Iridium oxide nanoparticles are grown on a glassy carbon electrode by electrodepositing method. The electrochemical behavior and electrocatalytic activity of modified electrode towards reduction of iodate and periodate are studied. The reductions of both ions occur at the unusual positive peak potential of 0.7V vs. reference electrode. The modified electrode is employed successfully for iodate and periodates detection using cyclic voltammetry, hydrodynamic amperometry and flow injection analysis (FIA). In the performed experiments, flow injection amperometric determination of iodate and periodate yielded calibration curves with the following characteristics: linear dynamic range up to 100 and 80M, sensitivity of 140.9 and 150.6 nAM−1 and detection limits of 5 and 36 nM, respectively. The repeatability of the modified electrode for 21 injections of 1.5Mof iodate solution is 1.5%. The interference effects of NO2 −, NO3 −, ClO3 −, BrO3 −, ClO4 −, SO4 2−, Cu2+, Zn2+, Mn2+, Mg2+, Cd2+, Ca2+, Na+, K+, NH4 + and K+, CH3COO− and glucose were negligible at the concentration ratio of more than 1000. The obtained attractive analytical performance together with high selectivity and simplicity of the proposed method provide an effective and e novel modified electrode to develop an iodate and periodate sensor. Sensitivity, selectivity, the liner concentration range and the detection limit of the developed sensor are all much better than all known similar sensors in the literature for iodate and periodate determination.
