Faraday's law
Faraday’s law is next to the Nernst Equation the most important equation for electrochemistry. It describes the connection between the charge Q passing through a cell and the amount of substance n converted at the electrodes:

Coulometric Detection
Coulometric Detection is an electrochemical technique during which a potential is set. This technique is usually called Chronocoulometry at PalmSens. The current is recorded and shown in a graph versus the time.
