1. A method for measuring electrochemiluminescent phenomena of a sample, said method comprising the steps of:

  • (a) introducing said sample into a cell having a working electrode located within said cell so as to be exposable to said sample;

    (b) applying a controlled voltage waveform to said working electrode to trigger electrochemiluminescence in said sample;

    (c) generating said controlled voltage waveform such that said waveform is substantially sinusoidal in shape in the voltage range for which electrochemiluminescence is triggered; and

    (d) detecting electrochemiluminescent radiation from said sample.
