When a hydrophobic and hydrophilic environments of bis(2,2'-bipyridyl) copper(II) ($Cu(bpy)_2{^{2+}}$) are produced in the presence of anionic surfactant sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS), cyclic voltammetry is used to investigate the microscopic environments which occurs at the glassy carbon electrode. In order to see the relation between ${\Delta}E_p$ and a critical micelle concentration (CMC), ${\Delta}E_p$ vs. -Log[SDS] for the redox couples are plotted. The concentration at the intersection of two lines is 2.57 mM SDS, and this concentration can be determined as the CMC (relative error: below 0.03%; 2.63 mM SDS by surface tensiometry).

A selective method for the determination of iron(III) ion with a sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS) modified glassy carbon electrode was proposed. It was based on the electrostatic attraction and complexation of the SDS modifier, $(DS^-)_n-Fe^{3+}$. The determination of iron(III) ion was performed by a differential pulse voltammetry(DPV), and the reduction peak potential of $(DS^-)_n-Fe^{3+}$ was +0.466(${\pm}0.002$)V vs. Ag/AgCl. For the determination of iron(III) ion, a linear calibration curve was obtained within the iron(III) ion concentration range of $0.50{\times}10^{-5}{\sim}10{\times}10^{-5}mol/L$, and the detection limit was $0.14{\times}10^{-5}mol/L$. $Cu^{2+}$, $Ni^{2+}$, $Co^{2+}$, $Pb^{2+}$, $Zn^{2+}$, and $Mn^{2+}$ showed little or no effect on the determination of iron(III) ion, respectively. But, ion such as each $CN^- $ and $SCN^-$ interfered seriously.
