A simple, fast, and inexpensive voltammetric method for the simultaneous determination of trace bismuth(III) and lead(II) using (Hg(Ag)FE) as a working electrode was optimized. For adsorptive stripping voltammetric determination of Bi(III) and Pb(II) in a single scan, the cupferron was applied as a complexing agent. Experimental conditions under which these elements can be simultaneously detected include 0.1 mol L−1 acetate buffer (pH = 4.6), 1 × 10−4 mol L−1 cupferron, accumulation potential −0.05 V, and accumulation time 30 s. The experiments were performed without deaeration of the solutions. The calibration graph was linear from 2 × 10−9 mol L−1 to 1 × 10−7 mol L−1 for the simultaneous presence of bismuth and lead. The detection limits for preconcentration time of 30 s were 6.7 × 10−10 mol L−1 and 8.8 × 10−10 mol L−1 for bismuth and lead, respectively. The application of this procedure was tested by analyzing certified reference material (SPS-WW1 Wastewater) and Lake Zemborzyce water (eastern areas of Poland).

A selective and sensitive adsorptive stripping voltammetric (AdSV) procedure for the simultaneous determination of cadmium, copper and lead in the sea water was conducted. The aim of this research is to get optimum condition for simultaneous determination of cadmium, copper and lead. Adsorptive stripping voltammetry has been used for determination of trace amount of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb (II) by using calcon as a complexing agent. The parameters studied were variation of calcon concentration, pH, accumulation potential and accumulation time. In this study, the optimum conditions were calcon concentration of 0.6 mM, pH = 4.0, accumulation potential of -0.7 V and accumulation time of 80 sec. At the optimum conditions, the relative standard deviation were 8.78%, 3.12%, and 4.02% for Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) respectively for eight replicates (n = 8) measurements of 10 μg/L mixed standard solution of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II). The method was applied to the direct simultaneous determination of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) in sea water around Bungus, Padang City. Concentration of Cd(II), Cu(II) and Pb(II) in samples were equal to 1.8 μg/L for Cd(II), 38.6 μg/L for Cu(II) and 0.7 μg/L for Pb(II) with recovery of 87.03%, 98.80%, and 95.73%, respectively.

AbstractThe renewable mercury film electrode, applied for the determination of papaverine traces using differential pulse adsorptive stripping voltammetry (DP AdSV) is presented. The calibration graph obtained for papaverine is linear from 1.25 nM (0.42 µg L−1) to 95 nM (32.2 µg L−1) for a preconcentration time of 60 s, with correlation coefficient of 0.998. For the renewable mercury electrode (Hg(Ag)FE) with a surface area of 9.1 mm2 the detection limit for a preconcentration time of 60 s is 0.7 nM (0.24 µg L−1). The repeatability of the method at a concentration level of the analyte as low as 17 µg L−1, expressed as RSD is 3.3% (n=5). The proposed method was successfully applied and validated by studying the recovery of papaverine from drugs, urine and synthetic solution.

A simple and sensitive adsorptive stripping voltammetry method was developed for determination of Zn using N-nitrozo-N-phenylhydroxylamine (cupferron) as a selective complexing agent. This complex absorbed on the hanging mercury drop electrode and created a sensitive peak current. The peak current and concentration of zinc accorded with a linear relationship in the range of 0.85–320 ng mL−1. The influence of pH and the nature of supporting electrolytes, concentration of ligand, preconcentration time and applied potential were investigated. The relative standard deviation at a concentration level of 50 ng mL−1 was 1.8%. The method was applied to the determination of zinc in city, river and mineral water samples, with satisfactory results.

An ion chromatographic method for determination of bromide and bromate in the presence of standard anions in drinking water was described. The method was based on separation on Metrosep A Supp 7-250 (250 x 4 mm) column with 3.6 mmol/L Na2CO3 as eluent and conductivity detection after sequential chemical and carbon dioxide suppression. The influence of flow rate and column temperature was studied and optimal experimental conditions for simultaneous determination of eight anions were chosen. Analytical characteristics of the ion chromatographic method were assessed for simultaneous determination of bromide, bromate, fluoride, chloride, nitrate, nitrite, phosphate and sulfate. The calibration curves were linear (r2=1, N=7) in the concentration ranges: 0.4-12 mg/L BrO3- and 0.3-11 mg/L Br-. Recovery test was performed on a spiked certified reference material for soft drinking water. The obtained recoveries for bromate and bromide were 96.0 and 101.0 %, respectively. The repeatability and intermediate precision were between 5.1 and 0.14 % (RSD) depending on the analytes concentration. The limits of detection were 20 μg/L BrO3- and 10 μg/L Br-

This paper describes a stripping method for the determination of acyclovir at the submicromolar concentration level. This method is based on controlled adsorptive accumulation of acyclovir at thin-film mercury electrode, followed by a linear cyclic scan voltammetry measurement of the surface species. Optimal experimental conditions include a NaOH solution of 2.0 × 10−3 mol L−1 (supporting electrolyte), an accumulation potential of −0.40 V, and a scan rate of 100 mV s−1. The response of acyclovir is linear over the concentration range 0.02 to 0.12 ppm. For an accumulation time of 4 minutes, the detection limit was found to be 0.42 ppb (1.0 × 10−9 mol L−1). More convenient methods to measure the acyclovir in presence of the didanosine, efavirenz, nevirapine, nelfinavir, lamivudine, and zidovudine were also investigated. The utility of this method is demonstrated by the presence of acyclovir together with Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) or DNA.

Abstract A sensitive and simple electrochemical method was developed for successful determination of amaranth in food samples by square-wave adsorptive stripping voltammetry based on an expanded graphite paste electrode (EGPE). The EGPE has strong and sensitive voltammetric responses to amaranth, owing to the multiporous structure and large surface area of EG. The electroanalytical determination of this azo dye was found to be optimal in Britton-Robinson buffer solutions (pH 7.0) under the following experimental conditions: accumulation time, 400 s; accumulation potential, 0.4 V; pulse amplitude, 25 mV; and frequency, 10 Hz. Under the optimum experimental conditions, the oxidation peak current was proportional to the concentration of amaranth over two ranges from 0.01 to 0.1 and 0.1 to 4.0 μM. These linear ranges of the EGPE toward amaranth were wider than other electrodes reported before. The LOD was estimated to be 0.005 μM (S/N = 3:1). The developed method was applied to the determination of amaranth in retsina samples, and the results were confirmed by HPLC. Statistical analysis of these data showed that the results of the two methods compared favorably. This work provides a simple and easy approach to the determination of amaranth in foods with high sensitivity and excellent selectivity.
