Resumen
BERBEJILLO, J. et al. Topographic Characterization of Disposable Carbon Pencil Modified Electrodes. Port. Electrochim. Acta [online]. 2004, vol.22, n.4, pp.375-385. ISSN 0872-1904.
Carbon pencil electrodes are proposed as supporting material for the fabrication of disposable devices through surface modification by bismuth plating and polyaniline formation. The surface characteristics were assessed by fractal analysis under semi-infinite linear diffusion employing a soluble molecular probe, and scanning electron microscopic analysis. The results indicate that the surface topography for bismuth-modified electrodes corresponds to a 2-dimensional smooth surface, while for polyaniline-modified electrodes, a surface fractal dimension of 2.76 was obtained. These topographic characteristics indicate that bismuth-modified carbon electrodes are suitable for anodic stripping analysis, and polyaniline ones, due to the surface irregularities, may result a good supporting material for biomolecules attachment.
