Trace Determination of Chromium by Square‐Wave Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry on Bismuth Film Electrodes

This works reports the use of adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV) for the trace determination of chromium on a rotating‐disk bismuth‐film electrode (BFE). During the reductive accumulation step, all the chromium species in the sample were reduced to Cr(III) which was complexed with cupferron and the complex was accumulated by adsorption on the surface of a preplated BFE. The stripping step was carried out by using a square‐wave (SW) potential‐time voltammetric signal. Electrochemical cleaning of the bismuth film was employed, enabling the same bismuth film to be used for a series of measurements in the presence of dissolved oxygen. The experimental variables as well as potential interferences were investigated and the figures of merit of the method were established. Using the selected conditions, the 3σ limit of detection for chromium was 100 ng L^?1 (for 120 s of preconcentration) and the relative standard deviation was 3.6% at the 2 μg L^?1 level (n=8). Finally, the method was applied to the determination of chromium in real samples with satisfactory results.     

Determination of Trace Manganese by Square‐Wave Stripping Voltammetry

A novel method of determining trace manganese by square‐wave stripping voltammetry with simultaneous plating mercury electrode is described in this paper. Well‐defined stripping peaks of manganese are obtained in H₃BO₄‐NaOH buffer (pH 8.0) and peak currents are in good linear relationship with manganese concentrations in two ranges: from 0.36 nM to 36 nM and from 73 nM to 909 nM. The obtained detection limit is 0.18 nM and relative standard deviation is 2.3% (n=7) under a predeposition time of 90 s. This proposed method has been used for the determination of trace manganese in real plasma samples with satisfiable results and good matching with the results of graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrometry.

Determination of Melatonin Hormone in Bulk Form,Tablets and Human Serum by Square‐Wave Cathodic Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry

Melatonin hormone plays an important role in many distinct physiological functions. A fully validated, sensitive and reproducible square‐wave cathodic adsorptive stripping voltammetric procedure was described for determination of melatonin in bulk form, tablets and human serum. The procedure was based on the reduction of the adsorptive hormone onto a hanging mercury drop electrode. Reduction behavior of melatonin was studied in both Britton‐Robinson (pH 2–11) and acetate (4.5–5.5) buffers. Acetate buffer of pH 5.0 was found reasonable as a supporting electrolyte for assay of the drug. The square‐wave cathodic adsorptive stripping voltammogram of melatonin showed a single well‐defined peak at ?1.45 V (vs. Ag/AgCl/KCl_s) using an accumulation potential of ?0.65 V. This peak may be attributed to the reduction of C?O double bond of the amide functional group of the reactant molecule. A mean recovery for 1×10^?8 M melatonin in bulk form followed 30 s accumulation of 98.87%±0.78 and a detection limit of 3.13×10^?10 M were achieved. The proposed procedure was successfully applied for the determination of the drug in tablets and human serum with mean recoveries of 97.68%±0.57 and 101.67%±0.85, respectively. A detection limit of 8.80×10^?10 M was achieved for the determination of the drug in human serum. Results of the proposed method were comparable and coincided with those obtained by reported method. Vitamin B₆ and common excipients, which are co‐formulated with melatonin, did not interfere. Also the effect of some interfering compounds such as serotonin, tryptophan and 5‐hydroxytryptophan on the determination of melatonin in human serum was studied, and all have no significant effect on the assay recovery.

The limit of detection was 0.3 nmol L^?1 (0.09 ng mL^?1). Finally, the BiFE was satisfactorily applied for quantitation of testosterone in both pharmaceutical (oil‐based ampoule) and biological (human urine) samples.     

