Inkjet printable polyaniline-gold dispersions (2011)
Journal Article
Smyth, M. R., Lenhart, N., Crowley, K., Killard, A., & Morrin, A. (2011). Inkjet printable polyaniline-gold dispersions. Thin Solid Films, 519(13), 4351-4356. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.tsf.2011.02.045

Inkjet printable polyaniline-gold (PANI-Au) hybrid dispersions were synthesised using gold salt as oxidant to simultaneously induce chemical oxidative polymerisation of aniline and reduction of HAuCl4 in bulk aqueous solution. By varying the amount o... Read More about Inkjet printable polyaniline-gold dispersions.

Enhanced electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide on silver paste electrodes modified with surfactant and salt (2011)
Journal Article
Smyth, M. R., Gonzalez-Macia, L., Morrin, A., & Killard, A. (2011). Enhanced electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide on silver paste electrodes modified with surfactant and salt. Electrochimica Acta, 56(11), 4146-4153. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.electacta.2011.01.108

The modification of silver paste electrodes with a combination of dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid and KCl has been shown to lead to significant enhancements of the electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide. The catalytic enhancement was shown to be... Read More about Enhanced electrochemical reduction of hydrogen peroxide on silver paste electrodes modified with surfactant and salt.

Fibrinogen is a major cardiovascular disease risk factor and is an independent predictor of coronary heart disease and stroke. Normal reference levels are approximately 2 to 4 g/L. Elevated levels are associated with the occurrence of cardiovascular... Read More about Development of a point of care lateral flow device for measuring human plasma fibrinogen.

The application of conducting polymer nanoparticle electrodes to the sensing of ascorbic acid (2008)
Journal Article
