Limiting current from voltammetry at exposed microelectrodes

# of 7.5 Minute Exposures 2 4 6
Capacitive Current (0.1 V) 0.23 ± 0.03 nA (48)b 0.38 ± 0.08 nA (20) 0.51 ± 0.09 nA (15)
Ferrocyanide current (1 V, anodic) 2.04a ± 0.15 nA (48) 2.45 ± 0.36 nA (20) 2.37 ± 0.34 nA (15)
H2Q current (1.2 V, anodic) 7.57 ± 1.13 nA (9) 12.75 ± 4.68 nA (9) 13.65 ± 5.40 nA (9)
RH current (−0.5 V, cathodic) 4.30 ± .64 nA (9) 8.40 ± 3.08 nA (9) 10.75 ± 4.25 nA (9)
a

The values for ferricyanide are the average of all the microelectrodes that had the specified light exposure. The values for H2Q and RH are the average of a few randomly selected microelectrodes that had the specified light exposure.

b

error is standard deviation of the mean, number of electrodes in parentheses.
