Abstract:
Monitoring pesticide contaminants in diverse environmental systems has become a significant concern. A non-enzymatic electrochemical sensor for pirimicarb pesticide detection has been produced by functionalization of the screen-printed carbon electrodes (SPCE) with graphene oxide, ionic liquid, and gold nanoparticles (GO/IL/AuNps/SPCE). Cyclic voltammetry and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques were applied for the electrochemical characterization of the modified electrode in the presence of [Fe(CN)6]3-/4- as a redox probe. The system showed an exponential response in a concentration range from 50 pM to 500 nM of pirimicarb with a sensitivity of 5.74 × 10 -3 µA pM-1 mm-2 , and the Limit of detection (LOD) is 10.30 pM.
