The polarographic reduction of erythrosin, the disodium salt of 2',4',5',7'-tetraiodofluorescein, was examined at pH 4.7. Three reduction steps were found. The first step involves two electrons and the reduction of the quinone group as in fluorescein. The second step results from the removal of the

Abstract
The polarography of manganate has been studied in sodium hydroxide solutions as supporting electrolyte, particularly as regards the effects of alkalinity, manganate concentration and the presence of formic acid. At alkalinities less than 1 M NaOH reduction passes to Mn^+2^ and then to Mn^0^ along two main waves. In 1 M NaOH reduction yields Mn^+3^ and then Mn^0^. Polarograms in 0.1, 0.5 and 1 M alkali can be used for the determination of manganate in 2.5 Γ 10^β4^ to 2 Γ 10^β3^ M solutions.
