A novel atrazinium selective membrane sensor consisting of an atrazine phosphomolybdate ion-pair complex dispersed in a PVC matrix plasticized with dioctylphthalate is described and electrochemically evaluated under static and hydrodynamic modes of operation. The sensor is incorporated in a flow-through sandwich cell and used as a detector for flow injection determination of atrazine herbicide. The intrinsic characteristics of the detector in a low dispersion manifold is determined and compared with those of a conventional-shaped sensor. In a phosphate buffer of pH 5, the detector exhibits a rapid near-Nernstian response (52.3 mV/decade) for atrazinium cation over the concentration range 10−2 - 10−5 M. Concentrations as low as 0.3μg/ml of atrazine can be detected with an average recovery of 98.3% (mean standard deviation 0.6%), and the sample input rate is 60 sample per hour. The sensor is used for determining atrazine in herbicide formulations, and in extracts of water and soil. No interferences are caused by herbicide diluents and excipients nor by most common anions and cations normally present in water and soil. The results compare favorably with data obtained by gas liquid chromatography.
