    Journal: Talanta; 2005 Oct 15; 67(4):755-9. PubMed ID: 18970236.
    Abstract:
    The adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry technique (AdCSV) is used to determine copper(II) using salicylaldehyde thiosemicarbazone (N, S- donor) as a complexing agent on hanging mercury drop electrode at pH 9.3. Variable factors affecting the response, i.e. the concentration of ligand, pH, adsorption potential and adsorption time are assessed and optimized. The adsorbed complex of copper(II) and salicylaldehyde thiosemicarbazone gives a well defined cathodic stripping peak current at -0.35 V, which has been used for the determination of copper in the concentration range of 7.85 x 10(-9) to 8.00 x 10(-6)M with accumulation time of 360 s at -0.1 V versus Ag/AgCl. This technique has been applied for the determination of copper in various digested samples of whole blood at trace levels.
