Abstract

Optimum analytical conditions for cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave (SW) stripping voltammetry were determined using mercury-mixed carbon nanotube paste electrode (PE). The results approached the microgram working ranges of SW: 10.0-80.0 <TEX>$ugL^{-1}$</TEX> and CV: 100-700 <TEX>$ugL^{-1}$</TEX> Cd (II); working conditions of 300-Hz frequency, 100 mV amplitude, 1.6 V accumulation potential, 400 sec accumulation time, and 40 mV increment potential. First, analysis was performed through direct assay of cadmium ions deep into the fishs brain core and plant tissue in real time with a preconcentration time of 400 sec. The relative standard deviation of 10.0 <TEX>$mgL^{-1}$</TEX> Cd (II) observed was 0.064 (n = 12) at optimum conditions. The low detection limit (S/N) was set at 0.6 <TEX>$ugL^{-1}$</TEX> (<TEX>$5.33{\times}10^{-9}$</TEX> M). The methods can be used in direct analysis in vivo or in real-time monitoring of plant tissue.
