Abstrakt:
In this article, a study of Bi2O3-modified screen-printed electrodes is given presenting
the determination of Cd(II) and Pb(II) by anodic stripping voltammetry (ASV). Initially, the electrode was subjected to cathodic polarisation to reduce the Bi2O3 to metallic bismuth. Then, the target metal cations were electrolytically preconcentrated on the electrode by alloying with bismuth. Following the deposition step, an anodic voltammetric scan was applied in which the metals were oxidised and stripped back into the solution; the voltammogram recorded and the stripping peak heights being related to Pb(II) and Cd(II) concentrations in the sample. Different
key parameters were investigated in detail such as the medium used for the Bi2O3 reduction, the Bi2O3 content in the carbon ink, the polarisation range of the sensors, the supporting electrolyte, the stripping waveform, the deposition time, the deposition potential and the long-term stability of the sensors. Under the optimum conditions, the limit of detection was 1.1 g l 1 for Pb( ) and 2.1 g l 1 for Cd( ). The reproducibility of measurements on the same chip (expressed as
the RSD [%], for n = 8) was 7.7 % for Pb(II) and 8.4 % for Cd(II) at the 20 g l 1 level.
