Evaluation of a previously published gel permeation chromatographic (GPC) procedure was undertaken to determine whether It can be used for additional organochlorine pesticides. After repeatability studies of many pesticides, the following compounds were approved for Inclusion in the U.S. Department of Agriculture Domestic Residue Monitoring Program: coumaphos-S, stirophos, chlorpyrlfos, ronnel, carbophenothlon, chlorfenvlnphos, phosalone, kepone, captan, llnuron, and endosulfan I and II. Recoveries ranged from 54% for captan to 123% for ronnel. Ranges of CVs varied from 0- 9.5% for carbophenothion to 7.1-47.7% for kepone. Although the minimum acceptable recovery of 50% was attained for all 12 pesticides, the anticipated CV of 20% was waived to Include chlorpyrlfos, endosulfan I and II, and kepone. For a multlresidue procedure involving approximately 40 compounds, these results were within the acceptable criteria.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
