    Abstract:
    A new electroanalytical method of voltamperometry at the interface of two immiscible electrolyte solutions (ITIES) is based on electrochemical polarization of a liquid/liquid interface. The resulting current voltage characteristics completely resemble those obtained with metallic electrodes. The charge transfer processes are either the direct ion transfer across the ITIES or the transfer facilitated by macrocyclic ionophores. Determination of tetracycline antibiotics is based on the direct transfer of the cationic forms of these substances in acid media. Determination of valinomycin, nonactin and monensin acting as ion carriers is connected with the facilitated alkali metal ion transfer. In general, antibiotic concentrations higher than 0.02-0.05 mmol/l can be determined with this method. Monensin can also be determined in the extracts of Streptomyces cinnamonensis.
