An ultrasensitive and selective stripping voltammetric scheme for the determination of rhodium is described. By the use of combined accumulation and catalytic effects in formaldehyde-hydrochloric acid medium, substantial improvement in the limit of detection can be obtained. Optimal experimental conditions were found to be 0.42 M hydrochloric acid solution containing 0.008${\%}$ formaldehyde, an accumulation potential of -0.70 V (vs. Ag/AgCl) and an accumulation time of 20 s. The stripping mode was differential pulse voltammetry. In these conditions the limit of detection lies at 2 ${\times}$ l0$^{-12}$ M (0.21 ppt). The relative standard deviation at 5 ${\times}$ l0$^{-11}$ M was 4.9${\%}$ (n=5). There were no serious interferences from other platinum group metal ions being the tolerable amounts more than 500 times that of rhodium.

The three electrode system was used to detect the pesticide fenitrothion ($C_9H_{12}NO_5PS$. MW=277.24) using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV). The working electrode was mercury immobilized on a carbon nanotube paste electrode (Hg-CNTPE). At the optimized condition, the limit of detection (LoD) was 0.6 ppt ($2.16{\times}10^{-12}\;M$), and the relative standard deviation was 0.035% (n=15). And there is more sensitive in detecting fenitrothion than common type carbon nanotube paste electrode. When it was implanted into the brain of live fish (carp), the existence of fenitrothion was measured without any destruction or damage of tissue.

This report presents a voltammetric assay of dinitrotoluene using a DNA immobilized onto a carbon nanotube paste electrode (PE). The cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry parameters of the optimized conditions were obtained. An anodic peak current appeared at 0.3 V (versus Ag/AgCl) in a 0.1-M $NH_4H_2PO_4$ electrolyte solution. The detection limit was found to be $0.6ngL^{-1}$(S/N = 10), within a deposition time of 100 sec.

A voltammetric analysis of doxycycline was developed using DNA immobilized onto a carbon nanotube paste electrode (PE). An anodic peak current was indicated at 0.2 V (versus Ag/AgCl) in a 0.1M $NH_4H_2PO_4$ electrolyte solution. The linear working range of the cyclic and square wave stripping voltammetry was obtained to $1-27ngL^{-1}$ with an accumulation time of 800 s. Final analytical parameters were optimized to be as follows: amplitude, 0.35 V; frequency, 500 Hz; and pH, 5.43. Here detection limit was found to be $0.45ngL^{-1}$, this result can be applied in foods systems and in the biological diagnostics

The aim of this study was to evaluate the differences of salivary lead (Pb) and cadmium (Cd) concentrations, using ASV analysis, after various pre-treatment procedures. 10 unstimulated whole saliva samples of non-exposed subjects to Pb and Cd were collected. Each sample was divided into 6 aliquots and centrifugation was performed in only 3 aliquots. After centrifugation, 3 different types of pre-treatment procedures were carried out. Also, these pre-treatment procedures were carried out for another 3 aliquots, without centrifugation. Pre-treated aliquots were analyzed electrochemically, by ASV. The results are as follows: 1. Mean concentration of Pb in saliva after centrifugation was significantly higher than that of non-centrifugation. 2. In the detection sensitivity of Pb in saliva, those of simple dilution technique by HCl and acid digestion technique by nitric acid were significantly higher than that of simple dilution technique by electrolyte. 3. Mean concentration of Cd in saliva after centrifugation was significantly higher than that of non-centrifugation. 4. In the detection sensitivity of Cd in saliva, those of simple dilution technique by HCl and acid digestion technique by nitric acid were higher than that of simple dilution technique by electrolyte. But, there were no significant differences between them.

Trace lead detection for cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square-wave (SW) stripping voltammetry was performed using mercury immobilized onto a carbon nanotube electrode (HNPE). Using the characteristics of mercury and the catalytic carbon nanotube structure, a modified technique, the $0.45{\mu}g/l$ detection limit of lead ion was attained. The developed method can be applied to pond water, fish tissue, plant tissue, and in vivo direct assay.

A stripping voltammetric scheme for the determination of osmium, based on the adsorptive accumulation of osmium in the presence of hydroxylamine, was described. Cyclic voltammetry was used to characterize the redox and interfacial processes. Optimal experimental conditions were found to be a stirred 0.05M hydroxylamine hydrochloride solution(pH 1.8), accumulation at -0.65V for 60s, and a differential pulse mode with a scan rate of 10mV/s. The detection limit was $6.3{\times}10^{-8}M$(12ppb) with the optimal condition.

Using poly(3-methylthiophene) conducting polymer film electrodes, feasiblity for Ag determination by stripping voltammetry has been studied. Ag ions accumulated by complexation with 18-crown-6, which are existing on the surface of the polymer film electrode, migrate inside of polymer film through potential scanning within limited potential range, and then are reduced and oxidized on the glassy carbon substrate. Therefore, the polymer film must have proper thickness and porosity for easy penetration of Ag ions. On the basis of these experimental results, $5.0{\times}10^{-6}M$ Ag(I) in aqueous solution could be determined.

This work assesses the potential of natural Analcime Zeolite as an adsorbent for preconcentration of lead (II) traces. Lead is quantitatively retained on 2-(5-bromo-2-pyridylazo)-5-diethylaminophenol by column method with Analcime in the pH range of 5-6.5 and 2 mL $min^{?1}$ flow rate. Lead was removed from the column with 10.0 mL of 4 M hydrochloric acid and was determined by anodic stripping differential pulse voltammetry. 0.5ppb detection limit was obtained and linear dynamic range was 3 to $1.2{\times}10^5$ ppb in final solution with correlation coefficient of 0.999 and relative standard deviation of ${\pm}$ 1.2% (for eight replicate determination of 2.5 ${\mu}g\;mL^{?1}$ of lead). Various parameters such as the effect of pH, flow rate, instrumental conditions and interferences of some ions on the determination of lead have been studied in detail for optimization of conditions. The method was successfully applied for determination of lead in various samples.
