title: Determination of cadmium(II) at a gold electrode in the presence of selenium(IV) by anodic-stripping voltammetry with enhancement by iodide ion.
abstract: Anodic-stripping voltammetry (ASV) has been used in the derivative mode for the determination of cadmium, with a gold electrode in sulphuric add medium containing seleniurn(IV). The peak height for cadmium is enhanced by the presence of iodide. The sensitivity for cadmium is very high, with a peak in the stripping voltamperogram at -0.27V (vs. Ag/AgCl). The peak height for cadmium is not affected by over a 100-fold level of lead in the presence of selenium(IV). The dependence of peak height on the cadmium concentration is linear in the range 0.05-10ng ml .
