Original Abstract

An area of miniature electrochemical sensors for measurement in liquid solutions is described in this paper. The aim of this work is a development of a sensor for trace determination of heavy metals that are dissolved in water solution. A new amperometric sensor substrate was developed to be suitable for measurement using different working electrode material. The sensor is realized using thick film technology. There was prepared several different carbon nanotubes based working electrode materials and deposited on the sensor substrate in this work. All the sensors were measured using cadmium chloride sample solution addition into a potassium chloride buffer solution. Finally the output current response and calibration curves of each sensor are compared and discussed with each other and with graphite based pastes from our previous work.
