study, the main goal was to prepare new modified electrodes to be used in the dopamine (DA) determination in the presence of ascorbic acid (AA). For this purpose, the surface of glassy carbon electrodes (GCE) were modified with poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT), polyoxometalate (POM) doped PEDOT, poly (9-amino fluorene) (P9AF) and poly(9-fluorene carboxylic acid) (PFCA) by using electrochemical polymerization method. The modified electrodes were used as a working electrode in the presence of excess AA in DA determination using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The results showed that PEDOT-POM electrodes enhanced the current response of DA compared to that of PEDOT modified electrode. The effect of pH on the performance of POMs was evaluated. Electrochemical oxidation of DA in the presence of AA on glassy carbon electrode modified with P9AF was also investigated. It was found that modified electrode with P9AF can separate the oxidation potential of AA and DA at pH=4 and pH=5 phthalate buffer media. On the other hand, PFCA modified GC electrode exhibited well-separated oxidation potentials for AA and DA in different buffer solutions. The limit of detection of DA in the presence of 15 mM AA at pH=4 was calculated as 5.2 µM in the concentration range from 0.03 mM to 1.5 mM. It was observed that the proposed electrode still has high stability when stored at dry ambient conditions for three days. Satisfactory results with good recovery values were obtained for the determination of DA in dopamine injection solution.

In this study, synthesis of a thiophene functionalized monomer, 1-benzyl-2,5-di(thiophene-2-yl)-1H-pyrrole (SNBS) was achieved. A new polythiophene derivative was synthesized by both chemical and electrochemical polymerization. The polymer synthesized via chemical oxidative method was soluble in organic solvents and characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (H-1 and C-13 NMR) spectroscopy. The average molecular weight of the chemically synthesized polymer was determined by gel permeation chromatography (G...

A study was carried out on the synthesis of Mg-Ni compounds as well as on the extraction of pure Ni and Mg from their oxides using the method of electro-deoxidation. The oxides sintered at 1200 degrees C were in the form of discrete phases NiO and MgO, suitably proportioned to yield Ni, MgNi2, Mg2Ni and Mg. The oxides were electrolyzed at 3.2 V in a eutectic mixture of CaCl2-NaCl solution maintained at a constant temperature (900-600 degrees C), using a graphite anode. The study has shown that NiO rich mixt...

In this study, Pr-TiO2 samples were synthesized using a sol-gel method. The effects of the calcination conditions on the structure and photocatalytic activity were examined, and the results are compared with pure TiO2 samples. The XRD analysis indicated that the anatase structure is stabilized by Pr, and rutile phase formation is inhibited by the addition of Pr. It was also observed that Pr doping enhances the surface area and inhibits the crystal growth. Photoluminescence analysis with 325 nm excitation sh...
