Fabrication of electrochemical sensors for biological molecules and characterisation of anodes for seawater batteries

Abstract

Different industries, including the food sector, farming, environment, forensics, newlinepharmaceutical industry, etc. have come to rely heavily on electrochemistry. newlineEnergy storage and conservation, corrosion, electrochemical sensors and newlineindustrial electrolysis are some of the most practical electrochemistry-based newlinetechnologies with distinct social implications. The development of newlineelectrochemical sensors and energy storage technologies like seawater batteries newlinewere the main focus of the current investigations.The first four chapters deal with the electrochemical sensing of biomolecules. newlineThe sensors developed during the current research are all highly selective and newlinesensitive, and they are all simple to manufacture. They could also be developed newlinefor useful purposes. The last chapter deals with the choice of a typical commercial newlinemagnesium alloy to serve as the anode for seawater batteries. Seawater battery newlineAnode materials for seawater battery such as MgAZ31, MgAZ61, and MgAZ91 newlinehave been successfully characterized. The research revealed that AZ61 is the best newlineanode for seawater batteries. newline
