The main application of CO stripping is for determination of the electrochemically active surface area (<math>ECSA</math>). With respect to [[hydrogen]] adsorption/desorption measurements was found to be more reliable in the assessment of the active area<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Garrick |first=Taylor R. |last2=Moylan |first2=Thomas E. |last3=Carpenter |first3=Michael K. |last4=Kongkanand |first4=Anusorn |date=2017 |title=Editors' Choice—Electrochemically Active Surface Area Measurement of Aged Pt Alloy Catalysts in PEM Fuel Cells by CO Stripping |url=https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1149/2.0381702jes |journal=Journal of The Electrochemical Society |language=en |volume=164 |issue=2 |pages=F55–F59 |doi=10.1149/2.0381702jes |issn=0013-4651}}</ref>.

The desorption charge of CO can be calculated on the cyclic voltammogram as integral of the peak current to which it is associated, after subtracting the contributions of other phenomena such as the [[Double layer (surface science)|double]] [[Double layer (surface science)|layer]] current, which can be evaluated from successive scans<ref>{{Cite journal |last=Pozio |first=A |last2=De Francesco |first2=M |last3=Cemmi |first3=A |last4=Cardellini |first4=F |last5=Giorgi |first5=L |date=2002-03-05 |title=Comparison of high surface Pt/C catalysts by cyclic voltammetry |url=https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0378775301009211 |journal=Journal of Power Sources |volume=105 |issue=1 |pages=13–19 |doi=10.1016/S0378-7753(01)00921-1 |issn=0378-7753}}</ref>.
