Abstract

Various voltammetric methods (cyclic, DC, and differential pulse voltammetry) were tested for the title purpose. The last mentioned method with optimized parameters was finally chosen for the determination. A low LOD of 3.62·10−8 mol L−1 and a linear dynamic range from 2.5·10−7 to 2·10−5 mol L−1  were reached. An influence of possible interfering agents was studied as well. The proposed method was used in the analysis of pesticide preparation and of spiked samples of river water.