Cathodic Stripping Voltammetry of Uracil. Experimental and Theoretical Study Under Conditions of Square‐Wave Voltammetry

The electrode mechanism of uracil at a hanging mercury drop electrode (HMDE) is studied under cathodic stripping square‐wave voltammetric mode owing to the cathodic dissolution of a sparingly soluble compound formed between the electrode material and uracil. The experimental results can be partly explained in the light of the recent theory for cathodic stripping processes of insoluble salts under conditions of square‐wave voltammetry. It is established that the electrode reaction is complicated by attractive interactions between the deposited species of the insoluble compound. To elucidate the electrode mechanism completely a novel theoretical model is developed considering adsorption of the reacting analyte and lateral interactions between species of the insoluble compound. With the help of numerical simulations the effect of interactions is studied in detail, emphasizing the properties of the response that can be used as diagnostic criteria for recognition of the type of interaction forces. Theoretically predicted voltammetric properties agree well with the experimental results enabling clarification of the complex electrode mechanism of uracil at HMDE.

New Protocol for Determination of Rifampicine by Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry

For determinations of organic compounds by adsorptive stripping voltammetry till now the same material of the electrode has been used for the accumulation and stripping steps. This paper describes a new protocol for extending the range of organic compounds, which can be determined by adsorptive stripping voltammetry. In the proposed procedure the accumulation step was performed on the electrode modified by a lead film, which assures adsorption of the studied species on the modified electrode and then the stripping step of the accumulated substance was performed on the support of the lead film electrode. As an example rifampicine was accumulated by adsorption at the lead film electrode while in the stripping step lead film and then the accumulated rifampicine were oxidized at a glassy carbon electrode. Using an acetate buffer as a supporting electrolyte a calibration graph for rifampicine in the range from 2.5×10^?10 to 1×10^?8 mol L^?1 was obtained. The detection limit for rifampicine following 60 s accumulation time was equal to 9×10^?11 mol L^?1. The obtained detection limit was comparable or lower than reported previously for other stripping voltammetric procedures. The proposed procedure was applied to rifampicine determination in pharmaceutical preparation.

This work describes a very sensitive and selective voltammetric procedure for the determination of platinum. Instead of commonly used hydrazine, thiosemicarbazide as a component of supporting electrolyte was applied. The method is based on adsorption of platinum‐thiosemicarbazone complex, formed in situ in voltammetric cell from thiosemicarbazide and formaldehyde, coupled with a hydrogen catalytic reaction at a hanging mercury drop electrode. The linear relation between platinum concentration and height of analytical signal was observed up to 1.5×10^?9 mol L^?1 with the detection limit calculated as 1.5×10^?13 mol L^?1 (3 s of the blank) after 50 s of accumulation time. The effect of various interferences from other ions was studied. Described method was applied for platinum determination in hydroponically cultivated plants after microwave decomposition.

Determination of Trace Amounts of Copper by Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry

ABSTRACT

A technique is presented for the determination of trace amounts of copper(II) by adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry. The procedure is based on adsorptive accumulation of copper(II)-Alizarin Red S (ARS) complex on a hanging mercury drop electrode, followed by a stripping voltammetric measurement of the reduction current of the adsorbed complex at -0.16 V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The height of the copper -ARS reduction peak is linearly dependent upon the copper(II) concentration between 0.2-15 and 15-500 ng.ml^?1. The detection limit of the technique is 0.05 ng.ml^?1 copper(II) for a collection time of 1 minute. The method is free from most interferences. The procedure has been successfully applied to the determination of trace amounts of copper(II) in some analytical grade salts.     

Characterization of the Surface Redox Process of Adsorbed Cercosporin (CER) at Glassy Carbon Electrodes by Anodic Stripping Square‐Wave Voltammetry

The adsorptive accumulation of cercosporin (CER) at glassy carbon electrodes is studied by square‐wave voltammetry (SWV). The Freundlich adsorption isotherm resulted in being the best one to describe the specific interaction of CER with glassy carbon electrodes by using a fitting procedure of experimental fractional surface coverage vs. the CER bulk concentration (c*_CER). SWV was also used to generate Q vs. c*_CER and I_{p, n}. vs. c*_CER calibration plots from pure commercial reagent solutions. Theoretical detection limits of 1.8×10^?7 and 9.7×10^?8 M were calculated from Q. vs. c*_CER and I_{p, n} vs. c*_CER plots, respectively. The lowest concentration value measured experimentally from calibration plots performed at a f =40 Hz for a signal to noise ratio of 2 : 1 was 3.7×10^?8 M, being this value two orders of magnitude smaller than that obtained previously by us from the diffusion controlled CER reduction peak. I_{p, n}./f vs. f plots from SW voltammograms performed at different c*_CER as well as different accumulation times showed the so‐called “quasi‐reversible maxima”. A splitting of the voltammetric peak was also observed by increasing the SW amplitude at a given frequency. A value of (?0.260±0.011) V was determined for the formal potential of the adsorbed redox couple from the split voltammetric peak. A full characterization of the surface redox process was obtained by applying the methods of the “quasi‐reversible maximum” and the “split SW peak”. In 1 M HClO₄ aqueous solution, the formal rate constant and the anodic transfer coefficient were (3.5±0.5)×10² s^?1 and (0.50±0.03), respectively. Besides, the number of electrons exchanged during the redox reaction was calculated as n≈1.

