It was found that resistance factors of mosquito larvae were near unity for dieldrin, and 2 to 3 times for Malathion at both Ahero and Mwea, and 2 times for DDT at Ahero. These low resistance factors indicated little or ...
Virtues of composite structures in electrode modification. Preparation and properties of poly (aniline)/nafion composite films
(1988)
Poly(aniline) (PA) is electropolymerized within thin films of precast Nafion on gold or glassy carbon electrodes. The quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) is used to aid in identification of the ionic species that undergo ...
