Abstract
A novel electromagnetic controlled needle valve stationary mercury dro p electrode, allowing formation of mercury drops of macro- to micro-si ze ranges (200 mu m > r greater than or equal to 25 mu m), has been de veloped. Cyclic voltammograms and anodic stripping voltammetry measure ments for the smaller drops (r < 50 mu m) were consistent with microel ectrode behaviour. Another attractive feature is that the electrode ma y be used in any position thus enabling its use in now through systems .
