Abstract

The invention relates to the amperometric detection of nitrite ions and nitrogen monoxide by electrocatalytic reduction by means of electrodes (15) modified by an electronically conductive polymer film such as poly-(N-methyl pyrrole) doped by mixed heteropolyanions of formulas: EQU [M.sup.III X.sup.1 W.sub.11 O.sub.39 (H.sub.2 O)].sup.n- or EQU [M.sup.III X.sub.2.sup.2 W.sub.17 O.sub.61 (H.sub.2 O)].sup.7- in which M represents Fe, Rh, Al, Ga, In or Tl, PA1 X.sup.1 represents P or As and n is equal to 4, PA1 X.sup.1 represents Si or Ge and n is equal to 5, or PA1 X.sup.1 represents B and n is equal to 6, and PA1 X.sup.2 represents P or As. It also relates to the films and modified electrodes used.
