✦ Synopsis
Lithographically fabricated iridium-based mercury microelectrode arrays are shown to be very suitable for adsorptive stripping measurements of trace nickel in the presence of the dimethylgloxime complexing agent. Variables affecting the response have been assessed and optimized. The sensor optimization has resulted in a favorable and highly stable response, with good linearity and precision (RSD 1.7 %), and a low detection limit (0.5 mgaL with 30 s adsorption). Such adsorptive stripping performance makes the iridium-based microelectrode array very attractive for on-site measurements of trace metals that cannot be plated electrolytically.
