Abstract
The authors were concerned with the adsorption of bismuth ions on the surface of calibrated glass bottles during preparation of standard solutions and on the walls of the polarographic cell during analysis by differential pulse polarography. The adsorption can be prevented by treating the laboratory glass by a solution of O,N-bis-trimethylsilyl-trifluoroacetamide before use. The treatment must be repeated from time since its effect weakens by repeated rinsing of the glass.
