Abstract :

In this study, the possibility of using solid phase microextraction method directly with a new fiber for preconcentration and measurement of butachlor pesticide by gas chromatography was investigated. Polypyrrole/ curcumin coated fiber was used as an adsorbent to prepare the solid phase microextraction fiber from aqueous samples and electrochemical polymerization was employed using cyclic voltammetry method. The properties of the new fiber including adhesion, mechanical strength, and thermal stability were evaluated. Morphology of the prepared sample was studied using scanning electron microscope (SEM). Then the effective parameters on the extraction efficiency of butachlor from aqueous samples including extraction time, extraction temperature, and pH were evaluated. Under optimized conditions, the performance characteristics of the proposed method including detection limit, linear range, and intera day and inter days repeatability were evaluated. The detection limit of the method was found to be 1 ng/l, linear range was 0.067-40 g/l, repeatability intra day was 2.9% and repeatability inter days was 5.0 %. The developed method was used for analysis of water samples from rice fields in northern Iran region as a real sample.
