Utilization of Carbon Paste Electrodes for the Voltammetric Determination of Chlortoluron

Conventional (CPE) and miniaturized (m‐CPE) carbon paste electrodes consisting of a carbon paste filled capillary were used for differential pulse voltammetric determination of chlortoluron in samples of river water and soil, in the latter case after the extraction by methanol. Britton‐Robinson buffer pH 3 with low content of methanol was found to be optimal for the determination. The achieved determination limits were 2.8 µmol L^?1 and 0.34 µmol L^?1 in river water, and 3.1 and 4.3 µg g^?1 in soil, using CPE and m‐CPE, respectively.
