anodic stripping voltammetric determination of pb, cd, zn and cu in blood samples of 132 children was developed. the children's ages range was between 6 months and 6 years and the samples were collected from different areas of ibb governorate (yemen). we used anodic stripping voltammetry for analyzing and determination of cited metals in the blood of all children. large variation in the re...

The influence of nanoparticle aggregation on anodic stripping voltammetry is reported. Dopamine-capped silver nanoparticles were chosen as a model system, and melamine was used to induce aggregation in the nanoparticles. Through the anodic stripping of the silver nanoparticles that were aggregated to different extents, it was found that the peak area of the oxidative signal corresponding to the...

Ion-exchange membranes were used in conjunction with neutron-activation analysis and anodic stripping voltammetry for the determination of certain trace metal ions. The various parameters which govern the applicability, limitations and sensitivity of the methods were investigated. A new membrane "barrier" electrode assembly was introduced and found to be useful for the anodic stripping determin...

We describe a rapid microscale procedure for blood lead determination by anodic stripping voltammetry. Results correlate well with those obtained by atomic absorption spectroscopy. The procedure involves use of a metal-exchange reagent, which rapidly releases bound lead from its macromolecular binding sites, thus eliminating a long and cumbersome perchloric acid digestion procedure. Reproducibi...

Carbon film disk electrodes with Nafion coatings have been characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) with a view to a better understanding of their advantages and limitations in electroanalysis, particularly in anodic stripping voltammetry of metal ions. After initial examination by cyclic voltammetry, spectra were recorded over the full potential range in acetate buffer sol...

Due to the strong cation-exchange ability of Nafion and the excellent properties of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), a highly sensitive and mercury-free method of determining trace levels of In(3+) has been established based on the bifunctionality of a MWCNTs/Nafion modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The MWCNTs/Nafion modified GCE detects In(3+) in a 0.01 M HAc-NaAc buffer solution ...

The electrochemical behavior of thioctic acid at the hanging mercury drop electrode was studied in different supporting electrolytes. In Britton - Robinson buffer pH 3.29, the square - wave adsorptive anodic stripping voltammogram of thioctic acid exhibited a single well - defined anodic peak at about -0.21 V vs Ag/AgCl. The peak response was characterized with respect to pH, preconcentration t...

We describe a novel medium, a captopril/thiophenol (Capt/TP) mixed self-assembled monolayer (SAM) formed on gold, for selectively pre-concentrating serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT). The 5-HT molecules were shown to be selectively captured via formation of a strong complex, providing anodic stripping currents upon anodic scan or drastic increases in charge-transfer resistances for a redox p...
