| Variety
of Working Electrodes |
Features and Applications |
|
Platinum electrode (PTE)
|
Conventional electrode, which has hydrogen adsorptive wave,
used for H2O2 and oxides
detection
|
| Gold electrode (AUE) |
Conventional electrode, which has no hydrogen adsorption
wave, used for thiols detection |
| Glassy carbon electrode (GCE) |
Chemically stable electrode despite its relatively
large
over-potentials of oxygen and hydrogen evolutions |
| Silver electrode (AGE) |
For cyanide and sulfide detection |
| Carbon paste electrode (CPE) |
Mixed with enzyme etc. to make modified electrodes |
| Nickel electrode (NIE) |
Chemically modified to detect amino acids |
| Palladium electrode (PDE) |
Used to study the process of adsorption and desorption of
hydrogen |
Plastic formed carbon electrode
(PFCE) |
Its highly-oriented graphite edge is exposed to the surface
with cost effective, similar feature of HOPG |
