Caution
In this procedure mercury is used. Always carry out the following steps
in a dry drip pan.
There are two types of capillaries which can be mounted into the MME
pro, depending on the application:
￭ Silanized capillaries (6.1226.050) are especially suitable for voltammet-
ric determinations at the HMDE in acidic to slightly alkaline solutions
which do not contain organic solvents.
￭ Non-silanized capillaries (6.1226.030) are especially suitable for polaro-
graphic determinations at the DME or SMDE and for voltammetric
determinations at the HMDE in all types of solutions, especially alkaline
solutions with pH>10 or in solutions containing solvents, where silan-
ized capillaries cannot be used.
