worry about contamination of your IC system you can still inject the

substance into the eluent using a large sample loop (> 500 µL). The

eluent should then be pumped at a very low flow rate (e.g. 0.2 mL/min).
Generally, same conditions should be used as they are needed for the

chromatographic separation (e.g. temperature, pH, eluent etc.).

Example of a scan of a substance (A) with the additional repre-

When using metal electrodes as the working electrode, such as the

gold electrode used here, the reaction products formed by the am-

perometric detection during the scan method can form

layer on the electrode surface and influence the results. For this reason

a hydrodynamic voltammogram is to
