This post describes the development of an alanine coated glassy carbon electrode that can detects heavy metals Cu, Zn, Hg, and Pb, Kokab et al 2019. Heavy metals in a fluid are coated on this electrode in cathode mode. Heavy metal cations in detox solutions will theoretically electroplate on the cathode. Then the cathode becomes the anode. Square waves are used to strip the anode of plated metals into their cation form.Could this technique One Day be used to detect heavy metals in body fluids after detox?