Determination of Folic Acid at a Bismuth Film Electrode by Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry

This article reports a new simple and sensitive method for the determination of folic acid by adsorptive stripping voltammetry. The method is based on the accumulation of folic acid at a bismuth film plated in situ on a glassy carbon substrate. In order to stabilize bismuth ions, sodium potassium tartrate was added to the supporting electrolyte. The bismuth film formation and folic acid accumulation conditions were optimized and measurements were carried without solution deaeration. The calibration graph was linear from 5 × 10^?10 to 2 × 10^?8 mole per liter with an accumulation time of 180 seconds with a limit of detection of 2 × 10^?10 mole per liter. The relative standard deviation for 5 × 10^?9 mole per liter of folic acid was 3.1 percent (n = 5). The method was successfully applied for determination of folic acid in pharmaceutical preparations.     

Square‐Wave Voltammetry of the Molybdenum‐1,10 Phenanthroline‐Fulvic Acids Complex: Redox Kinetics Measurements

The reduction process of molybdenum in the presence of fulvic acids and phenanthroline was investigated by square-wave voltammetry (SWV). The mixed-ligand complex of molybdenum exhibits a pronounced tendency to adsorb onto the mercury electrode surface. The electrode reaction proceeds as a surface process in which both components of the redox couple are firmly confined to the electrode surface. The kinetics of the electrode reaction is studied utilizing the properties of “split SW peaks” and “quasireversible maximum”. The kinetic parameters obtained with two different square-wave voltammetric methods are in good agreement. In 0.5 mol/L NaCl solution with pH 2.5 the kinetic parameters are: standard rate constant k_s=8±2 s⁻¹, cathodic electron transfer coefficient α=0.41±0.05, and number of exchanged electrons n=2. The SW kinetic measurements are confirmed by cyclic voltammetric method.     

Determination of Rutin in Pharmaceutical Compounds and Tea Using Cathodic Adsorptive Stripping Voltammetry

A new sensitive electrochemical procedure is presented for the determination of Rutin based on the accumulation of Rutin onto the surface of hanging mercury drop electrode for 80 s. Then the preconcentrated Rutin‐complex was analyzed by cathodic stripping square‐wave voltammetry. The effect of various parameters such as pH, concentration of copper, accumulation potential, accumulation time and scan rate on the sensitivity were studied. The optimum conditions for determination of Rutin include pH 6.0, 6.0 ng mL^?1 copper(II) concentration, accumulation potential of ?0.30 V and scan rate of 0.40 V s^?1. Under the optimum conditions and for an accumulation time of 80 s, the measured peak current at about ?0.03 V is proportional to the concentration of Rutin over the range of 2.0–85.0 nM. The practical limit of detection is 0.5 nM. The relative standard deviations for six replicate analyses of 10 and 50 nM Rutin are 1.8% and 1.7%, respectively. The method was applied to the determination of Rutin in synthetic, tea, and pharmaceutical samples with satisfactory results. The diffusion coefficient, complex formation constant and number of electron transfer of Rutin–Cu(II) complex was also estimated.

The sensitivity of method for determination of nickel and cadmium were obtained 0.54 and 0.98 nA mL ng^?1, respectively. The procedure was applied to simultaneous determination of nickel and cadmium in some real and synthetic artificial samples with satisfactory results.
