Abstract
The differential pulse polarography technique was applied to the determination of some pesticides containing nitro groups in their molecules. The nitro groups were found to be reduced to hydroxylamines or to the corresponding amines. The effect of medium, particularly of pH of the supporting electrolyte, was examined. The pesticides were determined in concentrations less than 10 μg l-1, which shows primose for the application of the technique to environmental water purity monitoring.
