      <text>Stripping voltammetry in which material accumulated at the working electrode is electrochemically reduced in the stripping step. See figure.Applied potential against time during the accumulation and stripping steps in cathodic stripping voltammetry.
</text>
      <notes>
        <item>A peak-shaped cathodic 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.</item>
