What Does OSWV Stand For?

OSWV stands for Osteryoung Square Wave Voltammetry

OSWV, or Osteryoung Square Wave Voltammetry, is an electroanalytical technique used to measure the current response of an electrochemical system as a function of applied potential. This method is characterized by its use of square wave pulses superimposed onto a linear scan, enhancing sensitivity and resolving power for the detection of trace analytes. OSWV is particularly effective in studying redox processes and is widely applied in fields such as environmental analysis, pharmaceuticals, and materials science.
