Organochlorine And Organophosphorus Pesticides

The headspace solid-phase micro-extraction (HS-SPME) method with polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS, 100 μm) fiber is a cost-effective technique for the determination of different pesticide residues in environmental and biological samples followed by a gas chromatography-electron-capture detector (GC-ECD). In the present study more than 147 water samples collected in and around Lucknow city were analyzed. The method detection limits and recovery percentages were found in the ranges of 0.05–0.20 μg/L and 87.1–95.3% respectively. The average concentration of organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides in water samples within the city were ranged between 0.258–0.829 μg/L and 0.143–0.294 μg/L respectively. Organochlorine and organophosphorus pesticides in highway water samples ranged between 0.261–2.80 μg/L and 0.129–0.53 μg/L. Pyrethroid pesticides were not found in any of the water samples tested. The levels of pesticide residues were compared with their MRL values recommended by the Prevention of Food Adulteration Act (PFA), Government of India (1954).

Gas Chromatographic Determination of N-Butyl-N-ethyl-α,α,α-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-p-toluidine and α,α,α-Trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-N,N-dipropyl-p-toluidine in Formulations

Abstract A gas chromatographic method is described for the quantitative determination of N-butyl-N-ethyl-α,α,α-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-p-tolindine and α,α,α-trifluoro-2,6-dinitro-N,N-dipropyI-p-toluidine herbicides in formulations. The sample is extracted with benzene, and equal amounts of sample and reference solution in the same concentration range are analyzed by gas chromatography, using an electron capture detector and an SE-30/Diatoport S column. The method has been applied successfully to laboratory-prepared and commercial samples.

Hair Samples

The occurrence of crimes involving high explosives in Malaysia in recent years has warrant the need for the analysis of high explosives in post blast samples, particularly residues that could be found on hairs of victims. This study reports on the detection of post blast residues of C4 explosives on human head hairs. Prior to a simulated explosion, a bundle of hair (200 strands) was tightly bound to a metal hook at each point of several pre–determined distances from the bomb seat. Hair samples containing post blast residues were extracted by ultrasonication using acetonitrile. Two analytes of interest, cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine (RDX) and pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN) were successfully separated using gas chromatography with electron capture detector (GC–ECD) on an HP5–MS capillary column. It was found that the amount of explosive residues decreased with increasing distance from the point of blast. At the nearest specified distance of 2.5m, the amount of PETN residues deposited on hair was much less compared to that of RDX residues.
