Simultaneous determination of cadmium and lead in urine by means of computerized potentiometric stripping analysis

In computerized potentiometric stripping analysis for cadmium and lead in urine the samples are acidified with hydrochloric acid to a total concentration equal to 0.5 M. The sample is pre-electrolyzed at —1.25 V vs. SCE for 2 min without prior sample heating or deoxygenation, the working electrode being a mercury pre-coated glassy-carbon electrode. The lead and cadmium concentrations are evaluated by means of standard addition. Detection limits are 1 nM for both elements. Results obtained by potentiometric stripping analysis and by solvent extraction/atomic absorption are compared for samples from unexposed persons and from one patient under penicillamine treatment. The relative merits of the potentiometric stripping, anodic stripping and atomic absorption techniques are discussed.     

The role of thiourea as additive for solving medium-modification problems in potentiometric stripping analysis

Thiourea (TU) has been studied as a possible additive for medium modification in order to modulate ion sensitivity in PSA (potentiometric stripping analysis). TU has three effects: (a) chelation with the metal ion and/or oxidizing agent; (b) specific adsorption at the mercury thin-film electrode (in the 10(-4)M TU range); (c) diffusional electron transfer during the electro-deposition and redissolution steps in a PSA measurement. These effects were studied by PSA, ASV (anodic stripping voltammetry) and CA (chronoamperometry). For TU concentrations higher than 10(-3)M, electron-transfer by the additive is the predominant factor affecting sensitivity; this effect depends upon the value of the ion-stripping potential. For TU concentrations lower than 10(-3)M, complexation with the metal ion and/or oxidizing agent is the main factor affecting sensitivity. Appropriate choice of the concentration of TU therefore makes it possible to enhance or to lower the specific ion sensitivity, and even to mask an ion with respect to other ions. Examples are given for Zn(2+), Cu(2+), Cd(2+), Tl(+), Bi(3+), and an extensive study was performed with Pb(2+).     

Potentiometric stripping analysis

The analytical possibilities of potentiometric stripping analysis are outlined. The technique comprises reduction of metal ions at a stationary mercury drop or thin-film electrode. The amalgamated metals are then re-oxidized with mercury(II) ions, and the time—potential behaviour of the mercury electrode is recorded. The technique is compared with d.c. and differential pulse anodic stripping analysis.     

Determination of the Diffusion Coefficient of Copper in Globular Gold Film by Potentiometric Stripping Analysis

Diffusion Coefficient (D_R) is one of important parameters for metal and alloy. Diffusion Coefficients of metal were determined by many methods, among them radioactive isotope tracer technique was dominant, but these determination techniques were more complicated. We had studied potentiometric stripping analysis with a globular goldfilm as -a working electrode and derived the transition stripping time equation which was verified experimentally, The equation is applied to determine diffusion coefficients of metal in globular goldfilm simply and quickly in this paper.

Renewable silver amalgam film electrodes in electrochemical stripping analysis—a review

The success of a voltammetric sensing procedure depends mainly on the proper choice of the working electrode. This is because its ability to accumulate the analyte determines the sensitivity of the method. The main criterion of the selection of the proper working electrode is the available potential window. A variety of conductive materials have been used for the preparation of working electrodes. Of these, two kinds of mercury electrodes—hanging mercury drop and film—were used because of their excellent voltammetric performance and, in particular, their high overpotential of hydrogen reduction. The significant drawbacks of mercury electrodes, however, are the toxicity of the material and the instability of liquid mercury films. To overcome these disadvantages, less toxic mercury-containing materials have been used, such as amalgams and amalgam film electrodes. This group includes renewable silver amalgam film electrodes used for electrochemical stripping sensing purposes. These electrodes have successfully been applied for anodic, adsorptive, cathodic, catalytic voltammetric, and potentiometric stripping determination of trace amounts of inorganic cations and organic compounds in various natural matrices. In this review, the electrode design, characteristics, and application of two kinds of renewable silver amalgam film electrodes are discussed in detail.     

Stripping voltammetry of copper and lead using gold electrodes modified with self-assembled monolayers

One problem associated with using bare solid metal electrodes, such as gold and platinum, in stripping analysis to determine heavy metal ions such as lead and copper ions in dilute solutions is that underpotential deposition (UPD) gives multiple stripping peaks in the analysis of mixtures. These peaks are often overlapped and cannot be conveniently used for analytical purposes. Bifunctional alkylthiols, such as 3-mercaptopropionic acid, with an ionizable group on the other terminal end of the thiol can form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on the surface of the gold electrode. It is shown that such an SAM-modified gold electrode minimizes the UPD effects for the stripping analysis of lead and copper. The anodic peak potential shifts and the peak shape changes, indicating that the SAM changes the deposition and stripping steps of these heavy metal ions. Thus, the sensitivity levels for both single species and mixtures can be significantly improved for the conventional solid electrodes. The mechanism of the deposition reaction at the SAM-modified gold electrodes is discussed. Received: 29 May 1997 / Accepted: 24 June 1997     

