Abstract

lectrochemical studies of methyl parathion on novel nanocomposites electrode surface systems reached distinction in recent years because of their application in trace determination. Cyclic voltammetric behaviours of methyl parathion on nanocomposites modified glassy carbon electrodes at different pH in aqueous ethanol media were carried out. Influence of pH led to the selection of pH 1.0 as the best pH for the electroanalysis of methyl parathion. Voltamogram of pesticide exhibits two cathodic and one anodic peak responding at all pH media with the novel modified electrode system. The modified electrode shows one redox couple around the potential range from 0.1 to 0.3 V and one reduction peak around at - 0.75 V with higher peak current responding to the modified electrode. The reduction peaks were selected for stripping analysis owing to their maximum current response. The experimental parameters were optimized using the differential pulse stripping mode. A calibration plot was made. The determination limit and standard deviations were arrived. The applicability of the method was also verified in a sample soil analysis.
