Cyclic voltammetry (CV) is a powerful tool in the field of electrochemistry
Dear Mohammad
Yes, it is a powerful tool to estimate electrochemical behavior of materials. Can you know the reactions which take place on cathodic and anodic regions through the number of peaks which appear on upper and lower curves.
if you want to check redox potentials of your compounds you can perform CV . but you have to choose suitable suppporting elcetrode, electrolyte, solvent, and elctrode.
On changing the potential of the working electrode (at a fixed scan rate), current increases at certain potential (Ep) value due to oxidation of the analyte and when the scan is reversed reduction takes place,
the CV curve contains many parameters for the electrochemistry system, it can help us analyse the whole process,recently I try to scan the CV of my electrochemical fermentation system,but I don't gain any useful information till now,so there are many works to do

CV is very powerful and finger printing technique for electrochemically active materials even when material is very minute. The most common way of interpreting CV result is plotting current (y-axis) vs. voltage ( x-axis) in which each peak at particular voltage corresponds to either reduction or oxidation of material depending on sign of the voltage. You can find the basics of CV in Wikipedia or find the attached document.
