Electrodeposition

Electrodeposition

Electrodeposition is a technique used to separate an analyte from interferents by electrochemical processes. Here, the analyte is a metal ion that can be deposited on an electrode immersed in the sample solution. The electrochemical setup consists of an anode and a cathode. When an electric current is applied to the setup, oxidation occurs at the anode. At the cathode, which consists of a large metal surface, metal ions undergo reduction and deposit onto the surface.
Electrodeposition can...

Integration of reference electrode (RE) and counter electrode (CE) using Ag/AgCl and bare hydrophilic threads.
Electrochemical characterization using cyclic voltammetry (CV) and square wave voltammetry (SWV).
Physico-chemical characterization using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).

Main Results:

The sensor exhibited an oxidation peak for arsenic at -0.4 V.
A diffusion coefficient of 2.478×10^-10 m²/s was determined.
The sensor achieved a limit of detection of 0.416 μM within a linear range of 0.4–60 μM.
Successful analysis of arsenic in tap water and blood serum samples with remarkable recovery.

Conclusions:
