Abstract
Soil was analyzed for the fungicide or fungicide degradation product methyl 2-benzimidazolecarbamate(MBC) or carbendazim by employing commercially available polyclonal enzyme immunoassay (EIA) kits. MBC extraction from soil was done either by an overnight shaking with methanol-water (80:20) or by a 10-min 2 M ammonium chloride-ethanol shake followed by partitioning into methylene chloride. Intraassay and interassay percent coefficients of variation (% CVs) ranged from 2.2 to 13 for the standards and from 7 to 41 for the samples. A total of 101 soil samples obtained from Maine, Florida, and Switzerland were analyzed for MBC using EIA and liquid chromatography (LC)
