Abstract: | The effect of various instrumental parameters is investigated and optimized conditions established. The results are in accordance with the theory of differential pulse anodic stripping voltammetry. Both a hanging mercury drop electrode, and a rotating glassy carbon electrode mercury plated in situ were used. The best detection limit is obtained with the mercury film electrode, but the hanging mercury drop electrode is more reproducible. The differential pulse stripping technique is compared to linear sweep stripping, and increased sensitivity and better peak separation is demonstrated for the former technique, particularly when a hanging mercury drop electrode is used. However, the differential pulse technique will also improve the detection limit for a mercury film electrode, if the electrode has a non-ideal response with a corresponding high background current. |
