Sensitive determination of trace Cd(ii) and Pb(ii) in soil by an improved stripping voltammetry method using two different in situ plated bismuth-film electrodes based on a novel electrochemical measurement system.

ABSTRACT: In this study, a simple but effective electrochemical method was developed to minimize the interference from real soil samples and increase the sensitivity of Pb(ii) and Cd(ii) detection by square-wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) using a novel electrochemical measurement system, which can be used for the on-site determination of trace Cd(ii) and Pb(ii) in real soil samples. The method involved performing SWASV following double deposition and stripping steps at two in situ plated bismuth-film electrodes with drastically different surface properties. Pb(ii) and Cd(ii) were first deposited on an in situ plated bismuth-film graphite carbon paste electrode (Bi/GCPE). When the first deposition was finished, the GCPE was moved to a micro-electrolytic cell to perform the fir
