Abstract
A novel Two-way Stripping Voltammetry method for simultaneous determination of Au3+ and Cu2+ was reported in this paper. Because of the strongly electrostatic attraction of carbon paste electrode towards Au(Ⅲ) ion at positive potential and the biochemical contribution of Gram-positive bacteria strain DO1, the ion can be determined by cathodic stripping voltammetry. At the same time, Cu(Ⅱ) is reduced readily under the catalysis of ultra-fine gold particles, thereafter it can be determined by anode stripping voltammetry. There is no interference between the determination of Au3+ and Cu2+ . A perfect liner relationship between the concentrations of cations and peak heights in the range of 0.2~1.0 μg/mL (Au3+) and 2~10 ng/mL (Cu2+) respectively were observed. The detection limit is 20 ng/mL for Au(Ⅲ), and 0.5 ng/mL for Cu(Ⅱ). The relative standard deviation of the response to 5 μg/mL Au3+ and 60 ng/mL Cu2+ are less than 3%.
