These compounds include phenolic acids, flavonols, anthocyanins, catechins, proanthocyanidins etc. They are very important because they offer numerous good benefits for human body. Electrochemical methods show a valuable technique for the determination of redox compounds in wine. In this review, a lot of attention is paid to carbon-based electrodes and to the voltammetric signals obtained in red and white wines using different modifiers for the electrode surface with nanoparticles and natural compounds used in the construction of biosensors. These electrodes are widely used due to their non-toxic properties, wide potential ranges, high conductivity and the possibility of use in aqueous and non-aqueous solutions. Different carbon electrodes are considered and briefly discussed. This review explores the current advancements in the electrochemical determination of most important polyphenolic compounds in wine using carbon electrodes. Also, this review gives a clear view about the oxidation peaks of various phenolic compounds in wine. It encompasses -the in-depth analysis of the different types of carbon electrodes used, such as glassy carbon, carbon paste, carbon nanotubes, screen-printed,graphene-based electrodes, biosensors and their respective benefits in polyphenolic compounds analysis. In conclusion, the electrochemical determination of polyphenolic compounds in wine using carbon electrodes offers a promising route for accurate and reliable analysis, with important implications for the wine industry and research.

However, one downside of additively manufactured electrodes is the frequent need to remove polymer from the electrode surface to reveal a triple-phase boundary in order for improved electrode performance to be realized. A common way to achieve this, is surface activation via chronoamperometry within an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution. However, it has not been investigated whether the same activation can be carried out effectively in solutions of sodium hydroxide in simple alcohols. Therefore, in this work, we study the effect of performing common chronoamperometric additive manufacturing electrode activation methodologies in methanolic and ethanolic solutions of 0.05 M sodium hydroxide and compare these to activation carried out in standard aqueous solutions at concentrations of both 0.05 M and 0.5 M. We show that the alcoholic solutions are more effective in removing polymer from the additive manufacturing electrode surface, but that this does not lead to any improvement in electrode currents, and furthermore appears to hinder electron transfer kinetics at the additive manufacturing electrode surface, with the latter effect shown to be related to differences in the surface functionality of the exposed carbon black filler particles.

This work compares the impact of MCH and PEG spacer molecules on the performance of a potentiometric NPY sensor. An NPY-specific DNA aptamer with thiol termination was immobilized onto a gold electrode surface. The performance of the sensor is compared when either an MCH- or PEG-based self-assembled monolayer is formed following aptamer immobilization. Backfilling the surface with alkanethiol spacer molecules like these is key for proper conformational folding of aptamer-target binding. Non-specific adhesion of NPY to the MCH-based sensor surface was observed via surface plasmon resonance (SPR), and then confirmed via potentiometry. It is then shown that PEG improves the sensor′s sensitivity to NPY compared to the surfaces with an MCH-based SAM. We achieve the detection of picomolar range NPY levels in buffer with a sensitivity of 36.1 mV/decade for the aptamer and PEG-based sensor surface, thus demonstrating the promise of potentiometric sensing of NPY for future wearable deployment.

This work proposes a Pb<sup>2+</sup> voltammetric sensor based on a carbon paste electrode modified with hydrothermal biochar (hydrochar, HC) obtained from malt bagasse waste (HC/CPE). The obtained hydrochar was characterized by zero-charge point, FT-IR, XRD and thermogravimetry.
