Voltammetry

Voltammetric trace analysis is used for determining electrochemically active substances. These can be inorganic or organic ions or even neutral organic compounds.

Voltammetry is often used for supplementing and validating spectroscopic methods and is characterized by

• low equipment costs,
• comparably low investment and operating costs,
• short analysis times
• and a high accuracy and sensitivity,

Unlike spectroscopic methods, voltammetry can also differentiate between different oxidization species of metal ions or between free and bound metal ions.