A micro-computer system for potentiometric stripping analysis

In potentiometric stripping analysis, trace metals are first amalgamated into a mercury film electrode and then oxidized back into solution by an oxidant. The potential vs. time curve is recorded. Microcomputer-controlled equipment for automation of the potentiometric stripping analysis is described. The higher resolution of time compared to manual equipment increases the sensitivity of the method. A resident, 3-kB BASIC interpreter with routines for handling the hardware makes the programming simple and the instrumentation flexible for changes in the analytical scheme. Printer and keyboard are incorporated in the equipment which makes the whole analyser compact.     

Digestion-free determination of heavy metals (Pb, Cd, Cu) in honey using anodic stripping differential pulse voltammetry and potentiometric stripping analysis

Experiments have been carried out to assess the potential of differential pulse voltammetry and potential stripping analysis for determining Pb, Cu and Cd directly in dissolved honey samples using a flow-through cell. With the hanging mercury drop electrode Pb alone can be determined only if the electrode is first modified in-situ with Triton X 100 to increase the separation between the Pb peak and a broad, interfering adsorption peak which overlaps the Cu peak. If the (more sensitive) thin film mercury electrode is used the interference encountered is less so also Cu and Cd can be determined. With potentiometric stripping analysis Cu and Pb can be determined using normal procedures. The determination of Cd, however, can only be carried out if the concentration of the oxidizing agent [Hg(II)] in solution is decreased. A good agreement has been obtained between the values found and those obtained after high pressure digestion of the samples.     

Simultaneous determination of trace-levels of alloying zinc and copper by semi-mercury-free potentiometric stripping analysis with chemometric data treatment

Assays of copper and zinc in brass samples were performed by semi-mercury free potentiometric stripping analysis (S-MF PSA) using a thin-film mercury covered glassy-carbon working electrode and dissolved oxygen as oxidizing agent during the stripping step. The stripping peak transients were resolved by chemometrics, which enabled simultaneous determination of both the copper and the zinc concentrations, thereby eliminating the conventional necessary pretreatment of the sample solution, such as initial addition of Ga(III) or solvent extraction of copper. The brass samples were diluted by factors in the range 2 · 10⁴– 5 · 10⁵ which resulted in quantification of the copper and of zinc contents comparable to the specified values within 10%. On the basis of the chemometric treatment, an empirical expression is deduced relating the stripping time to the recorded potential.     

Derivative potentiometric stripping analysis with a thin film of mercury on a glassy carbon electrode

Derivative potentiometric stripping analysis is based on the pre-concentration of metal analytes in a thin film of mercury on a glassy carbon electrode and subsequent measurement of the electrode potential subject to controlled transport of oxidant to the electrode surface.

Multiple-scanning potentiometric stripping analysis

A computerized data acquisition technique— multichannel potentiometric monitoring—is used in conjunction with potentiometric stripping analysis. Multiple-scanning stripping potentiograms can be recorded so that the analytical signals are enhanced. A minicomputer with an internal store of4K 16-bit words suffices for experimental control and data treatment. The technique is suitable for stripping analysis with preconcentration times of 60–90 s at a mercury film electrode with linear response ranges of 1–100 μg l^-1 for cadmium(II) and lead(II). For preconcentration times of 30 min, the limit of detection is about 5 ng l^-1. Preliminary tests on continuous flow analysis are reported.     

Determination of the pesticide Chlorpyrifos by cathodic adsorptive stripping voltammetry

The adsorption behavior and differential pulse cathodic adsorptive stripping voltammetry of the pesticide Chlorpyrifos (CP) were investigated at the hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE). The pesticide was accumulated at the HMDE and a well-defined stripping peak was obtained at –1.2 V vs Ag/AgCl electrode at pH 7.50. A voltammetric procedure was developed for the trace determination of Chlorpyrifos using differential pulse cathodic adsorptive stripping voltammetry (DP-CASV). The optimum working conditions for the determination of the compound were established. The peak current was linear over the concentration range 9.90 × 10^–8– 5.96 × 10^–7 mol/L of Chlorpyrifos. The influence of diverse ions and some other pesticides was investigated. The analysis of Chlorpyrifos in commercial formulations and treated waste water was carried out satisfactorily

The influence of pH on the electrode potential in pure acidic solutions is noted. The electrode used was prepared by electrolytic deposition of silver sulphide on a silver rod; after 2 years, it remained reliable, and was unaffected by light under normal laboratory conditions.
