Abstract

One of the principal raw ingredients used in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals, nuclear fuel, and semiconductors is hydroxylamine, a mutagenic and carcinogenic substance, ranking high on the list of environmental contaminants. Electrochemical methods for monitoring hydroxylamine have the advantage of being portable, quick, affordable, simple, sensitive, and selective enough to maintain adequate constraints in contrast with conventional yet laboratory based quantification methods. This review outlines the most recent advancements in electroanalysis directed toward the sensing of hydroxylamine. Potential future advancements in this field are also offered, along with a discussion of method validation and the use of such devices in real samples for the determination of hydroxylamine.
