Abstract:
The electrochemical behavior of indigo carmine (IC) at poly (glycine) modified carbon paste electrode (PGMCPE) was investigated by cyclic and differential pulse voltammetry. The oxidation peak of IC was observed in phosphate buffer of pH 6.5. The influence of different pH, scan rate, and concentration were analyzed. The probable reaction mechanism involved in the oxidation of IC was also proposed. Results showed that PGMCPE a remarkable electrocatalytic activity for the oxidation of IC under optimal conditions. The electrocatalytic response of the sensor was proportional to the IC concentration in the range of (2 × 10-6-1 × 10-5 M) and (1.5 × 10-5-6 × 10-5 M) with a limit of detection 11 × 10-8 M and limit of quantification 3.6 × 10-7 M. The modified electrode demonstrated many advantages such as simple preparation, high sensitivity, low detection of limit, excellent catalytic activity, short response time, and remarkable antifouling property toward IC and its oxidation product.

Their closest cousins are neutron stars, which are composed almost entirely of neutrons packed against each other, making them extremely dense. A neutron star has the same mass as the Sun but its diameter is only a few kilometers. Therefore, the escape velocity from their surface is close to the speed of light.
Not until the 1960s, when the first neutron...
