Stripping voltammetry in which material accumulated at the working electrode is electrochemically oxidized in the stripping step.
Notes: - A peak-shaped anodic stripping voltammogram is obtained. Peak current depends on time of accumulation, mass transport of analyte (stirring), scan rate and mode (linear or pulse), and analyte concentration in solution.
- A solid electrode (see metal electrode), carbon paste or composite electrode, bismuth film electrode, mercury film electrode, or static mercury drop electrode (see mercury electrode) may be used.
