Abstract

The separation of seven pesticides by micellar electrokinetic capillary chromatography in spiked water samples is described, allowing the analysis of pesticides mixtures down to a concentration of 50 μg l −1 in less than 13 min. Calibration, pre-concentration, elution and injection into the sample vial was carried out automatically by a continuous flow system (CFS) coupled to a capillary electrophoresis system via a programmable arm. The whole system was electronically coupled by a micro-processor and completely controlled by a computer. A C 18 solid-phase mini-column was used for the pre-concentration, allowing a 12-fold enrichment (as an average value) of the pesticides from fortified water samples. Under the optimal extraction conditions, recoveries between 90 and 114% for most of the pesticides were obtained.
