Ultra trace adsorptive stripping voltammetric determination of atrazine in soil and water using mercury film electrode.
In situ mercury film electrode produced in the presence of thiocyanate has been shown extremely useful for highly sensitive adsorptive stripping voltammetric measurements of atrazine down to sub-microg L(-1) level. Operational parameters have been optimized and the stripping voltammetric performance has been investigated using square wave scans. The adsorptive stripping response is linear over the range of 0.5-60 microg L(-1) atrazine, with a detection limit of 0.024 microg L(-1). The method has been applied to the determination of atrazine in soil and water samples.
