The electrochemical oxidation of hydroxylamine on the surface of a carbon paste electrode modified with carbon nanotubes and 2,7-bis(ferrocenyl ethyl)fluoren-9-one is studied. The electrochemical response characteristics of the modified electrode toward hydroxylamine and phenol were investigated. The results showed an efficient catalytic activity of the electrode for the electro-oxidation of hydroxylamine, which leads to lowering its overpotential. The modified electrode exhibits an efficient electron-mediating behavior together with well-separated oxidation peaks for hydroxylamine and phenol. Also, the modified electrode was used for determination of hydroxylamine and phenol in some real samples.

A carbon paste electrode (CPE) was modified by incorporation of graphene nano sheets and a ferrocene derivative. The modified electrode showed an excellent electrocatalytic effect on the oxidation of epinephrine. In phosphate buffer solution (PBS) of pH 7.0, the oxidation current increased linearly with concentration of epinephrine in the range of 0.05–550.0 µM and a detection limit (3σ) 27.0 nM was obtained for epinephrine. Then the modified electrode was used to determine epinephrine in an excess of uric acid and folic acid by SWV.
