Determination of dimethoate in water by cathodic stripping square-wave voltammetry

Abstract

This article describes the direct-determination of the pesticide dimethoate In river water in an alkalin media and accumulaton medium through cathodic stripping voltammetry. By employing an alkaline potential of 30 mV, reduction peak appears at -0.7 V. The detection limit is 1 ng ml-1.
