Este trabalho descreve a preparação de eletrodo de pasta de carbono (EPC) em minicavidade de contato sólido e sua avaliação quando a pasta de carbono contém ou não partículas sub-micormétricas de SiO2(Eu3+ 2%) e SiO2(Eu3+ 2%)-lisina. Nestes estudos, medidas de voltametria cíclica e impedância eletroquímica foram realizadas em PBS (0,1 mol L-1 pH 7,4) contendo as espécies redox Fe(CN)6-3/-4. Os resultados de impedância foram interpretados baseados na reação de transferência de carga envolvendo as espécies Fe(CN)6-3/-4 e/ou oxigênio em frequências mais altas e, difusão das espécies eletroativas e características da pasta de carbono a baixas frequências. EPC-minicavidade é apropriado para eletroanálises usando pasta de carbono modificada.

OBJETIVOS: Trabalho prospectivo, randomizado para comparar a eficácia e a segurança do cateter irrigado em relação ao cateter com eletrodo distal de 8 mm para ablação com radiofreqüência (RF) do flutter atrial. MÉTODOS: Em 52 pacientes consecutivos referidos para tratamento do flutter atrial típico, a ablação do istmo cavotricuspídeo (Ist-CT) foi realizada com cateter de irrigação fechada (n=26) ou com cateter de eletrodo distal de 8 mm (n=26). Os pulsos de RF foram aplicados ponto a ponto por 60 segundos com potência limitada a 50 w com o cateter irrigado e por controle de temperatura (60ºC, 70 w) com cateter de 8 mm. O critério de fim do procedimento foi a obtenção de bloqueio bidirecional do Ist-CT. RESULTADOS: O bloqueio Ist-CT foi obtido em 98,1% dos pacientes. O "crossover" ocorreu em quatro pacientes do grupo com cateter irrigado. Não se encontrou diferença estatística significante em relação aos parâmetros da ablação, tais como tempo total de aplicação de RF (591,1±309,0s vs 486,2±250,8s), duração do procedimento (86,4 ± 23,6 vs 78,1±22,5min) e tempo de fluoroscopia (17,0±6,7 vs 15,4±4,6min) entre os dois grupos. Durante seguimento médio de 10,6 meses, um paciente do grupo irrigado apresentou recorrência do flutter atrial típico. CONCLUSÃO: A ablação do Ist-CT resultou ser efetiva e segura para o controle do flutter atrial com ambas as técnicas empregadas (cateter com eletrodo distal de 8 mm e cateter irrigado). A complexidade técnica do cateter irrigado proporciona menor competitividade.

Relatamos caso de implantação anômala de eletrodo de marca-passo VVI no ventrículo esquerdo (VE), diagnosticada durante avaliação de rotina, dois anos pós-implante. Trata-se de mulher de 65 anos e soropositiva para doença de Chagas. O eletrocardiograma (ECG) apresentava padrão de bloqueio do ramo direito. A radiografia de tórax em perfil mostrou trajeto com curvatura posterior do eletrodo. No ecocardiograma transtorácico, o diagnóstico final mostrou cateter que penetrava o átrio direito, atravessava o septo interatrial e descia pelo átrio esquerdo e orifício valvar mitral para se implantar na parede lateral do VE. Abordam-se os seguintes aspectos relacionados: possíveis trajetos de implantação, quadro clínico, radiológico, eletrocardiográfico, ecocardiográfico, complicações e opções terapêuticas.

In this paper is presented electrochemical evidences of the influence of the light on the electrochemical behavior of nickel electrode in diluted sulfuric acid. The current densities related with the electrooxidation of the metal decreases when the electrode is under illumination. The corrosion potential, Ecorr , shift to a more positive value in this condition. This effect was observed with polychromatic light and with different wavelength glass filters such as 700 nm and 520 nm. It was observed that increasing the temperature of the solution, the current densities related with cathodic and anodic processes, increases instead of decreases. The activation energy related with the electrooxidation of the electrode was higher under illumination than in the dark. It is suggested that this behavior may be related or with a photo-inhibition effect either with dessorption of adsorbed water involved in the electrooxidation mechanism.

The construction of a tubular hydrogen ion-selective potentiometric electrode without inner reference solution, based on the tridodecylamine (TDDA) ionophore, and its evaluation in a flow system are described. TDDA was dissolved in 2-nitrophenyl octyl ether, dispersed in a PVC membrane and applied directly to a conducting support which consisted of an epoxy resin and graphite mixture. The electrode was designed with a tubular geometry to effort facilities to be coupled as part of a flow injection network. The main working characteristics such as response time, linear pH range, selectivity and life time were evaluated and compared with those obtained which a conventionally shaped electrode based on the same sensor. The electrode showed a slope of 51-52 mV dec-1 within a linear pH range from 4.0 up to 12.0.

