Abstrakt: The data of the scientometric study of publications in inorganic electrochemical analysis for 1990– 1999 were presented. Most of the published papers (from 60 to 80%) deal with voltammetry and potentiometry. Since 1997, the number of papers on voltammetry has been higher or equal to the number of papers on potentiometry, which is due to the successive development of modified electrodes, the use of ultramicroelectrodes, and the development of stripping voltammetry, including adsorption voltammetry. The role of electrochemical analysis in the development and production of sensors was discussed. The most advantageous methods are potentiometry and conductometry; the role of amperometry is also significant. It was underlined that, although the number of papers on coulometry is low, this method is the most precise absolute method of analytical chemistry. The contribution of conferences on analytical chemistry to the publications on electrochemical methods and the elements leading in the number of publications are considered.
