ABSTRACT
This paper represents the results of a case study investigating the development of a novel, simple, cost-effective, solventless and sensitive chromatographic method for the determination of volatile pesticides in aqueous samples by an electrothermally prepared pencil graphite (PG). In this study, PG were conditioned by passing a suitable direct current to activate PG by Joule effect. Conditioned PG was used for the extraction of Chlorpyrifos (CP), which is used as case study. The method was also found successful in the determination of CP in real water samples, providing acceptable recovery values (82-111%).
