Abstract

The potentialities of electrochemistry for in vivo measurements
are discussed. The advantages of cyclic voltammetry at inert electrodes
for this purpose are pointed out. The voltammetric response
of blood serum is explained.Cysteine and ascorbic acid are shown
as suitable electrochemical indicators for in vivo measurements.
A method based on cyclic voltammetry of ascorbic acid as indicator
is suggested for assessment of the blood circulation of kidney determined
for transplantation.
