The redox behavior of mendelevium (Md) was studied with flow electrolytic chromatography. The $$^{255}$$Md isotope produced in the $$^{248}$$Cm($$^{11}$$B, 4n)$$^{255}$$Md reaction at the JAEA tandem accelerator was used in the electrolytic reduction experiment with the flow electrolytic column apparatus in 0.1 M HCl. It was clearly observed that, applying appropriate potentials on the chromatography column, the most stable Md$$^{3+}$$ is reduced to Md$$^{2+}$$. The redox potential of the Md$$^{2+}$$ = Md$$^{3+}$$ + e$$^{-}$$ couple was determined to be -0.16 $$pm$$ 0.05 V vs. a normal hydrogen electrode.
