The polarographic reduction of genotoxic 4-aminoazobenzene was studied, a mechanism was proposed and conditions were found for the analytical determination using Tast polarography in the range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-6 mol l-1 and differential pulse polarography in the range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-7 mol l-1. The sensitivity can be further increased by using fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode combined with adsorptive accumulation of the test substance on the surface of the working electrode, permitting the determination to be carried out in the range 1 . 10-7 - 2 . 10-10 mol l-1. The anodic oxidation of 4-aminoazobenzene was also studied at a glassy carbon solid electrode and conditions were found for its analytical utilization in the range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-6 mol l-1 using classical or differential pulse voltammetry at a rotating disk electrode.

A study was made of the polarographic reduction of the title triazene, a mechanism was proposed for this process and optimal conditions were found for its analytical application using tast polarography in the range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-6 mol l-1, differential pulse polarography in the range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-7 mol l-1 and fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-7 mol l-1. The sensitivity of the latter technique was increased through adsorptive accumulation of the test substance on the surface of the working electrode, permitting determination in the concentration range 1 . 10-7 - 2 . 10-9 mol l-1.

The polarographic reduction of the title azodye has been studied, a mechanism has been proposed for this process and conditions have been found for the determination of this substance by TAST polarography, with a detection limit of 7 . 10-7 mol l-1, differential pulse polarography at a dropping mercury electrode with a detection limit of 3.5 . 10-7 mol l-1, fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a static mercury drop electrode with a detection limit of 6.9 . 10-9 mol l-1 and voltammetry with linearly increasing voltage at a hanging mercury drop with a detection limit of 1.6 . 10-9 mol l-1.

Conditions were found for the determination of 6-mercaptopurine (I) and 6-thioguanine (II) by TAST polarography, differential pulse polarography and fast-scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limits were 10-6, 8 . 10-8, and 6 . 10-8 mol l-1, respectively. A further lowering of the detection limit to 2 . 10-8 mol l-1 was attained by preliminary accumulation of the determined substances at the surface of a hanging mercury drop.

The polarographic reduction of the title azo dye was studied and optimal conditions were found for its analytical utilization in the concentration range 1 . 10-6 - 1 . 10-7 mol l-1 using differential pulse polarography and 1 . 10-6 - 1 . 10-8 mol l-1 using fast scan differential pulse voltammetry or linear scan voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. When the latter technique is combined with adsorptive accumulation of the studied substance on the surface of the hanging mercury drop, the determination limit can be further decreased to 3 . 10-9 mol l-1.

A study was made of the polarographic behaviour of 1-(4'-carbamoylphenyl)-3,3-dimethyltriazene and optimum conditions were found for its determination by tast polarography and differential pulse polarography at a static mercury drop electrode and by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range 1 . 10-4 to 2 . 10-7 mol l-1. A further increase in the sensitivity can be achieved through adsorptive accumulation of the test substance on the surface of a hanging mercury drop, permitting the determination to be extended to the concentration range 1 . 10-7 - 2 . 10-9 mol l-1.

The polarographic reduction of the bisazodye congo red has been studied, a mechanism was proposed for this process and optimal conditions were found for determination of this substance by TAST polarography and differential pulse polarography at a dropping mercury electrode and using fast scan differential pulse voltammetry and voltammetry with linearly increasing voltage at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limit for the latter two techniques is about 10-8 mol l-1; a further decrease in the value can be attained by prior accumulation of the determined substance by adsorption on the surface of the working electrode.

The polarographic reduction of the 3'-halogen derivatives of N,N-dimethyl-4-aminoazobenzene was studied in mixed water-methanol medium and optimum conditions were found for the determination of these genotoxic substances by tast polarography in the concentration range 1 . 10-4 to 2 . 10-6 mol l-1, differential pulse polarography at a dropping mercury electrode in the range 1 . 10-4 to 2 . 10-7 mol l-1 and fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the range 1 . 10-6 to 2 . 10-8 mol l-1. The increase in the sensitivity resulting from adsorptive accumulation of the studied substances on the surface of a hanging mercury drop can be utilized in the determination using the latter method in the concentration range 1 . 10-8 to 2 . 10-9 mol l-1.

Polarographic and voltammetric behavior of 1,5-dinitronaphthalene was investigated using tast polarography and differential pulse polarography at a classic dropping mercury electrode and differential pulse voltammetry and adsorptive stripping voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. Optimum conditions have been found for the determination of tested substance in the concentration range 2-10 μmol l-1 in tast polarography, 0.2-1 μmol l-1 in differential pulse polarography at a classic dropping mercury electrode or differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode, and 0.02-0.1 μmol l-1 using adsorptive stripping voltammetry. A possible mechanism of the electrochemical reduction of 1,5-dinitronaphthalene at mercury electrodes is discussed.

The polarographic reduction of N,N-dimethyl-4-amino-3'-nitroazobenzene was studied by tast polarography and differential pulse polarography, constant potential coulometry and cyclic voltammetry and mechanism was proposed for the reduction. Optimal conditions were found for the determination of the test substance using tast polarography in concentration range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-6 mol l-1, differential pulse polarography at classical dropping mercury electrode and fast scan differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in range 1 . 10-4 - 2 . 10-7 mol l-1 and linear scan voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in range 1 . 10-5 - 2 . 10-8 mol l-1. A further increase in the sensitivity was achieved through adsorptive accumulation of the test substance on the surface of the working electrode, permitting the determination to be carried out in the concentration range 1 . 10-7 - 2 . 10-9 mol l-1.

A method for destruction of the carcinogenic 4-nitrobiphenyl in laboratory waste was elaborated based on its reduction with powdered zinc and oxidation of the produced 4-aminobiphenyl with potassium permanganate. The efficiency of the method can be checked by high-performance liquid chromatography, differential pulse polarography, and differential pulse voltammetry.
