Voltammetric Determination of 4-Aminobiphenyl at Modified Carbon Paste Electrodes
Kalusová, Michaela ; Barek, Jiří (advisor) ; Navrátil, Tomáš (referee)
Amino derivatives of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are well-known chemical carcinogens which should be carefully monitored in our environment. They are amenable to anodic oxida- tion on suitable solid or paste electrodes. This fact was exploited for voltammetric determina- tion of 4-aminobiphenyl on unmodified carbon paste electrode and carbon paste electrodes modified by montmorillonite and sepiolite. The optimum pH of BR buffer for measurement on unmodified carbon paste electrode is pH 2, pH 10 for CPE-SEP and pH 11 for CPE-MMT. It was possible to increase sensitivity of the determination using adsorptive stripping voltam- metry on modified electrodes. The optimum time for accumulation of 4-aminobiphenyl is 5 minutes. The limits of quantification of the order of 10−6 mol dm−3 were obtained for each electrode. After accumulation, the limits of quantification decreased to the 10−7 mol dm−3 . The newly developed method was tested for the determination of 4-aminobiphenyl in model sam- ples of drinking and river water, reaching limits of quantification of the order of 10−7 mol dm−3 .
