Determination Of Malathion Based On Carbon Nanotubes Modified Electrode Incorporating Acetylcholinesterase, Lu Zhang, Yao-Dong Zhang, Hong-Lan Qi

Journal of Electrochemistry

A biosensor for determination of organophosphorus pesticide based on the acetylcholinesterase and multi-wall carbon nanotubes modified electrode is fabricated.Under the optimal conditions,the chronoamperometric current at +0.70V(vs.SCE) increased linearly with the concentration of malathion in the range from 6.0×10-10 to 6.0×10-9 mol·L-1 with a detection limit of 1.0×10-10 mol·L-1.The recoveries of malathion in lake water is 97% to 105% determinated by this method.
