N2 - Antimony is an element that is common in the environment owing to numerous industrial applications and, in places, natural occurrence. The toxicity of some antimony compounds ought to place the element at the focus of analytical determination. Electrochemical methods offer a simple approach to antimony analysis, most frequently by use of anodic stripping voltammetry. To-date however, a comprehensive review of the electroanalytical literature has not been reported. Herein electroanalytical determination of antimony is reviewed, along with relevant aspects of its speciation.
