Author Description

The growing development of analytical methodologies based in flow systems has demonstrated the potentialities of the use of these techniques towards automation of analytical processes. Multicommutation is a recent flow technique that presents several beneficial aspects for implementation of automatic analytical systems, but it has been scarcely associated with electrochemical detectors. This book comprises a series of work based on the development, evaluation and application of multicommutated flow systems with amperometric and voltammetric detection. The aim was to put in evidence the usefulness of combining multicommutated flow systems with those electrochemical detection techniques, which allow to perform, under flow conditions, some of the typical procedures of amperometry and voltammetry that have restricted their implementation in automatic systems. The present work should be especially useful for PhD students working with flow systems and/or electrochemical detectors, as well as for researchers and teachers in the Analytical Chemistry field.
