Stripping voltammetric determination of copper(II) in natural waters and human hairs based on the adsorption of its complex with Kryptofix 22 on the carbon paste electrode
Traces of copper(II) can be determined by adsorptive stripping voltammetry using Kryptofix 22 as complex forming reagent. First, copper(II)-Kryptofix 22 complex was adsorbed on the carbon paste electrode in phosphate buffer pH 5.3 with an accumulation potential of −0.5 V. Following this, the adsorbe...

Zusammenfassung: | Traces of copper(II) can be determined by adsorptive stripping voltammetry using Kryptofix 22 as complex forming reagent. First, copper(II)-Kryptofix 22 complex was adsorbed on the carbon paste electrode in phosphate buffer pH 5.3 with an accumulation potential of −0.5 V. Following this, the adsorbed complex was oxidized and detected by anodic differential pulse voltammetric scan from −0.2 to 0.1 V. The effective parameters of sensor response were examined. The detection limit of copper(II) was 1.1 μg/L and relative standard deviations for 50 and 150 μg/L of Cu(II) were 1.2 and 0.96%, respectively. The calibration curve was linear for 2–150 μg/L of copper(II). This technique does not use mercury and therefore is environmentally beneficial. The method, which is reasonably sensitive and selective, has been successfully applied to the determination of trace amounts of copper(II) in water and human hair samples. |
