A sensitive adsorptive stripping voltammetric study was investigated on the complex of indium with morin at a hanging mercury drop electrode in 0.1 M acetate buffer (pH 3.20) solution. The adsorption phenomena were observed by differential-pulse voltammetry. The effects of various analytical conditions were discussed on the reduction peak current of the adsorbed complex on the surface of HMDE. Interferences by other trace metals and surfactant were also discussed. Detection limit was 2.6 nM of indium after 90 second deposition time, and the relative standard deviation (n = 7) at 4TEX>${\mu}g$/l indium was 2.0%.

Direct differential-pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry on mercury electrode (HMDE) provides a sensitive technique for low level cyanide measurement in distilled and sulfide free solution. Cyclic voltammetry revealed the forming and redissolution reactions were reversible at pH 7 in 0.1M KCl-0.01M phosphate supporting electrolyte. The analytical conditions have been optimized. With deposition time of 3 min at deposition potential 0.00V(vs. Ag/AgCl) in this medium of pH7, quite reproducible and linear calibration curve was obtained down to $3{\times}10^{-7}M$ (8ppb) $CN^-$ which was the detection limit.

Differential pulse polarographic(DPP) analytical procedure for the rifampicin antibiotic, which can be applied to monitor its synthetic process from the starting antibiotic of rifamycin B or rifamycin SV has been developed based on the electrochemical reduction of an azomethine group. Rifampicin exhibited a cathodic peak due to the azomethine group in the side chain of 3-[(4-methyl-1-piperazinyl)imino]methyl moiety and another cathodic peak due to the carbonyl group in rifamycin SV by DPP. The experimental peak potential shift of an azomethine reduction was -73 mV/pH in the pH range between 3.0 and 7.5, agreeing with involvement of 4 e-and 5 $H^5$ in its reduction. By the cyclic voltammetric(CV) studies, the azomethine and the carbonyl reductions in rifampicin were processed irreversibly on the mercury electrode. The plot of peak currents vs. concentrations of rifampicin ranging $1.0{\times}10^{-7} M~$1.0{\times}10^{-5} M yielded a straight line with a correlation coefficient of 0.9996. The detection limit was $1.0{\times}10^{-8} M with a modulation amplitude of 50 mV DPP has been successfully applied for the determination of rifampicin in the pharmaceutical preparations.

Polarographic studies of Ni(II) ion complexed with monoethanolamine, MEA, in aqueous solution have been carried out using sodium perchlorate as a supporting electrolyte. With use of D. C. and A. C. polarograms polarographic behaviors of the complex have been discussed. The wave obtained from basic solutions are found to be well defined and reversible, while reduction of the complex at pH smaller than 8.8 seems to be kinetic controlled with different complex species. Reducing species of the complex on the mercury electrode is determined to be $Ni(MEA)_3OH$ instead of $Ni(MEA)_2(OH)_2$ which is reported by other workers. Overall stability constant of $Ni(MEA)_3OH$ is obtained to be $10^{20}.$

A selective and sensitive method for simultaneous determination of copper in blood by adsorptive differential pulse cathodic stripping voltammetry is presented. The procedure involves an adsorptive accumulation of Cu(II)-ETSC (4- ethyl-3-thiosemicarbazide) on a hanging mercury drop electrode, followed by a stripping voltammetry measurement of reduction current of adsorbed complex at about -715 mV. The optimum conditions for the analysis of copper (II) ion are : pH 10.3, concentration of 4-ethyl-3-thiosemicarbazide $3.25{\times}10^{-6}$ M and an accumulation potential of -100 mV. The peak current is proportional to the concentration of copper over the range 0.003-125 ng/mL with a detection limit of 0.001 ng/mL and an accumulation time of 60 s. Moreover, with the use of the proposed method, there is a considerable improvement in the detection limit, the linear dynamic range and the deposition time, compared with the methods of adsorptive stripping voltammetry for the determination of copper. The developed method was validated by analysis of whole blood certified reference materials.

