Determination of cadmium(II) ion with a perfluorinated sulfonated polymer-ethylenediamine(nafion-en) modified glassy carbon electrode was studied. It was based on the chemical reactivity of an immobilized layer(nafion-en) to yield complex <TEX>$[Cd(en)_2]^{2+}$</TEX>. The reduction peak potential by differential pulse voltammetry(DPV) was observed at <TEX>$-0.780({\pm}0.005)V$</TEX> vs. As/AgCl. The linear calibration curve was obtained in cadmium(II) ion concentration range <TEX>$5.0{\times}10^{-7}-2.0{\times}10^{-5}M$</TEX>, and the detection limit(3s) was <TEX>$2.20{\times}10^{-7}M$</TEX>. The detection limit of nafion-en modified glassy carbon electrode has been shown about 14 higher sensitivity than a bare glassy carbon electrode.
