Abstract A method is described for detection of chlorinated paraffins (CPs) in biological and environmental samples. Sample preparation includes sulfuric acid treatment followed by adsorption chromatography on ilumina, which yields the CPs in one fraction that is almost free of interfering material. Using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry j with negative-ion chemical ionization, the limit of detection is 5 ng (corresponding to the lower ppb range). CP levels of 30 ppm, 200 ppb, ' and 5 ppb were found in sewage sludge, human fat, and sediment, respectively.

Cleanup Procedure

Abstract Imazapyr, an imidazolinone class herbicide, was developed recently for weed control in imidazolinonetolerant corn. Current methods for determining imidazolinone herbicides in crops involve laborious, time-consuming cleanup procedures after extraction. We developed an extremely simple cleanup procedure for imazapyr in corn commodities after extraction with acidic acetone-water by using gas chromatography/mass spectrometry with electron capture negative ion chemical ionization for final detection. Method sensitivity was 50 ppb, with controls showing <5 ppb. Average recoveries from corn forage, fodder, and grain were 98,106, and 101%, respectively.
