Scanning Electron Microscopy micrographs revealed that all deposits obtained from the acid and alkaline baths showed smooth morphology with fine grains and no cracks. The smoothest deposits were obtained at deposition current of − 2.05 mA cm⁻² for both baths. The X-ray diffraction patterns of Nickel deposits obtained at pH = 5 and 11 indicated phases of pure Ni with the following reflections Ni(200), Ni (220), Ni (311), and a lower crystallinity for the deposits obtained at pH = 11 compared to that obtained at pH = 5. Adherence tests showed that the Ni coatings produced adhered well to the steel substrate, irrespective of the pH and deposition current density.

Parabens are widely used as preservatives. Its use is already prohibited in Europe and the USA but remains permitted in Brazil. Even at low concentrations, parabens pose risks to human health, the environment, and animals. Ineffective water resource management and the limitations of traditional effluent treatment methods intensify this issue. This study investigated the potential of electrochemical and photo-assisted electrochemical technologies in degrading Phenonip™, an industrial preservative composed of a mixture of parabens and phenoxyethanol. Two types of commercial anodes were employed: boron-doped diamond (BDD) and the Dimensionally Stable Anode (DSA^®). The efficiency of these processes was assessed in relation to applied current density, with monitoring of organic carbon levels, contaminant concentrations, energy consumption, and pH. As expected, the time required for complete removal of all contaminants from the sample decreased with higher current densities. However, at elevated current densities, a noticeable increase in energy consumption was observed. In the case of the photo-assisted electrochemical system, an interesting trend emerged: energy consumption decreased as current density increased, attributed to the significantly shorter time needed for complete contaminant removal compared to the traditional electrochemical process. Furthermore, a significant shift in the kinetic behavior of these compounds removal was observed once nearly 80% of the parabens were removed, indicating an alteration in the rate-limiting step or reaction mechanism of the degradation process. These results provide valuable insights into the potential applications of these innovative methods in addressing the urgent challenge of removing contaminants from industrial effluents.</p><h3 data-test=\"abstract-sub-heading\">Graphical abstract</h3>\u0000","PeriodicalId":665,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Solid State Electrochemistry","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2024-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142226502","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"化学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is caused by the protozoan <i>Trypanosoma cruzi</i>, which is transmitted by triatomine insects known as kissing bugs. Considering the treatment effectiveness, early detection of the disease is crucial to control its impact on public health. In this study, we developed a low-cost immunosensor in which pencil graphite electrodes (PGEs) were functionalized by electropolymerization of monomers 2-aminobenzamide (2AB), 4-aminobenzoic acid (4ABA), 4-hydroxybenzoic acid (4HBA), 4-hydroxyphenylacetic acid (4HPA), and 4-aminophenylacetic acid (4APA). Electrochemical and morphological studies confirmed the successful modification of PGEs for all investigated compounds. The bioreceptor IBMP 8.1, a recombinant antigen, was immobilized on each functionalized platform. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy identified poly(4HPA) as the most effective material for functionalizing PGEs and consequently recognizing the anti-<i>T. cruzi</i> antibodies, leading to their selection for subsequent optimization of the transducer. The use of silver nanoparticles to improve sensitivity was also investigated. The conditions for immobilizing the antigen, blocking the protein, and the dilution and response time of the device were optimized. Cross-reactivity studies with other diseases have demonstrated the high specificity of immunosensors. Reproducibility and repeatability tests showed relative standard deviation values of 7.3% (± 2.4) and 5.6% (± 1.8), respectively, for the 20 sensors. Furthermore, the stability over a three-month period (<i>n</i> = 20) showed a 32% decrease in response at 25 °C and a 12% decrease at 4 °C.
