| Summary: | In this master's thesis electrochemical determination of cymoxanil and famoxadone was performed on different types of electrodes. The work was focused on finding out optimal conditions for determination of these analytes in aqueous environments by differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) using a composite fiber rod electrode (CFRE), a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) and a capillary carbon paste electrode (CPE). Cymoxanil/famoxadone shows in aqueous environment BR buffer - methanol (9:1) single peak, whose position and height depends on the pH. As pH optimum for CFRE in the cathodic potential range for cymoxanil, pH 4 was chosen, the GCE was chosen pH 7 in the anodic area for famoxadone monitored by the GCE was chosen pH 4, pH 2 was chosen for the CPE. Under the optimal conditions, repeatability in oxidation and reduction area was verified. The optimum conditions of cymoxanil determination on CFRE and famoxadone determination on CPE were utilized for the measurement of the calibration curves. The second set of calibration curves was measured with addition of cymoxanil/famoxadone. Newly developed voltammetric methods were used for the determination of cymoxanil and famoxadone in samples of river water and soil.
