          Abstract

          Cadmium concentration in an aqueous medium is quantified using an alginic acid-modified carbon paste electrode. The working electrode was prepared using a homogeneous mixture of graphite powder, alginic acid (AA) and mineral oil. Square wave anodic stripping voltammetry (SWASV) using this modified electrode showed one small well-resolved anodic wave for the oxidation of AA at -0.05 V. This signal shifts toward less positive potential and peak current increases in the presence of CdII. After optimizing the experimental conditions, the anodic peak current of CdII-AA was linearly related to its concentration up to ca. 30.0 µg L-1, with a detection limit of 0.9 µg L-1 at pH 2.0 (HNO3. t acc = 60 s, Eacc = -0.80 V). The method was validated by determining CdII in spiked synthetic sea water (ASTM D665). The modified electrode showed good stability and repeatability.

          A concentração do cádmio em um meio aquoso foi determinada usando-se um elétrodo de carbono ácido-modificado de pasta de alginina. O elétrodo de trabalho foi preparado usando-se uma mistura homogênea de pó de grafite, alginina ácida (AA) e óleo mineral. A voltametria de onda quadrada com redissolução anódica (SWASV) usando-se este elétrodo modificado, mostrou uma onda anódica bem definida com pequena oxidação do AA em -0,05 V. O sinal é deslocado para um potencial menos positivo e a corrente máxima aumentou na presença do CdII. Após a otimização das condições experimentais, a corrente máxima anódica do CdII-AA mostrou ser linear com sua concentração até ca. 30.0 µg L-1, com limite de detecção de 0.9 µg L-1 em pH 2.0 (HNO3. t acc = 60 s, Eacc = -0.80 V). O método foi validado com a determinação de CdII em água do mar sintética enriquecida (ASTM D665). O elétrodo modificado mostrou boa estabilidade e repetibilidade.
