Summary

A method for the determination of nitrobenzene with a sepiolite modified carbon paste electrode is presented. Nitrobenzene is adsorbed on the electrode at open circuit (pH 3.5), and determined by differential pulse voltammetry and cyclic voltammetry at pH 5.5 in 0.5 mol/l KNO3. The calibration is linear up to 0.4 μg × ml−1. The method was applied to the determination of nitrobenzene in wines, beers and cider. The error was ±2% and the standard deviation 5%.
