The electrochemical behavior of ammonium was investigated at Ethylene Diamine Tetra-Acetic -modified carbon paste electrode (EDTA-CPE) in NaCl solution. A method was developed for the detection of the trace of this product, based on their redox reaction. The redox peaks of ammonium were observed around -0.50 V and 0.50 V (vs. SCE) in cyclic voltammetry. Experimental conditions were optimized by varying the accumulation time, EDTA loading and measuring solution pH. Calibration plots were linear under the optimized parameters over the herbicides concentration range 0.8 and 16 mmol L-1, with a detection and quantification limits about 9.38.10-7 mol L-1 and 3.21.10-6 mol L-1, respectively.
