In an aqueous piperacillin sodium solution, a well-defined single wave or single peak was observed by direct current(DC) polarography or differential pulse polarography(DPP). The peak potential change per pH unit was -54 mV in the phosphate buffer at $18^{\circ}C$, which indicated that protons were involved in the electrochemical reduction of the 2,3-dioxopiperazine moiety of piperacillin sodium with a $H^{+}e^{-}$ ratio of one. Using a phosphate buffer of pH 4.3, the $1.0{times}10^{-7}$ M piperacillin sodium single peak could be determined by DPP with relative standard deviation of 1.6 %(n=3). Piperacillin sodium could be analyzed with-out interference from penicillin G-potassium, which enabled the employment of DPP as a fast and simple technique for monitoring the synthetic process of the antibiotic.

The determination of 2-mercapto-1-methyl-imidazole (MMI) in 5.0${\times}10^{-2}$ M lithium perchlorate suporting electrolyte has been investigated by the differential pulse polarography. The optimum condition of MMI analysis was as follows; -0.9 volts initial potential, 0.08 mV pulse height, 2 mV/sec scan rate, and medium mercury drop size. Standard calibration curve showed a good linearlity in the range of 1.0${\times}10^{-7}M\;to\;8.0{\times}10^{-5}$ M and the detection limit has been (2.2${\pm}0.1){\times}0.1^{-9}$ M. This method was applicated for the determination of MMI in antithyroid drug without interference of additives.

The determination method of 2-mercapto-1-methyl-imidazole(MMI) in $5.0{\times}10^{-2}M$ lithium perchlorate solution has been investigated by the differential pulse polarography. The optimum conditions for the determination of MMI were as fellows; -0.9 volt(vs. Ag/AgCl) initial potential, 80mV pulse height, 2mV/sec scan rate, and medium mercury drop size. The calibration curve showed a good linearlity in the range of $1.0{\times}10^{-7}M$ to $8.0{\times}10^{-5}M$ and the detection limit was $2.2{\times}10^{-9}M$. This method was applicable to the determination of MMI in thyroid drugs without interference from the additives.

The complexation of platinum and palladium with synthetic polyelectrolytes was studied. The successive and overall stability constants of Pd(II) with PEI and 2PVP were obtained by potentiometric titration. Because of the slow equilibrium time, the potentiometric titrations were performed using the home-made automatic titrator in order to analyze the complexations according to the modified Bjerrum method. The complex formation constant of Pt(IV) with 2PVP, measured by differential pulse polarography, was calculated from the peak currents that were obtained in non-complexing media and in solution containing 2PVP.

The electrochemical reduction of coumarin derivatives in 0.1M TEAP acetonitrile solution was investigated by the direct current, differential pulse polarography, cyclic voltammetry and controlled potential coulometry. The electrochemical reduction of 7-acetoxy-4-bromomethyl-coumarin(ABMC) was proceeded as an irreversible three steps(-0.58, -1.63 and -2.25 volts) of electrochemical transfer before chemical reaction. The solution color turned to yellow after the carboxyl group was reduced at 2nd step(-1.63 volts vs. Ag-AgCl) and the change in color was independant to the bromo group. Upon the basis of the results on the products analysis and the interpretaton of polarograms, a possible electrochemical reaction mechanism was suggested.

An inexpensive, yet convenient analog storage device was constructed. Sequentially MOSFET-switched 20 sample and holds equipped with a high input impedance preamplifier were parallelly matched to the digitally controlled shift register system in variable speeds up to 3 kHz. To verify its usefulness, square wave train, sinusiodal wave and some electrochemical data, such as fast-scan voltammogram and transient current-time curves of differential pulse polarography were tested.

A suituable choice of supporting electrolyte medium for trace level determinations of chromium(VI) by differential pulse polarography is described. A comparative study suggests that sodium borate buffer is superior to ammonium acetate, ammonium tartrate, and especially to NaF which was recently known to be one of the most proper medium for the purpose. With 0.01 M borate, the best combination of high sensitivity, well-defined base line, and freedom from common interferents was attained. With $5.0{\times}10^{-7}$M Cr(VI), tenfold excesses of Cu(II) and Fe(III), and a five hundred-fold excess of $Cl^-$ do not change the peak current by more than about 1%. And the detection limit was $5.0{\times}10^{-8}$M Cr(VI).

The techniques of pulse and cyclic voltammetry were applied to the determination of (E$_{1}$2)$_2$-(E$_{1}$2)$_1$ for two-step electrochemical charge transfers. In addition, a simple amplitude was derived far the dependence of the differential pulse response on (E$_{l}$ 2/)$_1$ and (E$_{1}$2/)$_2$. and the use of peak to peak separation in cyclic voltammetry and differential pulse methods was evaluated. A comparison of the comproportionation constants(Ke) from differential pulse and cyclic voltammetry methods exhibited a good agreement within 5%.

Analytical method for the determination of trace germanium in inorganic matrices by differential pulse polarography(DPP) was studied. The reduction peak of germanium(IV) in perchloric acid solution containing 1, 2, 3-trihydroxy benzene appeared at -0.45V(vs. Ag/AgCl) and the peak current for germanium complex varied linearly with concentration variation. Factors affecting sensitivity and precision for germanium quantification were studied and detection limit under the investigated parameters was 1ng/ml. Inorganic samples were decomposed by fusion with potassium pyrosulfate. Serious interferences of Se(IV), Pb(II), As(III) for the determination of germanium were discussed. Interferences of these elements could be avoided by extraction of germanium from decomposed matrices by $CCl_4$ in 10M HCl solution. The germanium contents of inorganic samples(Pb bf. dust, Cu bf. dust, gneiss, Cu anode slime) were determined by the above method.

The electrochemical reduction of coumarin, 7-acetoxy-4-methyl coumarin (AMC), and 7-acetoxy-4-bromomethyl coumarin (ABMC), in 0.1 M tetraethyl ammonium perchlorate/acetonitrile solution was carried out by direct current, differential pulse polarography, cyclic voltammetry, and controlled potential coulometry. The electrochemical reduction of ABMC was proceeded through three steps of electron transfer coupled with the chemical reactions. The color of solution was changed to yellow when the carbonyl group was reduced during 2nd step (-1.8 volts) and independented with cleavage of bromo group. Highest fluorescence intensity showed when the electrochemical reduction of AMC was controlled at near the potential (-2.3 volts vs. Ag/AgCl).
