    Abstract:
    The pesticide diazinon was determined in its insecticidal formulations by square wave adsorptive stripping voltammetry. The method of its determination is based on the irreversible reduction reaction at the hanging mercury drop electrode. The optimal signal was detected at -1.05 V vs. Ag/AgCl in Britton-Robinson buffer at pH 4.4. Various parameters such as pH, buffer concentration, frequency, amplitude, step potential, accumulation time, and potential were investigated to enhance the sensitivity of the determination. The highest response was recorded at an accumulation potential -0.4 V, accumulation time 60 s, amplitude 75 mV, frequency 100 Hz, and step potential 5 mV. The pesticide electrochemical behavior was considered under experimental conditions. The electroanalytical procedure enabled diazinon determination in the concentration range 4.0 × 10(-8)-3.9 × 10(-7) mol L(-1) in supporting electrolyte. The detection and quantification limit were found to be 1.1 × 10(-8) and 3.7 × 10(-8) mol L(-1), respectively. The method was applied successfully in the determination of the active ingredients in the insecticidal formulations Diazinon 10GR and Beaphar 275.
