the voltammetric performance of edge-plane pyrolytic graphite (epg) electrode via adsorptive stripping voltammetry was investigated for study of the electrochemical behavior of omeprazole (omz) in aqueous solution. the results revealed that the oxidation of omz is an irreversible ph-dependent process that proceeds with the transfer of one electron and one proton in an adsorption-controlled mech...

To support the development and implementation of biological monitoring programs, we need quantitative technologies for measuring xenobiotic exposure. Microanalytical based sensors that work with complex biomatrices such as blood, urine, or saliva are being developed and validated and will improve our ability to make definitive associations between chemical exposures and disease. Among toxic met...

This work deals with the comparison between three analytical techniques for the total contents analysis of heavy metals in agricultural soils polluted by copper. The soils samples are digested to clear solutions using a mixture of perchloric and hydrofluoric acids. The metals studied are copper, lead, cadmium, nickel, cobalt, zinc and manganese. Soil solutions are complex matrices and the analy...

The determination of trace elements using stripping voltammetry may be seriously affected by the presence of intensive matrix background or interfering peaks, leading to poorer detection limits and/or inaccurate quantitative results. In this work, we have tested the use of signal transformation (e.g., second derivative) in the analysis of platinum in seawater and sediment digests by means of ca...

This is a review of analytical methods, such as spectrophotometry, derivative spectrophotometry and various chromatographic (gas chromatography-GC, high-performance liquid chromatography-HPLC, thin-layer chromatography-TLC, high-performance thin-layer chromatography-HPTLC, liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-LC-MS, microchip electrophoresis-MCE, capillary electrophoresis-CE) and elec...

The adsorptive stripping voltammetric detection of nickel and cobalt in water samples at metal film electrodes has been extensively studied. In this work, a novel, environmentally friendly, metal-free electrochemical probe was constructed for the ultra-trace determination of Ni2+ in water samples by Adsorptive Cathodic Stripping Voltammetry (AdCSV). The electrochemical platform is based on the ...
