Anodic Stripping Voltammetric Determination of Nitrite Using Carbon Paste Electrode Modified with Chitosan

Abstract: A simple method for anodic stripping voltammetric determination of nitrite using carbon paste electrode modified with biomolecular chitosan, is described. In this method, the electrode is activated electrochemically by scanning 5 replicates over the potential range from +500 to +1400 mV immersing in 0.5 M HCl solution. Following this step, the nitrite sample containing 0.1 M KCl is preconcentrated on the activated electrode at +500 mV for 30 s. The deposited anions are then oxidized by different modes of sweep… Show more

“…Chitosan has a high content of amino and hydroxyl functional groups which are essential for the adsorption and removal of aquatic pollutants [2]. The choice of chitosan as the adsorbent was due to its remarkable physico-chemical characteristics, chemical stability, high reactivity, excellent chelation behaviour and high selectivity toward many aquatic pollutants [3][4][5][6][7][8]. Although chitin can be used as biosorbent whose cost is lower than chitosan, the capacity of chitosan is five or six times greater than that of chitin due to its free amino and hydroxyl groups [9].…”

“…The modified electrode's active surface area was electrically activated by immersion in 0.5 M HCl solution, followed by five cyclic voltammetric scans from -0.2 V to +1 V. This electrical activation led to the protonation of the amino (-NH 2 ) groups of chitosan to form 3 -NH + groups [40]. Cyclic voltammograms were recorded by transferring the chitosan-CPE either in a phosphate buffer (PB), HCl/KCl or in an acetate buffer (AB) solution containing MG at a given concentration.…”