The alizarin red S (ARS) has been used as a spectrophotometric reagent of several metals for a long time. Now this alizarin has been used as modifier agent of electrodes, for voltammetric analyses. In this work cyclic voltammetry experiments was accomplished on closed circuit, with the objective of studying the voltammetric behavior of alizarin red S adsorbed and of its copper complex, on the surface of the pyrolytic graphite electrode. These studies showed that ARS strongly adsorbs on the surface of this electrode. This adsorption was used to immobilize ions copper(II) from the solution.

This study presents an automated system for potentiometric determination of free and total cyanide which employs a homogeneous membrane tubular ion-selective electrode. After the electrode is assembled, it is connected to a system composed of 3 three-way solenoid valves, sample line, carrier line, acid stream, and gas diffusion chamber. A Turbo Pascal® computer program, developed specifically for this task, automatically performs all the steps involved in data acquisition and processing. The proposed analytical procedure offers operational simplicity, since detection is performed by a tubular electrode, whose assembly is fast and easy. The system has shown reproducibility (r.s.d. < 0.5%, n=6) and high speed (30 readings/hour); it is efficient for determination of free and total cyanide in waste waters of starch processing plants. The detection limit was 1.2x10-5 and 1.5x10-5 mol L-1, for determination of free and total cyanide, respectively. The linear response range was between 1.2x10-5 and 1.0x10-2 mol L-1 for free cyanide and between 1.5x10-5 and 1.0x10-2 for total cyanide.

This paper presents some results on the employ of recycled graphite electrode obtained from used common 1.5 V batteries in the preparation of modified electrode and the electrocatalytical hydrogenation of benzaldehyde and of n-valeraldehyde. This inexpensive and easy to obtain electrode was prepared by coating it with a 1:1 mixed film of poly-(allylfenil ether): poly-[allyl p-(2-ethylammonium) benzene ether] and introduction of dispersed platinum particles by ion exchange and reduction of PtCl4-2. Electroreduction of H+ from aqueous H2SO4 using the proposed electrode hydrogenated the substrates in a way comparable with that of vitreous carbon electrode.

UNS S31254 SS electrodes have been built to substitute platinum in conductimetric titrations. The electrodes were tested in both acid-basic titration (chloridric acid and sodium hydroxide) and precipitation titration (sodium chloride and argentum nitrate as titrant). The practical application was exemplified from conductimetric tritations of HF ¾ HNO3 mixtures used in metalurgical industry to passivate stainless steels. The results were compared with those obtained using commercial platinum electrodes. The equivalent volumes obtained were comparable within 3% experimental error. Its application depends on the nature of electrolyte. These results have shown that stainless steel, less expensive than platinum (about three order of magnitude), can substitute platinum electrodes in routine analyses and didactic laboratories.

The anodic voltammetric behavior of 4-chlorophenol (4-CF) in aqueous solution has been studied on a Boron-doped diamond electrode using square wave voltammetry (SWV). After optimization of the experimental conditions, 4-CF was analyzed in pure and natural waters using a Britton-Robinson buffer with pH = 6.0 as the supporting electrolyte. Oxidation occurs at 0.80 V vs Ag/AgCl in a two-electron process controlled by adsorption of the species. The detection limits obtained were 6.4 µg L-1 in pure water and 21.5 µg L-1 for polluted water taken from a local creek, respectively. The combination of square wave voltammetry and diamond electrodes is an interesting and desirable alternative for analytical determinations.

The present experiment describes the preparation, characterization of n-butyl(pyridil)cobaloxime complex and its electrochemical property. The infrared and uv-visible absorption spectra were used to characterize the complex obtained. The infrared spectrum of the compound showed characteristics bands that indicated the formation of the Co-C chemical bond formation. The electronic absorption spectrum in acetonitrile showed transition bands attributed to p-p*, metal-to-ligand charge transfer, d-d transitions and charge transfer Co-C. The electrochemical property was investigated by the pulse differential voltammetry technique. Two oxidation processes: Co(I)/Co(II) at -423 mV and Co(II)/Co(III) at 752 mV were observed.

The aim of this work was to optimize the preparation of electrodes with riboflavin (RF) immobilized on a silica surface modified with niobium oxide and carbon paste. Electrode preparation was optimized employing a factorial design consisting of two levels and three factors. The electrochemical properties of immobilized RF were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. The factorial analysis was carried out analysing the current intensity (Ipa). It was possible to optimize the electrode to get the best reversibility in the redox process, i. e. the lowest separation between anodic and cathodic peak potentials and a current ratio close to unity. The concentration of supporting electrolyte has a small effect. The proportion has the highest effect and the interaction factor between proportion and mixture has also a significant effect on the current intensity.
