? 2022 Elsevier B.V.This work presents, for the first time, a fast and highly sensitive electrochemical method for determination of three organophosphorus compounds (OPs), diazinon (DZN), malathion (MLT), and chlorpyrifos (CLPF), using a modified pyrolytic graphite electrode (PGE) coupled to batch injection analysis system with multiple pulse amperometric detection (BIA–MPA). The PGE was modified by a nanocomposite based on functionalized carbon nanotubes (CNTf) and silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). The OPs samples were directly analyzed on the modified working electrode surface by BIA-MPA system in Britton-Robinson (BR) buffer 0.15 mol L?1 at pH 6.0. The MPA detection of DZN, MLT and CLPF was performed using two potential pulses, which were sequentially applied on modified PGE at ?1.3 V (100 ms) and +0.8 V (100 ms) for selective determination of these three OPs and working electrode cleaning, respectively. Under optimized conditions, the sensor presented a linear range of 0.1–20 μmol L?1 for DZN, 1.0–30 μmol L?1 for MLT and from 0.25 to 50 μmol L?1 for CLPF. The limits of detection (LOD) and quantification (LOQ) of 0.35 and 1.18 μmol L?1 for DZN, 0.89 and 2.98 μmol L?1 for MLT, and 0.53 and 1.78 μmol L?1 for CLPF were obtained. The proposed method exhibited high sensitivity of 0.068, 0.030 and 0.043 mA L μmol?1 for DZN, MLT and CLPF detection, respectively. Furthermore, the BIA-MPA system provided an analytical frequency of 71 determinations per hour for direct determination of these OPs in water and food samples. The modified PGE coupled to BIA-MPA system showed a high stability of electrochemical response for OPs detection with relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.60% (n = 20). The addition-recovery studies of the proposed method were carried out in tap water, orange juice, and apple fruit real samples, which showed suitable recovery values between 77 and 124%. The analytical performance of the developed sensor provides an attractive alternative method for OPs determination with great potential for a fast and sensitive application in contaminated samples with these pesticides.
