Abstract

In this current article, a chemical sensor was synthesized PbS functionalized with gelatin quantum dots for toxic diazinon. The measure of toxic diazinon was performed using concentration 0.5 µM, PbS quantum dot-gelatin nanocomposites sensor, pH 6, and time 50 s, wavelength 300 nm, in phosphate buffer solution. Under the optimum conditions, the detection limit linear range was obtained (0.01-20.0 µg L-1). The standard deviation of less than (1.0%), and detection limits (3S/m) of the method (0.01 µg L-1) and quantification (LOQ) of (0.099 µg L-1), for determination of toxic diazinon, was obtained. The observed outcomes confirmed the suitability recovery and a very low detection limit for measuring the toxic diazinon. The Chemical PbS Quantum Dot-Gelatin nanocomposites sensor as excellent sensor was applied to measure and analyze residue toxic diazinon in water samples.
