Description	A voltammetric study of the 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP)/Cu(I) system is performed. BAP is an adenine-type cytokinin that elicits cell division in plants and presents antitumor activity when forming complexes with different transition metal ions as copper(I). In the frame of this research field, an analysis of linear sweep voltammetry (LSV), adsorptive stripping voltammetry (AdSV), and elimination voltammetry with linear scan (EVLS) data obtained with a pencil graphite electrode (PeGE), allows us to propose the stoichiometry of the possible complexes formed and the mechanism for total electrode reactions of the BAP/Cu(I) system.
