The critically acclaimed guide to the principles, techniques, and instruments of electroanalytical chemistry-now expanded and revised Joseph Wang, internationally renowned authority on electroanalytical techniques, thoroughly revises his acclaimed book to reflect the rapid growth the field has experienced in recent years. He substantially expands the theoretical discussion while providing comprehensive coverage of the latest advances through late 1999, introducing such exciting new topics as self-assembled monolayers, DNA biosensors, lab-on-a-chip, detection for capillary electrophoresis, single molecule detection, and sol-gel surface modification. Along with numerous references from the current literature and new worked-out examples, Analytical Electrochemistry, Second Edition offers clear, reader-friendly explanations of the fundamental principles of electrochemical processes as well as important insight into the potential of electroanalysis for problem solving in a wide range of fields, from clinical diagnostics to environmental science. Key topics include: The basics of electrode reactions and the structure of the interfacial region Tools for elucidating electrode reactions and high-resolution surface characterization An overview of finite-current controlled potential techniques Electrochemical instrumentation and electrode materials Principles of potentiometric measurements and ion-selective electrodes Chemical sensors, including biosensors, gas sensors, solid-state devices, and sensor arrays

Laboratory Methods in Dynamic Electroanalysis is a useful guide to introduce analytical chemists and scientists of related disciplines to the world of dynamic electroanalysis using simple and low-cost methods. The trend toward decentralization of analysis has made this fascinating field one of the fastest-growing branches of analytical chemistry. As electroanalytical devices have moved from conventional electrochemical cells (10-20 mL) to current cells (e.g. 5-50 mL) based on different materials such as paper or polymers that integrate thick- or thin-film electrodes, interesting strategies have emerged, such as the combination of microfluidic cells and biosensing or nanostructuration of electrodes. This book provides detailed, easy procedures for dynamic electroanalysis and covers the main trends in electrochemical cells and electrodes, including microfluidic electrodes, electrochemical detection in microchip electrophoresis, nanostructuration of electrodes, development of bio (enzymatic, immuno, and DNA) assays, paper-based electrodes, interdigitated array electrodes, multiplexed analysis, and combination with optics. Different strategies and techniques (amperometric, voltammetric, and impedimetric) are presented in a didactic, practice-based way, and a bibliography provides readers with additional sources of information. - Provides easy-to-implement experiments using low-cost, simple equipment - Includes laboratory methodologies that utilize both conventional designs and the latest trends in dynamic electroanalysis - Goes beyond the fundamentals covered in other books, focusing instead on practical applications of electroanalysis

It treats not only the fundamental concepts of electrode reactions, but also covers the methodology and practical application of the many versatile electrochemical techniques available. - Underlines the fundamentals of electrochemistry essential to the understanding of laboratory experiments - Treats the fundamental concepts of electrode reactions - Covers the methodology and practical application of the many versatile electrochemical techniques available
Principles of Polarography is a revised and extended version of an original Czech edition that appeared in 1962 at the Publishing House of the Czechoslovak Academy of Sciences in Prague. Based on a one-term course of lectures for third-year students of chemistry at the Charles University it brings the fundamental results of more than forty years' research in the field of polarography. The book contains 22 chapters and opens with a discussion of the principles of polarography. This is followed by separate chapters on polarizable electrodes used in polarography; charging current; influence of the resistance of the electrolyte on polarographic curves; migration and diffusion-controlled currents; and equation of a reversible polarographic wave. Subsequent chapters deal with reversible processes controlled by diffusion of complex ions; reversible reduction of organic substances; deposition of mercury ions; irreversible electrode processes; applications of limiting currents; polarographic curves for the formation of semiquinones and dimers; and catalytic hydrogen currents.
The present book Applications of Voltammetry is a collection of six chapters, organized in two sections. The first book section is dedicated to the application of mathematical methods, such as multivariate calibration coupled with voltammetric data and numeric simulation to solve quantitative electroanalytical problems. The second book section is devoted to the electron transfer kinetic studies and electroanalytical applications of the voltammetry, such as interfacial electron transfer of the haem group in human haemoglobin molecules, physisorbed on glass-/tin-doped indium oxide substrates, analysis of dyes and metal ions in trace concentrations and characterization of the antioxidant properties of wine and wine products, using a variety of voltammetric techniques and electrodes. The most recent trends and advances in voltammetry are professionally commented.
