Evaluation of a mechanically immobilized nickel hexacyanoferrate electrode as an amperometric sensor for thiosulfate determination

A nickel hexacyanoferrate modified electrode was constructed by mechanical immobilization. A reversible peak with midpoint potential of 0.38 V was observed in cyclic voltammetry with 0.1 M NaNO3. Electrocatalytic oxidation of thiosulfate was effective on the modified electrode at a significantly reduced overpotential of 0.5 V and at broad pH range. The modified electrode can be used for the determination of thiosulfate in the concentration range...