For a development of U-safety system, liquid/gas-sensors that are easy to carry and install in any place are needed. Therefore, in this work, we prepared porous gold using a templating method with nanoporous alumina, and it was used as sensing materials and electrode. The resulting materials showed high purity macroporous structure with $200{\sim}300\;nm$ of window-pore and $4.8\;m^2/g$ of surface area. Because porous gold had good electric conductivity, convenience to measure the change of electric resistivity and good reproducibility, it could be used as potential sensing materials. As a proof-of-concept test, the detection test for mercury ion was carried out.

Mordant Red 19(MR19) is reduced at mercury electrode at -0.67 V vs. Ag/AgCl with two electrons per molecule in pH 9.2 buffer by differential pulse polarography and linear sweep voltammetry. The peak potential is dependent on the pH of solution. The exhaustive electrolysis, however, gives 4 electrons per molecule because of the disproportionation of the unstable hydrazo intermediate. The electrochemical reduction of lanthanide-MR19 complexes is observed at more cathodic potential than that of free ligand. The difference in peak potentials between complex and free ligand varies from 75 mV for $La^{3+}$ to 165 mV for $Tb^{3+}$ and increases with increasing the atomic number of lanthanide. The electrochemical reduction of lanthanide complexes with MR19 is due to the reduction of ligand itself, and it can be potentially useful as an indirect method for the determination of lanthanides. The shape of i-E curves and the scan rate dependence indicates the presence of adsorption and the adsorption was confirmed by potential double-step chronocoulometry and the effect of standing time. Also the surface excess of the adsorbed species and diffusion coefficients are determined. The composition of the complex is determined to be 1 : 2 by spectrophotometric and electrochemical methods.

A simple procedure, readily available at low cost with a sensitivity sufficient to determine trace levels of iron in seawater is proposed, which utilizes adsorptive accumulation of the iron/catechol complex on the mercury drop electrode in a borate medium of pH 8.0. Optimal conditions include a solution concentration of 2 mM catechol, 2.5 mM borate and a pH of 8.0, an accumulation potential of - 0.25 V is applied for 1∼3 min, and the potential scan is in the differential pulse mode. The limit of detection is 1.5 nM Fe using a preconcentration time of 3 min. The interference from copper can be eliminated and baseline slope is greatly improved, because its peak is well separated from that of iron in the proposed medium.

A sensitive stripping voltammetric study of the complex of indium with 8-hydroxyquinoline at a hanging mercury drop electrode was investigated in 0.1M acetate buffer solution. The effects of various analytical conditions on the reduction peak current of the adsorbed complex were discussed. Optimal analytical conditions were found to be the ligand concentration of $2 {\times}10^{-5}$M, solution pH 4.75, scan rate of 10 mV/s, deposition potential of -0.450V, a deposition time of 90 second. Interferences by other trace metals and Triton X-100 were also discussed. Detection limit was 0.2 ppb of indium after 90 sec. Deposition time, and the relative standard deviation(n = 10) at 4 ppb was 3.2%.

N'-phenyl-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-aminourea has been prepared from N'-phenyl-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-nitrosourea by means of the electrochemical reduction with the mercury pool electrolytic cell. In order to find out the optimum condition of the reaction, the voltammetric behaviors for N'-aryl-N-(2-chloroethyl)-N-nitrosourea derivatives have been investigated by the cyclic voltammetry and polarography. The peak potentials was shifted to the negative direction as the pH value of the solution decrease. The substituent effects of phenyl ring on the peak potential were not observed in this case. (5:3) EtOH/4 N-HCl mixed solution was employed for the electrolysis. The applied potential was -0.7 V vs. Ag/AgCl/4 N-HCl electrode. The number of electrons participated to the reduction process was 4, respectively. The product was identified by FT-IR, NMR, mass and/or elemental analysis data.
