Abstract A rapid, precise, and accurate method is described for the determination of acetaldehyde in povidone (polyvinyl pyrrolidone). The sample is dissolved in a basic aqueous electrolyte and analyzed using square-wave voltammetry. The proposed method allows for direct measurement of acetaldehyde under gentle conditions, thus avoiding loss of analyte due to volatility of acetaldehyde. The method is specific for acetaldehyde in the presence of other aldehydes and povidone process impurities.

A recently developed membraneless extraction module (MLEM) for sample preparation aiming the analysis of volatile and semi-volatile compounds is applied in the voltammetric analysis of total sulfites in wine. Square-wave voltammetry (SWV) is very advantageous in this case because sulfur dioxide (SO2) is instrumentally directly detected. The developed method shows good repeatability (RSD lower than 5%) and linearity (between 20 to 220 mg l–1) as well as suitable limits of detection (6 mg l–1) and quantification (19 mg l–1). The proposed method was also compared with the reference methodology (an iodimetry, the Ripper method) showing no significant differences in the obtained results.

Drops of nitrobenzene and 1,2-dichloroethane with 0.1 M decamethylferrocene (dmfc) are attached to the surface of a paraffin-impregnated graphite electrode and immersed into various aqueous electrolytes. The oxidation of dmfc and the reduction of dmfc+ cation are enabled by simultaneous transfers of anions between the aqueous electrolyte and the organic solvents. Square-wave voltammetry of this reaction is reported. A linear relationship was observed between the peak potentials of dmfc and the standard Galvani potential differences of the anions. The influence of the anion concentration on this relation is explained.
