Electrochemical behavior of genotoxic 2,7-dinitrofluoren-9-one was investigated by DC polarography and DC tast polarography, both at a dropping mercury electrode, and by cyclic voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode, in buffered aqueous-methanolic solutions. The number of exchanged electrons was determined by constant-potential coulometry at a mercury pool electrode. A possible mechanism of the electrochemical reduction has been proposed. Optimal conditions were found for the determination of 2,7-dinitrofluoren-9-one by DC tast polarography in the concentration range from 2 × 10–6to 1 × 10–5mol l–1and by differential pulse polarography (from 2 × 10–7to 1 × 10–5mol l–1), both at dropping mercury electrode, by differential pulse voltammetry (from 2 × 10–8to 1 × 10–5mol l–1) and by adsorptive stripping voltammetry (from 2 × 10–9to 1 × 10–7mol l–1), both at hanging mercury drop electrode. Practical applicability of the developed methods was verified on the direct determination of 2,7-dinitrofluoren-9-one in drinking water in 10–8mol l–1concentration range, and in drinking and river water (both in 10–9mol l–1concentration range) using preliminary separation and preconcentration by solid-phase extraction.

The polarographic behavior of 3-nitrofluoranthene was investigated by DC tast polarography (DCTP) and differential pulse polarography (DPP), both at a dropping mercury electrode, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) and adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV), both at a hanging mercury drop electrode. Optimum conditions have been found for its determination by the given methods in the concentration ranges of 1 × 10-6-1 × 10-4 mol l-1 (DCTP), 1 × 10-7-1 × 10-4 mol l-1 (DPP), 1 × 10-8-1 × 10-6 mol l-1 (DPV) and 1 × 10-9-1 × 10-7 mol l-1 (AdSV), respectively. Practical applicability of these techniques was demonstrated on the determination of 3-nitrofluoranthene in drinking and river water after its preliminary separation and preconcentration using liquid-liquid and solid phase extraction with the limits of determination 4 × 10-10 mol l-1 (drinking water) and 2 × 10-9 mol l-1 (river water).

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.

The polarographic reduction of the azodye semitrypane blue has been studied, a mechanism has been proposed and optimal conditions have been found for the determination of this substance by TAST polarography (to 2.10-6 mol l-1) and differential pulse polarography (to 1.10-7 mol l-1) at a classical dropping mercury electrode and by fast scan differential pulse voltammetry (to 1.10-8 mol l-1) and linear scan voltammetry (to 1.10-8 mol l-1) at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The detection limit was decreased to 1.10-9 mol l-1 for fast scan differential pulse voltammetry and 1.10-10 mol l-1 for linear scan voltammetry by using adsorptive accumulation of the determined substance at the hanging mercury drop electrode.

The reduction of mutagenic bisazodye trypane blue has been studied at a mercury electrode, a mechanism has been proposed and optimal conditions found for its analytical application. The use of a dropping mercury electrode with a renewable surface yielded a detection limit of 8 . 10-7 mol l-1 for TAST polarography, and 8 . 10-8 mol l-1 for differential pulse polarography; the use of a hanging mercury drop electrode with an unrenewed surface during the measurement yielded detection limit of 6 . 10-8 mol l-1 for fast scan differential pulse voltammetry and 4 . 10-8 mol l-1 for linear scan voltammetry. Preliminary adsorptive accumulation of the determined substance on the surface of the hanging mercury drop electrode led to a decrease in the detection limit to 5 . 10-9 mol l-1 for linear scan voltammetry.

The polarographic behaviour was studied for 6-β-D-glucopyranosyloxy-7-hydroxycoumarin, a natural compound serving as an optical whitening agent. The substance can be quantitated by tast polarography, differential pulse polarography using a conventional dropping mercury electrode, and differential pulse polarography using a static mercury drop electrode over the regions of 20-1 000, 2-1 000, and 0.2-1 000 μmol l-1, respectively. The methods developed for the quantitation of the compound were applied to its direct determination in a raw product.

The polarographic behaviour of N,N-dimethyl-4-amino-4'-sulfoazobenzene was investigated by tast polarography and differential pulse polarography at a dropping mercury electrode, constant-potential coulometry at a large area mercury electrode and cyclic voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. Optimum conditions have been found for its determination by tast polarography in the concentration range of 2-100 μmol l-1, differential pulse polarography at a dropping mercury electrode in the concentration range of 0.2-100 μmol l-1 and by differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range of 0.02-10 μmol l-1. The sensitivity of the determination can be further improved by adsorptive accumulation of the test substance on the hanging mercury drop electrode. Three-minute accumulation in stirred solution allows determination in the range of 0.2-100 nmol l-1.

Electrochemical behavior of genotoxic 2-aminofluoren-9-one (2-AFN) was investigated by DC tast polarography (DCTP) and differential pulse polarography (DPP), both at a classical dropping mercury electrode (DME), and by DC voltammetry (DCV), differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and adsorptive stripping differential pulse voltammetry (AdSDPV), all at a miniaturized hanging mercury drop minielectrode (HMDmE), in buffered aqueous-methanolic solutions. Optimum conditions were found for the determination of 2-AFN by DCTP at DME in the concentration range from 1 × 10–6to 1 × 10–4mol l–1(with a limit of quantification (LQ) of 5 × 10–7mol l–1), by DPP at DME (from 1 × 10–7to 1 × 10–4mol l–1;LQ ≈ 1 × 10–7mol l–1), by DCV and DPV at HMDmE (both from 1 × 10–7to 1 × 10–4mol l–1;LQs ≈ 2 × 10–7and 1 × 10–7mol l–1for DCV and DPV, respectively), and by AdSDPV at HMDmE (from 2 × 10–9to 1 × 10–7mol l–1;LQ ≈ 4 × 10–9mol l–1). Practical applicability of the developed methods was verified on the direct determination of 2-AFN in model samples of drinking and river water in nanomolar to micromolar concentrations.

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 behaviour of 1-(4-methoxyphenyl)-3-methyltriazene in a mixed aqueous-methanolic medium was investigated by tast polarography and differential pulse polarography at a dropping mercury electrode, constant-potential coulometry at a large area mercury electrode and cyclic voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode. A mechanism has been proposed for its polarographic reduction and optimal conditions have been found for its determination by tast polarography in the concentration range 2-100 μmol l-1 and by differential pulse polarography at a dropping mercury electrode, differential pulse voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode and linear scan voltammetry at a hanging mercury drop electrode in the concentration range 0.2-100 μmol l-1. The sensitivity of the determination can be further improved through adsorptive accumulation of the test substance on the surface of the hanging mercury drop electrode; fifteen-second accumulation in stirred solution allows determination in the range 0.01-0.1 μmol l-1.

A method is described for determining total platinum content in urine, blood plasma and tissues of patients or experimental animals receiving cis-dichlorodiamineplatinum(II). The method is based on drying and combustion of the biological material in a muffle furnace. The product of the combustion is dissolved successively in aqua regia, hydrochloric acid and ethylenediamine. The resulting platinum-ethylenediamine complex yields a catalytic current at a dropping mercury electrode allowing to determine platinum by differential pulse polarography. Platinum levels of c. 50-1 000 ng per ml of the biological fluid or per 0.5 g of a tissue can readily be analyzed with a linear calibration.
