Tetrachloroauric acid (HAuCl4·3H2O, 99.9%), sodium citrate dihydrate (99%), and rhodamine 6G were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich (St. Louis, MO, USA). Sodium hydroxide (99%), hydrogen peroxide (37 vol%), crystal violet, nitric acid and hydrochloric acid were acquired from Chimmed (Moscow, Russia). All chemicals were used as received without further purification. Deionized water with resistivity of no less than 18 MΩ × cm (Simplicity UV, Millipore, USA) was used to prepare all aqueous solutions. Glassware was cleaned before use by soaking in freshly prepared aqua regia and rinsing with deionized water.

(±) α-Lipoamide (LPA) (96%) (CAS 940-69-2) was purchased from Toronto Research Chemicals (Toronto, ON, Canada). Tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) (ECOS, high purity grade, Moscow, Russia), ethanol (EtOH) (95%, Chimmed, analytical grade, Moscow, Russia), (3-mercaptopropyl)trimethoxysilan (MPTMOS) (95%) (CAS 4420-74-0), (Aldrich, St. Louis, MO, USA), (3-aminoporopyl)triethoxysilane (APTEOS) (99%) (CAS 919-30-2) (Aldrich, Kenilworth, NJ, USA), methyltrimetoxysilane (MTMOS) (98%+)(CAS 1185-55-3) (Acros Organics, New Jersey, NJ, USA), and 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) (CAS 1898-66-4) (Tokyo Chemical Industry Co., LTD, Tokyo, Japan) were used without further purification. Sodium dihydrogen phosphate (NaH2PO4·2H2O) and disodium hydrogen phosphate (Na2HPO4·12 H2O) (Chimmed, analytical grade, Moscow, Russia) were used to prepare buffer solutions with pH 6.0, 6.5, 6.8, and 7.4. Citric acid (Chimmed, analytical grade, Moscow, Russia), sodium hydroxide (Chimmed, analytical grade, Moscow, Russia), and hydrochloric acid (Acros, for analysis, 37%, Geel, Belgium) (CAS 7647-01-0) were used to prepare buffer solution with pH 1.6. The buffer solutions were prepared using doubly distilled deionized water.

Ultrapure deionized water (Milli-Q®, 18 MΩ cm, Millipore, Burlington, MA, USA) was used to prepare all solutions. All chemicals used were of at least analytical grade. Inorganic compounds (NaOH, HCl, KCl, KH2PO4, K2HPO4) were obtained from Chimmed (Russia). Folin and Ciocalteu’s phenol reagent, 2,2′-azobis (2-amidino-propane) dihydrochloride (AAPH), fluorescein, 6-hydroxy-2,5,7,8-tetra-methylchroman-2-carboxylic acid (Trolox), hydroxybenzoic acid (HBA), vanillic acid, syringic acid, gallic acid, fumaric acid, ferulic acid, sinapic acid, ascorbic acid, and vitamin E were procured from Sigma-Aldrich (Burlington, MA, USA). Standard samples of HS, including Suwannee River humic acid (SRHA) and fulvic acid (SRFA) and dissolved organic matter (SRDOM), were kindly provided by I.V. Perminova, coordinator of the Russian chapter of the International Humic Substances Society (IHSS, St. Paul, MN, USA). Commercially available coal humic materials CHA-AGK and CHA-ALD were purchased from Biotechnology Ltd. (Moscow, Russia) and Sigma-Aldrich (Burlington, MA, USA), respectively.

Synthesis of Nitrogen-Doped Carbon Nanotube Catalyst

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
The synthesis of the cathode CNTN catalyst involves several sequential stages. First, 400 mg of initial CNTs (Nanotechcenter LLC, Tambov, Russia) was placed in a flask under reflux; 200 mL of 1 M NaOH (Chimmed LLC, Moscow, Russia) was added. The mixture was kept for 1 h at 100 °C under continuous stirring using a magnetic stirrer. Further, the functionalized CNTs were washed with deionized water until neutral pH was reached. The resulting precipitate was dried in a vacuum oven at 90 °C until completely dry. In the next stage, CNTs were mixed with melamine (Alfa Aesar, Ward Hill, MA, USA) as a nitrogen precursor at a ratio of 1:0.7, followed by milling in a ball mill for 1 h at 800 rpm. The resulting mixture was placed in a quartz tube and subjected to thermal treatment in an Ar atmosphere at 600 °C for 1 h. The nanotubes obtained following nitrogen doping were designated as CNTN.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
