In this study, optimization, characterization, and validation of Adsorptive Square Wave Cathodic Stripping Voltammetry on antifouling gel-integrated microelectrode arrays were reported for autonomous, direct monitoring of cobalt(II) metal species. Detection was achieved by complexation with an added nioxime ligand. The microelectrode array was integrated into a submersible probe to automatically dose the complexing agent and realize an integrated sensing system. For the first time, the potentially bioavailable Co(II) fraction was determined in a river-bay continuum, enabling evaluation of the potential ecotoxicological impact of freshwater-carried Co(II) in the bay. The measured Co(II) concentrations were hazardous for aquatic biota along the continuum. Electrochemical Co(II) data were compared to ICP-MS data in various fractions to determine spatial Co(II) speciation.
We report the optimization, characterization, and validation of Adsorptive Square Wave Cathodic Stripping Voltammetry on antifouling gel-integrated microelectrode arrays for autonomous, direct monitoring of cobalt(II) metal species. Detection is accomplished by complexation with an added nioxime ligand. The limit of detection established for a 90 s accumulation time was 0.29 +/- 0.01 nM in freshwater and 0.27 +/- 0.06 nM in seawater. The microelectrode array was integrated in a submersible probe to automatically dose the complexing agent nioxime and realize an integrated sensing system. For the first time ever, the potentially bioavailable Co(II) fraction was determined in La Leyre River-Arcachon Bay continuum, enabling to evaluate the potential ecotoxicological impact of freshwater-carried Co(II) in the Arcachon Bay. The measured potentially bioavailable Co(II) concentrations were hazardous for aquatic biota along the continuum. The electrochemical Co(II) data were compared to ICP-MS data in various fractions to determine spatial Co(II) speciation.
